Jenny Sasser is someone you don't forget. Like, ever. It was no surprise that Jenny Sasser's Senior Superlative was “‘Most Likely to Say Hi,” in a class of 500 at a Northern Virginia High School. What would have been a surprise? The Superlative, “Most likely to own a dog.” 20 years from that picture in the yearbook where she hung out of a window to say hello to the world, Jenny now opens a window into her home for the world to see her life as a Goldendoodle breeder with her 7 kids and a husband she's crazy in love with.  In a social media world that can move to fast and be edited into perfection, Jenny invites you to have a virtual but very real seat on her couch, a late night pan of brownies with her teenagers, who will never be to cool for puppy kisses, a toddler who won't go to bed, and to meet her neighbors, because if it's puppy time, you know someone is going to be over for “Sunday with the Sassers.” It's always a party.Follow Jenny and Sassadoodle Puppies on Facebook.Follow Jenny on Instagram.Have one more moment?
