Thursday Afternoon Cows
Thursday Afternoon Cows A few weeks ago I was driving into town when I noticed a little calf on the wrong side of the fence. He was scared. Mooing so loudly! His parents (or aunts and uncles) were mooing loudly, too – but in this, I’m going to charge at you, kind of way. In the end, we got the little guy back on the right side of the fence. These photos are of a much calmer group of cows – cows that aren’t mooing…

Two Dogs and a Wedding Dress
Two Dogs and a Wedding Dress Today is our two year anniversary and I want to do something special for my husband. About 3 weeks ago, our weimaraner, Bella, got sick, however, she’s okay now, or will be. When we though she might not make it, all I could think about was what if I forget her – all of her quirks, her expressions, her eyes. So, I took this opportunity to take some photos! She looks pretty happy, and Lily, well, she just looks…
