Photos: First Snow 2013
First snow 2013 looks like winter is here…and I think it’s here to stay! Two days ago the grass was green and the sun was shining. Then 15 cm, or 6 inches dumped down on us. The dogs love the fluffy white stuff. First Snow 2013 Here’s Lily running no the paths though the weighed down trees. Such a little rascal, this one – she eats her body weight in snow each year. I mean, it’s like she thinks it’s a snack or a treat.…

Photos: Thanksgiving 2013
Happy Thanksgiving!! Even though it was yesterday…we’re a little late. This was the first time we (or I, rather) attempted to take some family photos. Thanksgiving 2013 Setting up – Lily is supervising. The tripod was a gift from a very kind old man who we purchased some tools off of – I highly recommend a tripod if you’re evening thinking of using your camera’s self timer. First shots – not too bad. Happy everything is in focus! Second shot (well, each shot took 10…

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…

National Puppy Day!
National Puppy Day Yes! It’s National Puppy Day! We have 2 dogs, but I’ve only experienced Miss Tiger Lily as a puppy. Bella, from what I’ve heard, was full of energy and had to grow into her big Weimaraner ears. Lily, our Great Dane, was a sleepy puppy that loved to live under the coffee table…now she won’t fit. We got her from Michigan and Delta Cargo was kind enough to fly her to Texas where we lived at the time. As a puppy, she…

Lazy Day!
Lazy Day Lazy Lily sitting in the sun being lazy. This look, it’s a way of asking me what I’m looking at! Nap time. Getting comfortable. Such a cute napper. Basically, at our house it’s difficult to get a lazy day with two active pups. Today, however, we took full advantage of the laziness. Time for naps, treats and a few photos. Bella is such a stinker that she’ll wake us up around 6:30am wondering why we’re not right there to feed her. Really? You…
