We’ve had stormy and rainy weather most the day yesterday, and today, but last week was mostly a glimpse of why I love Oregon so much… beautiful summer weather! To celebrate, the dogs and us lounged outside a lot, and even BBQed all week!
Oh yes Galaxy, so, ummm… graceful?
Of course as usual, [...]
Here’s an adorable video of Sparkles having a blast preforming some of her favorite tricks.
She still has ‘goofy puppy brain’, but is doing great in her training despite! I can’t wait to see how she progresses as she grows up, and how many more tricks she learns. She’s such a fun, happy girl! [...]
Sparkles had her big first birthday bash on saturday. We bought her an adorable birthday dress (Dea picked it out herself), and took a pics we posted on facebook, but I didn’t make this blog post yet. WHOOPS! I don’t think she minds, as she loved the cookies she got, and her [...]
What can I say, I’m a snow bunny! Dea likes the snow too, and we almost never see it here on the Willamette Valley snow. While I love living so close to the ocean, I think I’m better suited for east coast, with snow, and fall color! Oh well, I take what [...]
I’ve been wanting to play with fisheye view photos, but can’t justify the $600+ for a decent fisheye lens. I stumbled across a fisheye converters for under $40 online, and decided I needed to try it… OMGoodness, so much fun! I’m using it on my superdeduper 50mm canon lens, and really love [...]
I got a new camera this week, but haven’t had much chance to play with it, with our poor weather, so I set up a mini studio area in our livingroom. With the help of Dea, we got some photos of Spark and valentine toys. The other dogs weren’t as willing to pose… [...]
For Sparkles 4/52 photo, Spark’s ‘other Mommy’ suggested I try a bubble bath. Being the terrible person I am, I ran strait to the bathroom and started up the water! Unbelievably, Spark was her usual trooper self. There was not one complaint about the tub, bubbles, or the ducky!
I forgot to post [...]
I meant to post these around Christmas time but forgot! I’d been eyeing NanjoDogz work for a while, and when I saw her ladybugs with dogs I could not resist! I decided to get myself a Traum pendant, and Dea a Spark pendant, and a ladybug bracelet charm. I gave Dea hers [...]
It’s been gloomy, and rainy this week. This is freshly-bathed Sparkles, sulking on the couch, bummed that I won’t let her clean self get all muddy!
For my 52 Weeks for Dogs project.
After seeing how much fun Amanda at Many Muddy Paws had on the project last year, I decided to join in on the fun! This is a year-long project where you post one photo a week of the same dog, for the whole year. The goal is to be creative each week, stretching [...]
