catching some rays




Dogs always love to sit and catch some sun. That was a nice light and shadow shot. Dylan on the other hand was so so so wanting to be able to draw and paint like me. I can tell you there was a bit of an upset because he couldnt do it. For 6 years old I think he draws rather well and I encourage him to draw. With a little help with the drawing he got to color it and I promised to post it on my other blog if you follow.

marshmallow world






I wonder if the cold slows down computers. It took me a long time to get these uploaded. The video from you tube says it all. I am living in a marshmallow world. All big puffy blobs of it. Snow looks so pretty in the early morning hours and it makes the world look so clean. That is until the plows start mucking up the pristine scene of pure white touched by the colors of dawn.

doggy snow day.



Poor Chelsea can't play in the snow anymore. She does love to eat it. I think she goes out just to have her icy treat. How come dogs dont get brain freeze. We had a spinger spaniel that would run around and catch all the snowballs that you could throw his way. We poor humans, if we eat ice cream too fast we are suffering from the shortest but most intense headache there is. If dogs get brain freeze they sure don't show it.

awesome morning


I took this picture while waiting for the kids to get on the bus. The cloud was so beautiful for about 8:00 am. Just an awesome display of the Creators hand.

winter tree



I took a picture with my camera of the trees trying out various formats. I came up with this sepia tinted picture. It does resemble the old time pictures.

lol beauty and the beast.

I never know which picture will show up first. I took a picture of a beautiful cloud formation during the summer. I know it is still winter, but it has been so cold. I am waiting for some warmer weather. The dog is my daughter Jamie's. She may look cute but she is such a nut. When Jamie was in school, I would wake her up in the morning. That dog would lunge at me to attack an as soon as Jamie was gone she would jump into my bed and snuggle next to me. She is terrified of thunderstorms, but if the door is left open she will run away during one, instead of hiding which is her normal attitude during a storm. Go figure. Beauty is the cloud, guess who the beast is.

Snow and the Queen





Just a couple pictures I took of the recent snow and of course the Queen of the house.
