***sNoW dAyS***











Thatcher hasn't seen much snow in his life, but he saw a lot of it at Christmas. He loved it. He kept planting his nose into it. I think it must have bothered him that he couldn't smell as well as usual through the thick white stuff. Here are some of my favorite moments caught in the snow...

It's been a while...

The Final Shot chosen for the Christmas card!





I got licked in this one.






It's been a while. I got tired of posting. Couldn't really thing of much to post. Not that we haven't done anything. We've done stuff. We had a good fall. I could have posted stuff, but just didn't. I think I've decided to devote the blog mainly to Thatcher. There are a several reasons for this. I wish I would have started when we first got him. It'll make for a nice documentary after all, in the very least. Second, I have to prove to my husband that he's not just a dog. He's a member of our family. Third, I enjoy writing about him and taking pictures of him. He's a funny guy.


We'll start with a review of our Christmas card this past year. I set up my brand new Canon camera Brandon bought me (yay!) and put it on continuous shooting mode to ensure we would get at least one good shot. Taking photos with a dog involved is tricky after all. We did finally get a legit shot worthy to send in the mail to all our friends and family, but the other shots cannot go undocumented. Roll the camera....


Thatch didnt' understand at first that he was supposed to face the camera. And, yes, I did get slobbered.
