Pup-Date

We went and had a visit with Sadie’s brother, Marco, two weeks ago.  As you can see, I need to figure out my camera settings.  The pups move constantly and I got a lot of butt shots! Sadie was tuckered out by the time we got home.  🙂

Caught by the iphone

I made banana bread this weekend and left it out to cool.  Marcus cut himself a piece and joined me in the family room. Sadie was MIA.  I told Marcus to check the kitchen, and this is what he found…

We have some behaviors to work on!

It was a cooler 95 degrees this weekend and Sadie spent a lot of time outside.  The following 2 pictures were taken Saturday & Sunday evening…

Love her!

July Cottage Fun

I am so behind on my posts… here is a snap shot of our July vacation at the lake.

Much more to come.  🙂

New Camera, Take Two

So after much thought, I returned the DSLR camera and purchased a Nikon CoolPix.  I really want great 4×6 pictures AND a tiny camera.  The DSLR had great prints, but it was HUGE!  Just not practical for me.  This Nikon has a good lens with a great zoom range and is very user-friendly.  I have not printed any photos yet… how many backyard Sadie do I need?  😉  But, I’ve been pleased with the pictures as I see them on our computer.

We have plans to go to the top rated dog park in Missouri, so more beautiful Sadie to come!

New Camera, Same Beautiful Springer

I am totally on the fence about my new camera.  It’s a DSLR and I think it will take great pictures, but it is huge!  I have been playing around with it and getting some good shots, but I’m not sure it is what I really want.  The proof will be in the prints.

A huge down side to the camera is size.  It is not easy to keep with you everywhere.  This is a great example; the camera was in the bag, in the house and I missed Sadie swimming in my parents fish pond.  I caught the after shot.  Boo!

Sadie had a great time at our cottage this past week.  I have many more swimming shots to come!  😉
