Bear decided to watch the snow from indoors:)

Bear

Tonight we had a bit more snow than the previous photos.
Here's when Bear had enough and wanted to go inside.

Come back out and play!

Yogi doesn't want to come inside:)

Yogi

As I was trying to get photos of the girl's reaction to their video, Yogi
wanted to know why I was not photographing him:)

Poor boy

I am not that bad of a mama.
I pushed my boy up the stairs right
after I took this video. He climbs a full
flight of stairs and then cries at the last three
at the landing!

Yogi and the last three stairs

Excuses, excuses:)

It was dark. I am not a cameraman. Dogs move.
[excuses, excuses:) ]
Here it is... a video of the dogs singing after
a firetruck went by. The sound is good!

Doggies singing with sirens

All together

Doggies wait patiently for me to come back home.

well, one pup wasn't so patient:)

Bear and Yogi

I wrote out Schumman's "Kind im Einschlummern" ["Child falling asleep"]
for two guitars. Here's what happened when I played it:) Ginger slept
under my feet and awoke each time I stopped playing to photograph her:)

Yogi

Getting ready to pounce:)

Hah!

The Go'auld are not finished!

Trust me!

Yogi tries to convince Bear that the floor is a good thing to chew on:)

Bear's new collar

Here's Bear with her bright new collar. I made it smaller so the other pups
won't be able to take it off of her.

What?

Doggies!

Bear

Okay Bear, if you won't get up for a photo I will get down and get one:)

Ginger

Ginger has been trying hard to be a good girl lately. Here she poses as if she already is:)

Apple Festival 2008

I could not believe that I got lucky enough to get this magnificent piece
of wood artwork before anyone else! This is by David Bremnan 08/2008.
He is an incredible artist!

This Halloween

I fell in love with this Halloween vest at the Apple Festival. I had to buy it.
It wasn't too long after this that I had Toni carry my wallet!:) With crafts like
this, I knew I would go broke left on my own:):):)

My little boy

Yogi hasn't gotten much bigger lately. He still thinks he can boss around
the girls! :) They set him straight on that!:)

NO! Mom!

Ginger doesn't trust me while trying to photograph her new collar. Yogi chewed on her old
one so much that I had to take it apart and use the hardware to make her a new one.

Ginger's collar

Here! I got the photo! Ginger's new collar!

Bear's collar

Bear looked so expectantly at me after I made Ginger her collar that I made
her one that night! She's a great dog, she doesn't need a collar! But she apparently
thinks it makes her more pretty!:) As if she needs to look prettier!:)

Views From the Inner Harbor, Baltimore, Maryland

There's me after driving all night and staying up all day:)

This is a view of the Chesapeake while we were in the water.
