The Feast

What Orvis wanted for Thanksgiving . . .


What Orvis ended up getting . . .


(We really wanted to give him some Turkey and all of the other Thanksgiving goodies, but he has some pretty crazy food allergies, so sweet potatoes it was! He was just excited about eating an extra meal that day!)

Have Some Pumpkin With Your Pie!

Orvis is excited about the pumpkin pie!

Focused

a bit feminine

We always get a good chuckle when Orvis crosses his legs or stands like a ballerina... 

Look-Alike

This guy looks like Orvis, but his name is Cooper, who loves playing with his best friend, Daisy!

Nemo

This week's guest appearance is Nemo, a five year-old Australian Shepherd I had the pleasure of photographing last week. I'm totally in love with Nemo's eyes!

Even though this image is a bit soft, I still love how tired he looks.

dogs of my life

In light of my recent trip to North Carolina, (where I jumped at the chance to take some pictures of my family's dogs, Rocky & Mason!) I thought I would post a few images of the dogs of my life thus far.

Jack, who was my absolute best friend growing up, was an excellent role model for both Rocky and Orvis, and would lean all 95 lbs. of himself on you until you'd give him some love.



Rocky - lover of chasing squirrels and belly rubs- has also been a great teacher for Orvis.



Lola was our little black lab's first true love- they would often sit together and hold paws. Annie is my dad's beautiful golden who lives in Wyoming.



The newest addition to my family is Mason, a chunky golden retriever. Mason will put anything, edible or not, into his mouth- even my 100mm macro lens, which he mistook for a giant swiss cake roll! (Note: the attempt to eat my lens actually took place minutes after these photos were taken!)



Last but certainly not least ... our crazy, not quite two-year old lab, Orvis!

Happy Anniversary, Michael!

Since I'm out of town today, the day of our three year anniversary, I thought Orvis could help me wish Cain a very happy day!
