Tyson, Gracie, and then some (alieliza)

Posted : 5/19/2008 7:05:47 PM

Some people have been asking lately where the new pictures of Tyson are, so I figured I'd share some. I got a new camera, and thats always a good reason to shoot! (I bought a digital point and shoot for my upcoming trip this summer... its no DSLR, but it'll do the job! :) )

Gracie still has not gotten a hang of the whole "you sit and pose for the camera" thing....

She usually just barks at the camera....

Or just acts like an all around Crazy. We call her "Cracie."

Then again, she can be quite lovely sometimes.

Dogs and my garden... my heart is a flutter (though, I must admit... dogs *in* my garden almost makes my heart stop! Especially when they are trying to eat my flowers!!!)

Tyson, in all his cuteness.

We recently watched my fiance's mothers dog for about 2 weeks... that was interesting... He and Gracie did not previously get along, but they've taken a liking to each other now... as you can see in the next picture... no, really, they have!

He is a weird looking dog.

Here is the "and then some..."

Some of you may remember that last year I worked on a coffee can project (Joyce was ever so generous and send me some empty coffee cans....) Well, I've potted up my own baby spider plants from last year and Im at it again....

And pictures of a couple of pretty little succulents.

My new favorite corner of my porch (I moved our old coffee table outside...)

My newest crazy impulse buy: A humungous staghorn fern. I got a great deal and just couldn't pass it up, now I've got to figure out what in the world to do with it...

My latest investment: a used, and painted, radio flyer wagon (that is now full o'cacti!)

haha, me too. I used to post more when you could just upload them right off your computer... now it gets to be a bit of a pain to upload them to another site, then put the link in your post.... *sigh* so when I DO post pictures, it's usually a bunch all at once.....

I'd never get sick of seeing those pretty pitty faces! they are adorable!!

Yes, yes, we adopted another dog. Gracie came into our lives about 4 months ago. Shes quite the handful, but we are crazy about her anyway! You can see the introduction thread here, when we first brought her home: http://forum.dog.com/forums/p/72420/564082.aspx#564082.

ya that dog is interesting looking ( your mom's dog). your dogs are cutie pies!! i love the coffee can idea, I actually had a similar idea, but I never got around to making them. Although I did make a hanging pot out of a plastic coffee can, drilled some holes in it & used some scrap speaker wire ( the kinda that has a solid sheath - i used the white ones) to make the hangy part....turned out pretty cool, hard to keep watered though - i'm really bad at that part!! obviously you're really good at it!!

I love the pics that show the rugs kicked up. I don't have a single area rug that isn't flipped over, kicked up or in a totally different spot than where I put it. I had to anchor one down with a china cabinet because Max would run across the room, land on it and ride it right under the dining room table.

Or just acts like an all around Crazy. We call her "Cracie." The picture is funny but Cracie is funnier.

Love the color contrasts here.

My latest investment: a used, and painted, radio flyer wagon (that is now full o'cacti!)

It's perfect for that!!
