bits and pieces

It's hard to believe how quickly time is passing since we arrived here. I looked at the calendar earlier and realized it's already the last day of March! Fortunately it is Saturday, a day for laziness and staying (mostly) indoors, catching up with my paint brushes and keyboard.

I felt my blog layout and design was a bit overwhelming while also restricting. I have re-designed, simply but smoothly, most importantly with room for larger images, because I feel my photos have been less-than-impressive when sized down (not that they are too great anyways.) I also want to stop editing them quite as much, mainly because I don't have the time to adjust every single image, especially since my lack of photoshop (and related skills) limits what I can do to them. I do wish to have beautiful eye catching images like I see on many of the lovely blogs I read, but I don't know how to achieve that with the camera and programs I have access to. Any help or advice will gladly be heard :)

Anyways, here's just a few shots from the week. I've been working on some ideas for posts involving life on the farm and how to tie this new life we are living into my blog more successfully. There are so many animals and activities constantly, that focusing on one-thing-at-a-time is more difficult than it would seem.

Justin and Savannah's Wedding - The Reception

The ceremony was simple and sweet, and the reception was the perfect party. A band on the porch, delicious food and drinks, cake and dancing. It was an epic night for everyone involved.   Until next time, Angela Kelly

puppy play date

Yesterday Trilli got to have a puppy play date with her best friend, Oreo, and a new boyfriend, Yeti. Everyone in our group has a dog or two, so socializing them is essential. With several large breeds covered in our pack, they can be a bit much at first. Oreo (the pit bull) is quick like lighting, nudging the others with her nose and batting her paws. Trilli (husky and lab) loves to play but has the biggest mouth, constantly barking. We're working on that. Yeti is a basset hound and great Pyrenees mix, still growing and just beautiful. He got along with the girls wonderfully, outside taking turns pouncing on each of them. It's great to watch a pack of dogs together, it's so natural for them, their own kind; friends.  Hopefully next time I'll remember to bring my camera! Until next time, Angela Kelly

the dogs of luna acres - always ready to go

Our little farm is quite over run with animals, although most of them not the working farm type. The three dogs take turns guarding the place and sleeping on the couch. They all have their flaws and strengths, but not one of them what most would consider "well trained". We love them all the same, we know it our own fault for not working harder for them. We are blessed with space for them to run relatively free on their own. The yard this time of year is littered with deer legs and bones, the occasional head or spinal cord. It's a good life for these dogs.  Trilli and Dakota ready to go Dakota eating the snow Bandit, the oldest pup, is still always ready for a walk, even if he doesn't make it all the way there the view this afternoon  It's funny, even with all the freedom, they are always ready to go for a walk.
