The pasture is loaded with bluebonnets this year! Thank goodness! We only had a handful of flowers last spring, and it was just dismal. We had a few HOT days last week, so I knew I needed to get out and take some photos before the flowers were gone.
Miss Daisy was LESS than thrilled, as you can see.
Then something across the pasture caught her interest...
Mister Farley thought the entire scene was just too boring, but he did an OK job of listening to me -- he just wouldn't LOOK at me.
But he did think the flowers smelled nice!
Oh Anna your dogs are so sweet! They are just gorgeous in the field of flowers! Great pics!

Anna,
I love the photos of the farm animals, don't get me wrong, but I have missed pictures of the kids! I am so thrilled to get to see how Miss Daisy and Mr. Farley are doing these days! I miss them a lot (even have photos of them up on the wall with my kitties)! They probably would have been more 'photogenic' with treat incentives! Keep that in mind for future photo shoots. YOU CAN NEVER GIVE TOO MANY TREATS TO GOOD PUPPY DOGS! :-)
Thanks again, Manetta

I love seeing pictures of Ms. Daisy and Mr. Farley. They are so beautiful especially against the blue bonnet backgroud! Give them extra hugs and kisses for being good sports!

Mine won't look at me either... She does it on purpose- as soon as the camera comes out! They are both beautiful!

What fantastic pics! I love how Daisy is telling you that she isn't too happy about having her picture taken - just cracks me up! And Mister Farley, could that shot of him looking like he's smelling the flowers be any more precious! Oh, and the blue bonnets are gorgeous!

Oh how beautiful, Anna. We took pictures of the children this afternoon so send for their mom for Mother's Day (in Afghanistan) and I was wishing there were some Bluebonnets to set the backdrop of the pictures to. Alas, we just used some flowers in our front yard. Your Bluebonnets are gorgeous...

Oh Anna, these are fantastic photographs of your 4-legged family members. Having a golden myself, I was particularity drawn to the sweet picture of your golden smelling the flowers. What great shots you captured. TFS

Those are some of my favorite flowers, and there's nowhere that grows 'em better than Texas! What if you put Alan in the field? Would he look bored and ignore you too? :)

Gorgeous pictures, Anna. I'll bet its hard not to just stand and stare at all that beauty for hours. What a treat!

The flowers are lovely. We can't grow bluebonnets in IA. Thanks for sharing.
You did great getting photos of the less than coopertive subjects. I have tried for weeks to get a good photo of husbands dog so I can use it for Dogs 1st Birthday in 2 weeks! My little Kodak digital is TOO slow and William NEVER sits still. LOL

Trying to do some blog catching up today! Just reading your blog makes me tired! You guys seem busy, happy on the farm! Can't wait to share the pics of the new babies with my DDs! I think it is neat that you are helping me to educate my city girls!
Posted by: Beth | April 26, 2009 at 10:47 AM
Oh MY what gorgeous pictures!! Love them all!

I believe that she is allergic to flower pollen, after a certain age a girls body chemistry can change? right? Or, no cookies no loaves of bread snatched off the counter, no people food and no tummy rubs = a tongue stuck out at the camera? right. That's my story and I'm sticken to it! Love, Dad

Is Ms Daisy sticking her tongue out at you??? Cheeky girl! LOL
I love these Spring shots you take of the dogs in the bonnets every year! :-)
