My 2010 Challenge

My goal for 2010 is to participate in the 365 day project (hence the blog), my reasoning is to learn more about photography, and become a better picture taker. The 365 project, you take a picture everyday, and at the end of the year you have become a better photgrapher and/or photos that have catured everyday of 2010...pretty priceless.

So here is OUR 2010...

Day 141


Playing with Alex's new toy from his birthday....They love anything with How To Train Your Dragon...especially this one

Day 140


No, we are not crazy, and decide to get another dog, we are dog sitting my sister's dog.  Sophia is so sweet and so GOOD.  We will dog sit her anyday....but I think she may be over Jax who always wants to play and LOVES her long ears ;).

Day 139


Didn't think we would ever get to this point, but, YAY, we did, Jax uses the restroom outside instead of in now, and he even jingles the bells to let know he need to go outside.  One thing I'm learning to deal with is the door always dirty....I just cleaned the glass on the door that morning.

Day 138


Loves a game of  tug-o-war....he is definitely getting stronger

Day 137

Day 136


Jax has been such a great puupy, and has learned quickly.  He is still puppy, though, and hard to get him to hold still for a pic, and when he does he is usually like this...ready to have his belly rubbed.  He has at least gained 10 lbs since we brought him home, has learned to hit a bell hanging on back door to go potty, has learned a few commands, and has stolen our hearts.

Water day at school
