Awesome Cloud Pictures :D

 I was at work the other morning right as a cold front came through.  The clouds were awesome so I grabbed my camera and went outside to get some pictures.  It didn't really rain (just some sprinkles) and there was some lightning off in the distance (no thunder so it wasn't close), so it wasn't bad.  Just a cold front coming through.  So what do you think??  Click to enlarge to see the full detail of the clouds.

 

 

 Do you see the face in the one above?  In the center under the words....

Snails!!

 My best friend is working out of the state for six months so I'm ..... fishsitting?  She has two Betta fish that I'm keeping for her.  They have a really cool one or two gallon tank that has a divider (so they can't fight; Bettas are also known as Siamese Fighting Fish lol).  It even has a cute little filter on it.  I was having a problem battling algae so I decided to get a couple of snails (one for each side).  I got a gold one and a dark brown one.  Check them out!  Aren't they cute in a slimey way?  They're doing a great job cleaning up the algae and the Bettas are leaving them alone, so I think it's working out well.

 

Floating in their little bag to acclimate to the tank temperature.

 

 Turned loose to battle algae.  

You can kind of see the beautiful blue Betta in the above picture.  They are sooo hard to photograph.  Especially the black one.  I'm finding out the brown snail is hard to photograph too!

 

The gold snail climbing on his castle decoration.  :D  I like them!

Jackal Pictures

I can't resist!  More pictures of my adorable Jackal!  He is so photogenic huh?  :D

 

 

A few of Jackal's favorite things . . .

 Been trying to take more pictures lately and wanted to share a few of Jackal.  So I figured I'd show you some of Jackal's favorite things. :D

 Playing outside.  

I wish he hadn't been quite so close to me so I could get his whole tail in the picture, but I still like how his face is framed.  :)

Posing for the camera.

Okay, so posing (sit/stay and down/stay) isn't one of his favorite things (it is one of mine), but he sure is good at it!

 Going with me to feed the horses.

Going for a ride in the car!

Spoiled Pups!

 Wow only three posts for August!  Oops.  I'll try to get more Appreciation posts up asap.  :)  For now though, in case you guys were starting to think the pups were being royally neglected, I have photographic evidence of them being spoiled.  :)  They always have bones to chew on, but I occasionally add new ones to their collection because chewing off the flavored crunchies on the outside (of store bought bones) makes them soooo happy.  Normally they get raw bones, so this is a fun treat.  Here's some pictures of them enjoying their nommies.  

 

"Oops, mom, I broke it!"

Jackal is a very aggressive chewer hehe.

 

 

 Isn't Storm's little grimace so cute?  :D

 

 

I hope you enjoyed the pictures.  Now.... I'm going to clip my dogs' nails because I just realized how long they are LOL!!!
