Is it just me, or is that stone step perhaps getting smaller?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~Sigh.

At least we got two years worth out of his "Gossie boots." And two photo shoots, of course.

As Promised.... Photo Shoot 1

I FINALLY figured out how to use Photobucket's slide show, (I know, I know, it is easy as pie, I have NO IDEA what took me so long to get it rolling.) My computer has not been at it's 100% best, and I feel a visit to Dr. Best Buy is in our very near future. I do not think it is a virus, but a problem that the computer has had, um, since I have had it. (And you wonder why I can't even grow bamboo.) Something about the back up. (And YES, I did exactly what it would say, but for some reason that was not good enough for Mr. HP.) Moving along to the real purpose behind this post. The Fall Photo Shoot, Take I. HOPEFULLY this works. If not, you may hear me screaming from wherever you are. You have been warned. :)

Okay, SCRATCH ALL THAT!

I on the absolute brink of giving up. Surely to goodness there has to be ONE STINKING SLIDESHOW PROGRAM that won't "crash" my simple as pie blog! Slide, which is what I have used since beginning bloggin, no longer works for me, and neither has anything else I have tried, EVEN PHOTOBUCKET!!! What I have done is provided you with a link to the direct slideshow on Photobucket. There has to be an easier way. I shall try to find it. Help, Anyone?

Click thumbnail for the slideshow.

"Sneak Peak"

Okay, I haven't got the slide thing going yet, so I am moving along for the moment and will share some of Fall Photo Shoot (Part I*) below. Here are some that DID NOT meet our usual standard of gorgeousness Dylan usually portrays in our shoots. Ahem.

Grammy was our props lady, and did her very very best, and I thank her so so much. (Hence the Part I) *We will try it perhaps one more time with my usual props lady, Aunt Susie, and when Dylan is in a better mood than he was today.

Til I get the "real" ones edited, here are some outtakes.

And we're off to a rip roaring good start.


Perhaps feeling some Irish roots and doing a little jig?


I must say Sir Mickey was by far the best participant in today's little snap fest.


Actually, I love this one. He is showing us that he is, in fact, a "bad boy" and is growling. We were saying, "Sit on the step... blah blah blah... You are such a good boy we know you can... etc.." and he would make this face and say, "No I not. I a bad boy. GRRRRRR." Yeah, he's that rotten!


We ended the picture taking when he threatened to call Aunt Susie on us, the equivalent to 911 in his little world.


Like I said, hopefully there will be a Part II. Thank you Grammy and Poppy for your involvement today. I will have the "real" pictures up when I edit them. Happy Sunday!
