jeremiah, hannah, and posh • lubbock, tx

Last week I had a lovely photoshoot with Lubbock photographer Hannah Foley and her husband, Jeremiah. I've known Hannah since they moved here a couple of years ago (wow, has it been that long?). We realized we had several friends in common and then decided to be friends ourselves! I have so enjoyed getting to know Jeremiah and Hannah- they are fabulous and gracious people with real hearts for the Lord. We began our shoot at their newly-purchased home in Tech Terrace and then took their Scottie, Posh, for a walk around the neighborhood. (Yes, Posh is the smallest female from Willy and Lola's last litter- it was so crazy to see my dogs' personalities in hers!)

scottie puppies • 3 weeks old

I've had SEVERAL requests for new pictures of the puppies- so here they are! They are now 3 weeks old, have their eyes open, are beginning to walk, and have little nubs for teeth. These guys are such a sweet bunch. They really love to be cuddled together- more than our last litter. 

Incredibly, we've already sold 3 of them! It's been such a blessing- I'm sad that this will be our last litter- but it sure is a good one!

Puppy #1 (silver ribbon) Black, Male

Don't worry- I had parental supervision. :)

Puppy #2- Male, Red Wheaten (He will be a strawberry blonde color)

Puppy #3- Male, Wheaten (this guy is tentatively sold)

Puppy #4- Black, Female (She is sold, and already has a name- Posh! How cute!)

Puppy #5- Black, Female (She is sold as well)

Puppy #6- Black, Male

The whole bunch! 

This little guy was so sleepy!

All of the black dogs have little white goatees (some more than others). Here you can see Posh's!

Today they got their first taste of real food. It went very well!

puppies + flowers • the things that make life good

Last week I was at Sam's, and noticed how gorgeous the carnations looked. This is not a common occurrence. I hate carnations. But these were pretty. So, I bought them...with some pretty yellow flowers (anyone know the name of them)? 

I was able to make three small vases of them and put them all over my house. It is so refreshing to have them around. I think I'll do this more often.

I shot these with my new macro lens. I also thought you guys might enjoy them as desktop images. You can download them at a larger size below for personal use!

Flower 2

If you keep up with my Twitter or Facebook acount, you know we welcomed 6 little puppies yesterday! I snagged a few shots of them sleeping in their box. At this stage, they look a little bit like mice! They are amazingly active, though. 

This little girl (and several others) have the same marking as our male, Willy. We picked him because of his little white goatee.

Lola has been such a fantastic Mommy. Besides having them all without any help, she has made sure every one is well fed and very clean. There is always one resting right under her chin.

I'll post more as they get older (and cuter!). Happy Tuesday!
