Positively Peden Photography

This weekend, my family dog Shelby was having a hard time breathing and was shaking, not eating and just wasn’t acting like herself. My dad took her to the vet today and they think she had cancer. She was really anemic and they said her body was just shutting down. She was put to sleep, and my dad was with her when she went. He said he could feel the relief when she went, so I know that she’s in a better place…. She was about 13 years old, and we had her since she was 2. She was such a good dog, and I will definitely miss her. =(

This picture was taken yesterday. While my mom was weeding the garden, I sat on the porch to get some fresh air since I was sick and Shelby came out to lay in the sun and get fresh air as well. Even with how bad she was feeling, she stuck close to everyone in the family.

I know I’m behind yet again, but the laptop has been broken (that’s where I put all my pictures) and now it’s fixed but I have Bronchitis, so I’m just not really up to taking pictures…. I will try to get caught up this week, and if not then I might just take a couple more weeks off and make them up at the end of the year… I hate being behind all the time, but it really wasn’t my fault this time. Lol. Sorry to anyone who was expecting to see some pictures… =(

My mom picked me up again today and on our way out of Snug Harbor, we stopped to take some pictures of some cows that were up against the fence on the side of the road. There’s two other pictures of them in my February gallery. These cows were cute cause one was licking the other cow’s ear. <3

Today my mom picked me up to go to Walmart with her and we saw this blimp in the sky. I didn’t get any really good pictures of it, so there’s this one and two others in the gallery of the blimp. I was taking the pictures out of the moving car. This one was kind of weird though because it really focused on the blimp itself, but everything else is blurred out… You can see the blimp in the telephone wires – it’s kind of tiny.

I changed the site around quite a bit and customized the layout all on my own. Everything you see on this page, I did myself. =) I’m getting pretty good at editing the codes and everything. The new calendar is one that I found in the WordPress plugins. It puts the picture from that day’s post in the square for each day. I really liked that, but it takes up a whole page (in the top menu) rather than being in the sidebar, so it will take some getting used to. Also, I need to insert pictures a different way in each post for them to show up on the calendar, so I need to go back and edit each post, so that will be something that I will get caught up on soon. Hopefully it doesn’t take too long…. I don’t plan on doing it for ALL my posts, since that would take forever, but I will do it for all posts in 2010. Check out all the new things I’ve changed and let me know what you think! =)

I’m changing the site around a little, so if you happen to come to the site while I’m doing it, it will probably look a little crazy… I’ll let you guys know when I’m finished. =)

I saw these geese out in the water and in the yard and thought they deserved some attention. They stick around our yard all the time and you can go outside just about any time during the day and see at least one goose out there.

And please ignore the pile of tissues on the little shelf behind him… I have a cold and I’m constantly blowing my nose. =P

This tree is in our front yard. The polarizing lens filter really made the sky blue. =)

The wisteria in our front yard is dead right now, but there are little fuzzy pods all over it. I thought they were kinda cool looking. This was taken with my Minolta.
