Family Pictures and a Day at the Vet!!

We took some casual family pictures the other day and I thought I would share a few with you. Now, keep in mind that Riley is about 3 1/2 months old. So, yes, he's not very good at smiling for the camera-- but he's a lot better than a 3 1/2 month old child would ever be. In that case, go Riley.

So this was probably the best one of all three of us. It's just not convenient to try and take a picture of yourselves-- reaching out as far away as possible. Yeah, you know you've tried it too. But hiring someone to follow us around so that we can get a good picture just isn't logical. But! I did just buy the coolest tripod at the DOLLAR STORE! Soooo excited. Balancing the camera on anything (a ledge, a wall, a fire hydrant, etc.) and then running to be in the picture was one of Freddy's talents. Really, he's amazing at it. But now-- we've got our handy 5 inch tripod to assist us. Ok-- on to the next one!
Awww look at my handsome boys together... How cuuuute...
The picture before this was wayyy better... or totally would have been. But I forgot to zoom out before I took it, so it was a great shot of like our eyes and noses. Gosh dang. I hate when that happens...
Ohhh, look at Riley... what a cute little puppy!!!
And there he is, worn out after his photo shoot... What a trooper...

And then on Saturday we went to the vet. Riley loves the vet's office. And loves our vet, Dr. Dice, even more. He gets sooooo excited to be there. And it was a nice little check up. She did like a physical on him and it was so nice for us to hear all of the great things about our canine's development. So he gets to go get his rabies shot in like a week or two and he can go out in public then!! Hooray!! We've been waiting and waiting to be able to take him out... but before we had to worry about him getting parvo. He's only days away from being totally protected!!

Let's see... Freddy's team won their indoor game last week! Yay! Within the first, ummm, three minutes they were down 3-0 (Not a good start). But then they came back to win 5-3-- the other team was suuuper lame and kept wanting to fight. If I was the ref, I would give them all yellow cards (which is the indoor soccer equivalent of a red card in real soccer) for all their foul, foul language. But regardless, go our team. They play Wednesday nights and up until now the games have started at 9:00 or even 9:30! Not cool, since so many people are married and some even have little kids and we want to go to bed earlier... but I think they'll switch our team to start at like 7ish from now on... hopefully anyway...
