Friday Foto Finish Fiesta, 2009.08.07

Late this afternoon I was trying to get some candid pictures of my favorite redhead.
Everything was going great until he noticed.
Then he had to pick his feet.
I told him to look off into the distance. This was the result of that instruction. He did exactly what I said, but not what I meant.
“Can you take a picture of me calling the dog,” he asked.
Here is a picture of a posed child with a great smile and a dog with one very white eye.
And a fake smile on the little boy and two evil-looking white eyes on the dog.
Boy looking directly at the dog, dog smiling.
I am happy with this picture. In addition to a very handsome boy and the dog finally having a closed mouth, our property looks lush and green.
Alas, we are not lush and green. Cammie is demonstrating that she lives in a land being ruled by Creeping Charlie.
Are you ready for some entertainment? Join us! We are low-maintenance, non-shedding, and more fun than whatever it is you are supposed to be doing!
1. In your Phriday personal post, include a phavorite photograph (like how I did that?) and a brief description of why it is your phave. Anything at all works for me … one picture, more pictures, a video … even if you participate it another blogger’s Friday event you can double up as long as you link back to me within your post.
2. My advice is that you jump on board now bephore everyone in the nation gets involved and there are no mega-giga-y2k-bytes lepht phor you!
3. Mr. Linky and I have finalized our divorce. Leave a link to your blog within your comment, we’ll find you and visit your place. I pinkie promise.

Even though some of these shots are posed, they're still keepers, don't you think? I'm linking up early, 'cause I'm on my way to the beach…take care!
yeah, I am back to bloggyland and glad to see your phun post!
Ok, those are fun shots and yes, very lush looking yard. Those white eyes are kinda scary! hehe
I love those shots – the green really is a beautiful background for a beautiful boy and a beautiful dog.

Oh yeah… ps HATING Mr Linky right now! Paid for an account and I am divorcing him too! UGH!
I tried MCKLinky this week, but wasn't thrilled with how much room it took up…
I love that first picture – beautiful.
I have a little laugh at: http://juggelingactoflife.blogspot.com/2009/08/friday-photo-finish-fiesta-michale.html
Great shots. What a cute little boy and a scary looking pup.

Great pictures, but I must admit that is one mean looking dog, but I am sure he is very sweet. Reminds me of a sweet dog that use to roam around my apartment, first time I saw it I froze, it was so mean looking, ha ha.
Here's my link:
I've been using Mcklinky and pretty happy with the results!

I love his poses! Boys are so much fun to photograph because their idea of cooperation is so different from a girls. It cracks me up every time (even as it frustrates me). =)

Your red-head is adorable (Spanish pronounciation, please), posed or no. Thanks for sharing these Superior Snaps!
At least your little man stands still. Mine just runs around the yard screaming, "Whee!" Stop by my blog today to see a sampling of more ironic small-town charm: http://mccallenmusings.blogspot.com/2009/08/friday-photo-fiesta-small-town-charm.html
I can't remember whether I already mentioned this to you, but I've switched to MckLinky. It's free, and it is largely error free. Much more reliable, too.
Anyway, my post is here -http://www.feelslikehomeblog.com/2009/08/birthday-buddies/
I am back and I have a post to link to this time. haha.
Smiles!

Oh man – great shots! I always get a giggle at your running commentary
Those last two are adorable – even if the dog's mouth is open in one of them LOL!

I certainly hope you got your half in the settlement. Damn that Mr Linky.
Here's my post for this week, and a little sneak peek at what Momma will be doing for herself in a few weeks:
Heh.
I tell you I loved pictures of your red head. I really wish I had one. But I shared a tender moment between siblings. Stop by and see.

Well, I finally got around to this, it's been a busy day, as my picture will explain. Today we enjoyed the wonderful experience that is laundry…gag.

What a handsome boys you have. Love his red hair. Great pictures!

Woo-hoo! I *know* this will work, where Mr. Linky sometimes didn't!
Sadly, I forgot to come back and link up when I initially posted this morning. At least I remembered now for the "better late than never" entry!

I love the second to last picture. That is a beauty!
That kid's so cute he oughta be in pictures!
Super-cute photos! I love the last one of your son and Cammie. Cute! You're right about the green in the photo too.
I like photos where they're looking in the distance. My son would probably have done the same thing if I asked him to do that.
Darling photos!
