Is it wrong that for the second week in a row I couldn’t pick just one photo?  Probably.  It’s a trend I promise not to continue.  However, the subject matter covered here today was worthy of at least a couple of (hundred) shots.  Feel free to call any photo in the series the “photo of the week” I’m fine with whatever.

Anyway, what you are about to see may induce the following emotions: jealousy, excitement, happiness, joy, delight in this world and all it has to offer, euphoria, love, hope, envy, curiosity, awe, “aww”, and possibly high levels of excitement.  Because of this I do not recommend that pregnant women, the elderly, or anyone with hypertension or any kind of medical condition continue viewing this blog post.  However, if you chose to, I take no responsibility for the emotions and the physiological affect they may have on you.

Below you will find several photos of our households favorite canine resident, who also happens to be the only canine resident, but also the prince of the castle- or couch.

I’d like to say a few words about the famous Wilson (the Whoodle) Baldwin.  Here they are:

Wilson (Mister Wilson, Wilsy, Wilsy guy, Mister guy, Willy)  is seriously the best dog in the whole world and by “best” I mean “best ever for all of eternity”.  For the sake of brevity, I will just offer one bit of evidence for your consideration.  The entire time I did this photo shoot, he sat completely still because I told him to “stay” and yet wagged his tail the whole time. I mean, how cute is that?

So without further ado, we’ll let week three photos speak for themselves.

Have a great week and even though your dog isn’t the best dog in the whole world- give him a hug from Wilson!

I’m pretty excited to be participating in a photography project called “Project 52.”  Jodi Friedman of MCP Actions is encouraging photographers to learn and grow by taking one intentional photograph every week.  She’s suggesting themes for each week and while I may not use them, I’m still excited to take a photograph every week.  I love photography, but it’s like the contractor whose house never gets finished… I end up capturing everyone elses moments and don’t capture my own.  Hopefully, this will serve as a bit of a digital diary for me and at the end of the year, I’ll be able to remember what I did in 2011!

If you want to join in the project- it’s not too late!  Start now! Here’s more info: http://www.mcpactions.com/blog/2011/01/05/mcp-project-52-one-photo-a-week-join-in-anytime/

I’m a little behind on this, but only by two days which means I can easily catch up this week.  Anyway, this weeks photo comes from the Western Stock Show!  What a fun time we had with our friends!  It was truly an enlightening cultural experience….. Our favorite event (which i did not get a good photo of) was the dog pulling contest.  This is where dogs large and small see how much weight they can pull.  Honestly, I never thought anything would be so exciting.

Without further ado- this weeks Photo of the Week (and a few more of the Western Stock Show for good measure)

Good measure:
