Remember this guy - Bear? Yep, I got to hang out with the Shetland Sheepdog crew again over at my family's house. My grandmother loved the Shetland Sheepdog ornament I bought for her from For Love of a Dog Jewelry too.

My kids got tons of toys and so I feel like I am stuck in an endless circle of cleaning and organizing right now. Trying to catch up with the rest of the blogging world! I also got some extremely amazing gifts for Christmas.
I received a new phone from my boyfriend, which I love! It's a Samsung Galaxy S4. So, now that I have a new phone I can use Vine. Yay! I have so been wanting to try Vine, but my old phone was too old or something silly. Regardless, I made an account last night and my name on Vine is "Pawsitively Pets". So find me so we can follow each other!
I am really loving the camera on my new Galaxy S4 also. It takes some pretty nice pictures! Selfies are a breeze now!

Speaking of taking pictures, I think the most exciting gift I received was a new camera. It's a DSLR Nikon D3100. I think that's it's full name anyways. It came with two lenses. I'm still learning to use it, but so far I think I've got the simple stuff down. I am in love with it!

Shiner had a great time on Christmas also. I let her shred one of her Christmas toys on Christmas eve. She thoroughly enjoyed herself.
Now, it's time to prepare for 2014! Are you ready?
You really did have a wonderful Christmas,the new camera looks fantastic.Speedy got lots for christmas as always.we didn't spend much on our selves just a token present as we had the vacation and then having to get the new PC which was an unexpected expense so I guess that was our gift to our selves,and my god is it fast has 2 hard drives one is a SSD which give super fast boot up and it has a normal one for storage.and it was delivered on saturday so we was able to get most things back up and running like the skype so the best present was to be able to chat and see my dad on skype on christmas day and my uncle in holland on christmas eve,Looking forward to the new year but first things Speedy has to pick his winners,xx Rachel
ReplyDeleteThat sounds awesome to me Speedy! My boyfriend has a habit of going overboard sometimes on the presents lol... I did really want the camera and I absolutely love it! He bought it for me because of my blogging and everything. The phone was an unexpected surprise too. A new computer sounds like an excellent gift to me! My father bought one for himself tonight.
DeleteMerry Christmas^^ Like your grandma's knitting^^ They are awesome^^
ReplyDeleteThanks Agnes! She is sooo talented and can make almost anything... she sews, cross stitches, embroiders, knits... my daughters also got some really cute hats and scarves!

ReplyDeleteFirst of all...Merry Christmas Ann :)
ReplyDeleteSecond...those are great pictures. I need to buy a new camera so that I can capture my turtles much better.
I think a turtle would be fun to photograph! Maybe I will get to do that one of these days.
DeleteWoof-hoo! Miss Ann, you got some great "toys" for Christmas!

Thanks Glogirly! Vine is so fun, I love it!
DeleteI don't know why i missed this post, now i read it :) , i LOVE your camera , i want one too :P
ReplyDeleteThanks Doni! If you are subscribed by email, they only go out 4 days a week and not everyday. So that might be why you missed it!
DeleteThere's an award for you in my blog :-)
ReplyDeleteThank you Carlos! I will stop by right now and pick it up.
DeleteIt sounds like you all had a wonderful Christmas! Yay for your great gifts....new phone and new camera, I'm guessing we'll be seeing lots more awesome photographs on here!
ReplyDeleteI love having my new phone for easy photos when walking, etc., but we also have a good camera like yours (mine is a Pentax) for around the house and special occasions. You'll have lots of fun with that!
Yep - I agree that the phone is great for quick shots of things. And I really like the phone's camera.
DeleteWOW! You had a great Christmas :) My human got the Nikon D3200 with two lenses and she is very happy with it, but as it is the first proper DSLR she's had, she has a lot to learn! :) So if you learn any neat tricks, maybe you could pass them on!! xx
ReplyDeleteOh cool! I got two lenses also Austin! I don't know what the difference between the two are, but they must be very similar.
DeleteSounds like you guys had an awesome Christmas! Maybe I can convince momma to let me shred one of my toys. Apparently all the cool doggies are doing it!
ReplyDeleteGarth
Yes, lots of cool doggies shred toys! BOL... it's lots of fun. Or so I hear anyways :)
