Photography class

So I have started a summer school class at the U. My Momma let me borrow he amazing camera so I could get some good photography experience in. Our first two assignments were to take a photo using a fast and slow shutter speed to capture a moving object. I chose to do the water fountain in our apartments courtyard. We were also assigned to capture a short depth of field and a large depth of field. Here are my four photographs.

As you can see one little guy looks identical to Kumo! It's crazy because that was the pup we were originally interested in! Kumo is now 8lbs 9oz and outweighs all his brothers and sisters by a whole pound!

Carla and Kiley come to visit!

Bryan left for Washington DC on Thursday to spend some time with his Dad and visit some law schools. School ended on Wednesday and so Carla and Kiley came into town to keep me company over the weekend! We had tons of fun together with visiting Grandma, playing up at the University with the dog and watching a movie! Kiley loves Kumo and so I just had to get a picture of her holding him. He is getting so big and looks huge in Kiley’s arms. The other pictures are from the day before they arrived. Kumo loves to hang out on the end of the couch watching while you are in the kitchen. Here are the pictures:

Kumo gets wet

Well after Ben's wedding we had some of our friends over and we all went down to the hot tub. I just stuck my feet in because I wanted to be able to watch Kumo. Our hot tub is fenced in but I had him on a leash just in case he wanted to try some funny business. Well I guess he wanted to be with all the rest of the people in the hot tub and he jumped in! The hot tub is so hot and I immediately scooped him up. It was hilarious because when he gets wet you can really see how skinny his legs are.... huskies are known for having small frames hidden underneath their thick coats and Kumo looks just like Nakita when he gets well with his small legs. Anyhow everyone was laughing and I thought it was pretty funny, but I immediately had to take him upstairs to wash the chlorine off him since he is still a pup and I don't know what chlorine will do to his skin. Anyhow I took some pictures in the bathroom after dunking him in the bathtub... he was not happy with me... here they are:

Ben's wedding!

So Ben(Bryan's mission companion, who he is still very close with) got sealed for all time and eternity in the Salt Lake temple yesterday to Allyson! It was a beautiful day here in Salt Lake. It has been raining for the past few days so everything is just so green! Here are some pictures from the day.

My two sleepy loves...

So Kumo loves to sleep on Bryan... We went up to the mountains this last weekend for Bryan to snowboard and for Kumo and I to play in the snow. On the way home Kumo was so tired but he only wanted to sleep ontop of Bryan's shoulders...silly dog... here are the pictures...

It snowed today!

Here are the pictures of the little guy in the snow. He ran around like crazy! Now he is sound asleep since he tuckered himself out.

The Todd's came into town!

So the Todd's came into town on Monday and got to meet Kumo, here are the pictures from the day. They were only here for a short while, and we some how missed getting a picture of Bruce!

Kumo has discovered a new toy....

Kumo has finally warmed up to his puprle octopus toy.... he is now obsessed with it and plays with it all the time.... until he falls asleep. Here are some new pictures and a video, check out the sound on the viedo since the toy makes so much noise, its funny!
