Doing Their Job


OK, the people making the commercials for Cesar's Dog Food are totally doing their job, because after watching a few {alright, one}, I definitely want to 'love Oliver back' and get him some Cesar!!! :)

This is my absolute no question about it FAVORITE commercial of all time! I smile everytime I see it :D

I love the song, the COLORS, the Westie {don't tell Oliver I said that}, EVERYTHING! So of course, after that one, I had to look at the rest :)
I promise to be your fuzzy slippers:
 I promise to be there when you wake up:
 {oh, what would I give for her room?}

I promise to wait up for you:
 I have absolutely no idea what she's saying! :)
 oooooor what he's saying:
aaaaand while I'm at it, a hilarious Skittles commercial:
 But back to the Cesar's... Do you really think that Oliver would love me for forever if I bought him some??? Because I'm seriously debating it :)

Some pictures that have been sitting on my desktop for a while:






And a raccoon I randomly drew.

Have a wonderful day everyone!

Guess what just arrived?

OK, I won't make you guess. I just needed a post title.

Well here it is! MY LIGHTSCOOP!!! 

 Notice how in the flash picture the baby is unhappy, but in the Lightscoop version she's as happy as a clam? Haha! :)

I am SO happy!!! I put it on right away, and was SO impressed! It was WAY cheaper than buying a speedlight, that's for sure! Ha! I've known about the Lightscoop for at least a year, and have wanted one, but never got it. I finally bought it last week and couldn't WAIT for it to come in the mail! Well, dad was outside this evening and said 'Hey, did anyone notice this package?'... It was here the whole day! :P Oh well, we were shopping and swimming all day, so I couldn't have used it anyway :) 

Another challenge...
28. Buy a Lightscoop

Since Joelle was NOT going to be a model, I plunked Oliver down in the living room, told him to 'stay', and then snapped some pictures!

Let me say, I was SO impressed! Want to see??? Of course you do!

 Are you as impressed as I was??? I honestly have the sudden urge to go to a Starbucks and snap pictures like a crazy woman. Anyone want to go with me??? :D By the way, isn't my puppy so handsome? :)


Daisy, one of Joelle's Webkinz, was happy to pose as well:
This one is harder to see, but in the first, Daisy's fur is EXTREMELY white, and the Lightscoop softens it.

So? What do you think? And the best part?

It's only $30!!! I had my eye on a speedlight, but I decided to try the Lightscoop and save a few $$ in the process! And I am very happy with my decision! I'm sure I won't use her indefinitely, and that I'll get a speedlight one of these days, but for right now, she is fabulous!!!

Yes, I have just decided that my Lightscoop is indeed a 'she'... Hmm... all of my camera equipment is! Oh well... And her new name? Aha! {I seriously JUST came up with this}

Linda the Lightscoop!

Some more snaps with Linda:
 I was worried that I would get some bad pinlights, but look at the catchlights! :)

Food... ;) 

Here's a tip: DON'T buy the Lightscoop from the website! I'm not saying it's bad, just more expensive. I got Linda from Amazon for $30, with free shipping! But buying from the Lightscoop website I would have paid almost $40.

YAY FOR LINDA!!!
