Biscuit’s First Snow!

This morning we woke up to snow while we are on vacation for the Holidays!  Doug and I always wanted to know how Biscuit would take to the snow as we have not had any snow in Maryland since we adopted and rescued Biscuit.

This morning, we opened the front door and Biscuit galloped up and down the street.  Biscuit was quite animated — he started playing in the snow and barking!  (Biscuit usually is not much of a barking dog!)  He liked the snow as much as he loved running on the beach in Nova Scotia!

Below are a few images of Biscuit enjoying his first snow!  He is so handsome!

A Biscuit Sighting!

Our friend recently found little Biscuit in the store and sent me this photo below!  How exciting!  

You can be on the look out for Biscuit in your grocery store.  Biscuit appears on the Jones Soda Co., the green apple flavor!

Holiday Cards!

I am not sure where the month of December went, as it is drawing to a close.  It is hard to believe Christmas is just five days away!  I finally finished and mailed my Holiday cards this morning!  My Holiday cards were mailed a little later than usual, but hopefully everyone, including those on the west coast, will receive their Holiday cards in time for Christmas!  (We recently had a few mishaps receiving our mail, including receiving our completed Holiday card).  

I love making photo cards, and here is a sneak peek at this year’s Holiday card in the envelope!  You will have to wait to see the actual Holiday card when you receive it in the mail!  Of course, our little Biscuit is the hallmark of our Holiday card this year as well as last year!  Happy Holidays!

Biscuit is doing well and he is ready for Christmas travels!  Below is a photograph of Biscuit as he was waking up from a nap on his Orvis bed!   He kept me company as I finished up our cards!

Happy Thursday!

Fan Mail!

To our surprise last night, Biscuit received some Christmas gifts from a fan of his blog!  Pat Pope along with her sheltie, Dusty, was kind enough to think of Biscuit for the Holidays!  We are going to wait to open these beautifully wrapped gifts on Christmas.  Biscuit sniffed out his box last night when we opened the gift box from Pat.  We are very grateful for Pat’s generosity and thoughtfulness!

It is our hope that people will decide to rescue a dog after reading about Biscuit’s story and his adventures!  Biscuit has been such a wonderful part of our lives.

Below are the beautifully wrapped gifts from Pat and Dusty!

Below is a really nice note enclosed in the gift box from Pat.  I am so happy that she enjoys reading the blog and her note is very touching.

“Katie, This is a small token of appreciation for your efforts regarding Biscuit’s website!  I have enjoyed your comments and the pictures of little Biscuit, he has such a lovely coat and, I think very soulful eyes.  I still miss my Major.”  Happy Holidays!

Thank you so very much, Pat and Dusty — Biscuit will love opening his gifts from you on Christmas!

Happy Friday!

Biscuit visits Santa!

We took Biscuit to the Harbor this week to visit Santa for the first time!  Fortunately, this Santa also takes requests from furry family members!  Biscuit was such a good boy and he loved walking to the Harbor – so many new smells!  (Biscuit’s endurance is improving as he is able to walk a bit further than when we first met Biscuit).  Biscuit pranced as he walked – he is always up for a new adventure.  Biscuit even let me put on his tartan antlers while visiting Santa!  He is such a good boy!

On a positive note, we found out this week from the vet that Biscuit does not have thyroid disease.  As a result, we will continue to do his senior blood work every three months to monitor all of his levels closely.

Happy Friday!

Website – Katherine Carver Photography

I have spent the past six months or so creating and working on my website for Katherine Carver Photography.  I have never created a website before; however, the people at Livebooks have helped me to create a simple and clean-looking website keeping the focus on each image.  Also, Sharon Bruno helped me to create my logo that appears on my website (and this blog).  It has definitely been a long process and I have learned a lot along the way, and I hope to continue to learn.

Deborah Samuel, fine art photographer and author of Dog and Pup, has been very helpful to me in providing me with feedback on my work and website.  Deborah has been very generous with her time, and I am most grateful.

I have spent quite a bit of time editing, creating, and working on each individual image, and I believe that my portfolios are taking shape and my website is coming together.  Photography is not static; I hope to continue to grow and create thought provoking images and see where it leads.
