Dear Paulette,
Remember when it was January? Like, just yesterday? And everyone was telling you Happy New Year, and you were in your usual blissful state of all-things-are-new-again?
And let's not forget all those New Year's Resolutions, which included this beauty:
Blog more.
And this one:
Take pictures of things besides pets.
It's probably best if you stopped resolving things. That's all.
Yours Truly,
Paulette

I was going through my photos from 2017, and I thought I'd share a few of the in-between moments that either never made it to my blog, or maybe found their way to Instagram instead. Mostly though, they're just pictures that made me smile... and yes, the majority of them are probably of pets.
I hope you all had a really lovely start to your new year, and that the remaining eleven months are filled with lots and lots of moments that make you smile. Even if it's mostly your pets. Or fosters. (I don't actually own 1,284 pets, despite what it may look like.)
I'll see you soon!
Such great photos, all of them!!! I enjoy your blog so very much!!!

Oh Paulette, miss you so much here in blog world. Your pictures made me smile too. I'm such a foodie that the picture of the peaches actually made my mouth water..I didn't know it was possible for your daughters to get more beautiful, but they have. Love the chart, 'hello Winter'. Thanks for sharing. Cathryn

Your photos are all lovely. Especially of Martha. Over the course of our 34 years of marriage, we have had four Sprinters (2 black and 2 liver). Our current one is a liver male puppy. We got a Golden Retriever 9 years ago. She is the most amazing dog ever. I have loved Springers since I was a little girl, but Goldens are pure gold.
I love looking at all of your pics.

When did Sophie graduate?! How did I miss that? I've been reading your blog since when all 3 girls were home. You take the best pictures.

Your pictures are all very pleasing to the eye. You are a talented artist. Pets or fosters or other subjects.
Go on with the show in 2018!
Amicalement,

Hi, Paulette!
Do you use a certain camera? I've been trying to figure out how to do a blurred background effect on my pictures...I've even looked online, but no luck.
