Hints of the 2015 Doodle Calender

[Joanne ~ Spud*]

Adina has been really busy but I thought it would be fun to see the hints she has been posting leading up to the most anticipated event of the year!  

Here are some hints for the Calender.

As photos are posted, I will try, or others will just add here.

This is exciting news!  

[DJ & Chance]

Such a cutie!

[Camilla and Darwin]

I love her expression!

[Helga, Nimbus, Sierra, Clooney]

They are all very cute. But I am disappointed that Nimbus didn't make it in there. I submitted some great shots of him.

Oh well, he's definitely featured in our family calendar.

[BG and Gavin]

I know it is super disappointing Helga. I am sure that Adina has hundreds of calendar worthy photos that had to be cut. I think the decisions are tough and that is why the process takes so long. If you started a discussion to post our best photos of 2014 that did not get chosen for the calendar I would be sure to participate. P.S. I like your idea about making a family calendar.

[F, Calla & Luca]

Ditto.

[Gwyndolyn Morasko]

We'll have to have a 300 page calendar, but I'm in.  :-)

[Adina P]

I am so sorry.  He's very cute and the photo of him by Lake Mead I kept around for a long time.  I have no good answer to give you.  I always hate cutting photos.  Definitely submit next year and now you know puppies are allowed so you will get 10 submissions!

[Joani, Skadi & Elli]

okay, okay, got it...so if I get a puppy I can submit 5 of puppy and 5 of Skadi...wow...I'm ALMOST tempted...I do love puppies tho...do they have puppies that are already potty trained, leash trained, sit/stay/fetch trained...and come with an anti-dirt shield?  I can only wish...

The puppies are extremely adorable and the selections have got to be the very very hardest to make...nothing like the older puppies selection...right? 

[Lori, Daphne, Lucy & Pippa]

Can you tell us how many photos you got this year??

[Adina P]

There are approx 500 photos I saved and didn't delete.  Maybe another 200-300 I ditched immediately?  I never know what the total was because I start deleting ones that have no chance immediately to spread out the work and thus never have a full count.

[Helga, Nimbus, Sierra, Clooney]

I'll try again next year. BTW how do I know the slide show theme, and how can I submit to that?

[F, Calla & Luca]

Adina has been doing the slide show without new photos for a while. If she decides to ask for entries again she will tell us the theme etc. in an announcement.
