I gave Tim a new gadget this year for Christmas – a Flip video camera. It’s very small, and it was really sort of a selfish gift – I think I’m going to use it as much as Tim! Tim is always wanting me to tape his golf swing. He analyzes it on the computer, and then works on his swing with various clubs. I have an older Kodak camera that takes MPEG’s and we have a very old handheld camcorder, that uses Hi8 tape (so of course, he can’t use that with the computer). I got him the Flip Video because it is really small, and it has a nice little pop-out USB connector on it (which plugs right into the computer, or we can use the cables to hook it up to the plasma tv and watch the videos on the big screen). However, as I said, it was sort of a selfish gift. I thought I *might* use it sometimes to take videos of Beau. And of course, at family get-togethers and birthday parties and such. So, really, it was sort of a gift for both of us. 🙄
Guess what I have more videos of than anything? Yep, you guessed it – Beau. I only uploaded a couple, and I’m hoping they work. I have steadfastly refused to setup an account at YouTube so far, but I may have to do that soon. I’m trying to get these to work from Google Video. Please let me know if you have any trouble viewing these videos. If you even want to look at them. After all, he’s just a dog. He’s our furry child, but he is just a dog. 🙂
These are a LOT more pixelated and blurry looking online than they are on my computer. Oh well, you get the general idea. First, here’s Beau playing in the leaves a few days after Christmas. I uploaded it but forgot to post it!
Beau playing on his old bed, rolling around like a crazy dog. He does this a lot! (Note: Longest Video)
Beau playing with his new new Wubba (and Tim!) – he uses all his paws. Only fair!
P.S. My blog buddy, Desert Songbird, requested new photos of Beau, so I thought I’d try this. I can post photos of him too though. I still take tons of photos of him. Poor thing. He’s getting old. I found the first couple of grey hairs on his muzzle the other day. I nearly cried. I don’t want my puppy dog to grow up and grow old 🙁
I’m first! I’m never first!
Look at that silly Beau….he loves the leaves and playing around. And looks like he’s gotten a hole in his dog bed, I don’t remember seeing that on it the last time I was there.
These worked for me, even on this old computer……but come on, don’t resist youtube forever!
Awww! He’s so cute! Tell me that Maggie and Teddy said hi!
LOL, those are too cute! Beau is such a handsome guy. He still looks young to me!
Stacy, if you’re looking for an alternative video hosting site (because I’m with you, I avoid YouTube like the plague – the husband likes it though), check out viddler.com (I use that one, very easy) or vimeo.com.
Beau is such a pretty boy. *grin*
Beau is way to cute! Love the middle one of him rolling around!
What a cutie pie! Gray came in while I was watching the videos, and he loved them, too! Plus I loved hearing your pretty voice!
Then only thing better than photos of Beau are videos of Beau! And three of them to boot! Yippee! He’s so funny and silly and cute. He really does remind me of our Pandora when she was young.
Oh – I’m so glad you posted these. Vader’s at his nana’s and I miss him so much. Seeing Beau really helped. He is so adorable and I love the way he plays on his back in his bed. Too cute!! He is much more vocal than Vader – wish Vader had that trait. 🙂 Thanks so much for sharing!!!
I was able to view them all, even through my reader. 🙂
He’s such a playful doggie.
He reminds me a lot of Reagan!
I’m glad I’ve heard your voice now- I can’t believe I never have before. 🙂
Oh! Meant to comment on the gray hairs cropping up. I would feel the same way! Reagan is ten years old now, and this past year he’s actually started to show some age, with lots of gray hair popping up all over his snout. 🙁 I’m sad every time I notice it.
Oh Stacey, Beau is beautiful! He seems like such good natured fellow too. It is hard to see our pets age, isn’t it? They truly become part of our family and are so dependent on us. The older I have gotten the more soft hearted I have become. 😉
I also must say that I loved hearing your little southern accent! Your voice matches the sweetness of your personality which is portrayed through your blog and your thoughtful comments you leave on other blogs. 🙂
Have a great rest of your week–
Kim
