Fun in the Snow -Mom and Dad

Todd and I had fun making the snowman too!
We were so happy with what we made we kissed in front of our new son.

Fun in the Snow -Birds

Today, as a family we made a snowman. Seriously, does this guy not look like he belongs in out family (note the big smile and bushy eyebrows)? The Birds liked him so much they gave him a kiss.

Aren't they so cute and loving

Todd's New Toy

Don't ask me why but, Todd had to get a new 4 wheeler.

This bad boy (the 4 wheeler, Todd has been relatively good) can whip the girls around at such a high rate of speed that a mother must turn her head to keep from yelling

"Stop it, someone is going to get hurt".

He did get to play yesterday out on Lake Mile Lacs and he had a good time, no fish, but a good time.

Greeting Card

I challenged the girls to make a snowman last weekend and they couldn't even figure out how to roll a large snowball (the snow wasn't quite right). Despite the girls issues, Stephanie made this guy. He makes me laugh and I wanted to share him with you.

I actually think he would make a good greeting card image. Below are the words I would use if I was creating a card:

Each dream takes us higher, until
we can fly.

May this be the time, that you take,
to follow your dreams
and make them all come true!

Zeus the little mini Poodle

Zeus "Dude" Blake is our newest pet. Zeus came to our family to be my little lap dog the Saturday before Christmas. I wasn't sure if I really wanted another dog but now I am sure! I love this little thing, this little ball of fur and a very barky mouth. Here is a snap shot of him when he can home.

About 2 weeks ago I took Zeus in for his first poodle cut. I think it shows off his collar that my brother (Tom) made quite well.
