Catching Up

This fall has been really crazy busy for our family and all the activities we’ve been involved in.  I spent the entire day Saturday in my office finishing up some photoshoots, working on homework, and just basically getting caught up.  Reagan was the only one of our girls home yesterday, and she hung out in [...]

Wild Man

I often wonder if maybe Tod’s family genetic tree doesn’t have very many branches . . .
Recently when I drove to Heppner to pick Emma up for the weekend, I took him with me because he loves to go for rides.  During the drive, he and my jacket got into a wrestling match.
   
After winning [...]

New & Old

Tuesday we had five new additions to our family – three girls and two boys.  Tod and Susie had their puppies.
 
Unfortunately, Monday, my parents had to put their sweet, beautiful Luna-girl to sleep.  I happened to be there Sunday and took these pictures. 

  

July 2009

July has been a crazy busy month for us this year.  It’s almost been busier than last year when we were building our house.  I was really looking forward to just relaxing and not having any set plans.  I’ve had a great month and managed to relax, but I didn’t manage to keep our activities [...]

A Week (Or Two) In Review

Spring activities have consumed the TOD Household.  We haven’t been home before 7:00 p.m. any weeknight over the past two weeks.  It’s okay, though – we’re having a BLAST!  All three little girlies are busy busy busy with softball (Katelyn & Harley) and coach pitch baseball (Reagan).  They are having a great time, working hard, [...]

Eeeeeeeeeewwwwwwwwwwww!

To answer the very first question I think has probably popped into everyone’s mind – yes, that IS a mouse.  A baby mouse, to be exact.  A baby mouse being held in Aaron’s hand.  And, YES, I did have to take a picture of it because the story is just too unbelievable without the photo [...]

Then & Now

My own version.
Aaron is notorious for NEVER deleting pictures off his memory card, even after it’s been downloaded.  So, today, while I was dowloading the pictures from Katelyn’s assembly yesterday, I found some pictures of Tod from when we first got him and some more recent ones from around Christmas-time.
Here he is right after we [...]

Hodge Podge II

When Emma got her braces off, I posted that she would eventually have veneers put on her top teeth that were just a little too small.  She finally got to have that done last week, so now her beautiful smile is perfect without any gaps!  I am amazed each and every day at the beautiful [...]

Hodge Podge I

Wow!, we’ve had a crazy couple of weeks!  I’ve gone back to work for a new school year.  Emma worked really hard to get her lamb ready for fair, and then she went to fair.  Harley and Reagan got to spend a week in Heppner with their grandma.  Katelyn spent a lot of time at [...]

To Each Their Own

Each day when we are done working, we take off our toolbelts and put them away – hanging them on temporary nails in studs inside the house.  My mom & I both thought that all our toolbelts hanging together at the end of the day were a grand statement to the work being accomplished and the [...]
