Foggy Doggie Walk

 Getting out for a walk with Able is just about one of the most satisfying things for me lately.  He loves it, I get the perfect pregnancy workout, and we get to see some pretty beautiful scenes.  The baby was moving around so much during this walk!  A bit of honesty, I usually have to pull off into the bushes to pee a few times because it feels like baby is sitting on my bladder.  I often picture what these walks will look like in the future, with me or Lane wearing baby in a pack, and Able enjoying himself as always.  I wonder how having baby will change our sweet doggie, he is used to being the only child (besides the kitties).  I'd like to think he will be the best big brother, gentle, kind and protective of baby.

Some East Side Snow Love

We finally got some snow over on the East side of the mountains!  We headed over, stayed at the cabin the first night and then headed to Christina's in Peshastin for the second night.  Each day we did a snow walk/hike.  Sunday we watched an epic football game where Seattle won, sending us to play in the Super Bowl in two weeks (second year in a row)!  Woohoo!  Just a great weekend all around.

A New Year

This year was a quiet one for us.  Lane has been sick with pneumonia and an ear infection, so we took it as easy as possible.  We made it out for a little walk with the dogs, Lindsey and Tom, which was good.  Getting some fresh air and family/doggie time was the perfect way to start out the year.  I'm so excited for what 2015 has in store for us!

The Tree

We kept to our tradition of getting the tree from the Shults' farm, Scattered Acres.  We opted for a less full one this year, because we have a little less space than in the past.  We went, we had cider, we cut, then went on our merry way to decorate!

Snowy Island

We woke up Saturday morning, looked outside, and it had snowed!  Probably about four or five inches fell.  The whole family so excited, we adventured, got some chores done, took a few photos (one for the Christmas card), and enjoyed the weekend together.  All the while remarking how beautiful the snow was and what perfect timing it had.

Thankful Day
