When Life Gets a Little Crazy…

Posted in Family, and Photography

…I tend not to do quite as much blogging. So much going on, and I’m sure that I’ll write more about some of the major things soon. For now, I’m trying to get back into a regular routine plus get ready for some possible changes. No, I’m not trying to be cryptic.  Just focusing on the here and now. I’ve been having fun creating some new meals for us to try (and trying to document what I’m doing). I’m enjoying taking food pictures again. Munchkin was thrilled when I agreed to make some cupcakes (gluten free chocolate cupcakes with peanut…

Family Fitness: Slow and Steady

Posted in Family, and Fitness

Little did we know at this time last year that D would be going through two back surgeries in one year. I don’t think any of us really understood how much this would impact our lives. Yes, we knew there would be changes, but the extent of the changes weren’t really grasp until we were actually in the trenches going through the process. Now that we are finally through the worst of it (in theory), the rebuilding is beginning. D’s surgeon said that coming back from back surgery once is tough and twice is even harder for a “normal” person.…

Wyatt and the Rocking Chair

Posted in Family, and Photography

One of Wyatt’s favorite hiding spots is under the rocking chair. He’ll grab a toy or treat and go run to the rocking chair to hide from Wiley. He also just likes to hang out under it, but I have to watch him as he also likes to chew on it when no one is watching. This is the rocking chair from my childhood. It’s had it’s fair share of abuse, but it’s held up well over the years. Wyatt isn’t the first little puppy to like it. I have a feeling that he won’t be the last either. Training is…

Bittersweet Off-Roading Trip

Posted in Family, Outdoor Adventures, and Photography

Two weeks ago, we decided that it was time to take an off-roading trip. D felt that he could once again handle some of the jostling that takes place during the trip, and we felt that our new pups were at a point where they would do okay in the vehicle. We quickly learned that we were out of practice when it came to getting ready for our outing. There was a time where we could be ready to go in no time flat, but apparently, we are really, really out of practice. Yep, it had been longer than we…

The Case of the Tomato Snatcher

Posted in Family

One day, not so long ago, tomatoes started to disappear off our tomato plants.  I had previously watched Wyatt snag a couple of ripe tomatoes that had fallen to the ground when either he or Wiley had brushed up against the bush during their play sessions, but little did I know how much these two liked those tomatoes.  It wasn’t until I caught a certain someone – who shall remain nameless – snatching ripe tomatoes right off the vine that the mystery was solved.  Yep, he was caught red handed pawed. Of course, his little furry buddy made sure that…
