September 2009

We got a new dog, Bella. She's a 2 yr old beagle that we adopted.

So now I have a 2 yr old, a 3 yr old, and a 40 yr old that DO NOT listen to me!!!

Iowa County Fair

Silas & Fin at the fair, checking out the tractors, of course.

August 2009 Birthday Bash

Summer 2009

Look, Mom! A froggie!

We spent a couple of days this summer at Henry Vilas Zoo.

Hard to see, but that's a "girl lion" in the background.

Feeding the ducks with some friends (Reese & Ava).

May 2009

We re-landscaped our whole yard (whew)

Fin got a new sandbox (courtesy of Uncle Johnny)

This is our favorite neighborhood friend, Merle--the tail less squirrel. He comes back to see us every year.

And Mark got to squeeze in some quality fishing time with Fin.

March 2009

Fin gives his "thumbs up" approval.

Finally a nice day to play outside. We are looking forward to warmer weather!

Dad with Bailey & Fin

Fin likes the mohawk so much, that it makes me nervouse that he'll give himself a real mohawk when he's a teenager.

December 2008

Fin asked Santa to bring him suckers for Christmas. That was all he wanted.

Bailey & Fin open Christmas presents.

Sitting on Santa's lap.....finally.

O Christmas Tree!
