Doggos

It’s official… we now have dogs.

Steele is a boxer/pit mix and Leo there…

Probably full beagle, but who knows.

We can blame Redflare’s newly found family for this. Steele was a gift from her brother while Leo was a rescue. Found starving and nearly frozen.

They both seem to have adjusted nicely to a warm home with five kids and three cats. Amusingly this brute of a dog is scared of cats, probably better that way.

Let the housebreaking and training to not be on the furniture commence!

Walking Stick

Thunderer found a stick and declared it was her walking stick.

I’m not going to argue with an almost five year old (at the time of the picture.)

Halloween

We’re getting there! Halloween pictures are a go!

If you can’t tell, Superman is Thanos, I’m Gandalf, TJ is Spiderman, Newbie is a sloth, Little Miss is a dark fairy/angel, and Thunderer is a “puppy” (Scooby Doo was the only way we could pull that one off.)

TJ went and coordinated costumes with his girlfriend too. She went as Silk.

Park Teens

Behold!

My teens at rest at the park while the little ones play.

Further Play

Sometimes the pictures speak for themselves and sharing cute moments of the kids at play is really all that’s needed. I think this is one of those times.

Fall’s Arrival

We finally got a nice fall day after the pumpkin patch in late October. It was cool but not cold so it was time to get out to the park again!

The wind was kind enough to gather up a bunch of leaves too, so the kids enjoyed playing in those.

Halloween Supplies

It’s tradition now that we go out to the local pumpkin patch and let the kids pick out their pumpkins.

It’s also tradition to be sure to grab a picture of everybody on top of a haybale while we’re there.

We also decided to catch a picture of ourselves. A nice way to update our fall facebook profile picture.

Once everything was picked out it was time to play a little bit before heading back. The teens decided to have a contest and see who could reach the farthers up a halbale after a running start.

It didn’t end as was expected.

Meanwhile, Newbie was quite fearful of the prospects of Thunderer driving…
