misbehavin'

Harley is getting a little too comfortable in his new home.  Doesn't his face have a total attitude about it?  Where's the gratefulness for rescuing his sorry butt from the shelter?  Did he put his front paws on MY dining room table tonight and eat off Trey's plate WHILE I was sitting there?umm-yes he did.  Has he been peeing on my lounger I received for Mother's Day?  umm-that would be a yes.  And is he trying to claim my favorite grey GAP zip-up jacket as his own?  I'm going to take him on a "field trip" back to the shelter to remind him who's boss if he doesn't shape up.  Just look at that face.

Books and Blankies

All three of my boys have a passion for books.  And two have a passion for their blankets.  Here's Sam and Adler reading a book together while sharing Sam's blanket.  This is a moment in my day where I have to stop and admire the love between these two.  With three boys, someone is either crying, fighting, yelling, or rough-housing, so, a moment like this does not go unnoticed by me.  Trey, I'm sure was in his room crying.

Sam's Soccer game

Sam had his second soccer game yesterday.  These pictures crack me up.  Sam tries to intimidate the other players with his 'faces'. 

Attack of the Trolls

Sam's been busy building all afternoon, and he asked me to take some pictures.  He's obsessed.

Who Is This Masked Man?

Harley, again

Oh, how I love this dog.  He is so funny.  I took a bunch of pictures of him, and he had his eyes closed in half of them.  What's up with that?  

look at this face....

what else can i say?

soccer time

Sam had his first of six soccer games today.  He had a fun time.  It was so cute to see these little boys all running after the ball, trying to score a goal.  Sam has some experienced players on his team, they stomped their competition.  (but we're not suppose to keep score) Here's to the next 13 years of weekend soccer games.

Trey's 1st Day of Preschool

Trey started preschool today.  He had a lot of fun.. And he is really excited that he has his own school now.  Since Sam has moved on, Trey gets to claim this school his own.. Such a middle child.  

From 1967 to 2008...

Andy and my Dad installed a new garage door on Labor Day.  Appropriate, if you ask me.  It looks so nice.  Now every time I drive up to the house, I sigh with relief, instead of groaning under my breath.  That old door was BAD!

A Boy and His Dog

Sam is enjoying having Harley around. Harley likes to play ball in the backyard, and is doing very well on our family walks.  AND he is already HOUSE-TRAINED!  Can I get an AMEN?  

Newest Member of the Family

Meet Harley!! We adopted him yesterday from a local no-kill animal shelter.  He is about a year and a half old, some sort of hound/lab mix, and a really good dog.  When  he settles down a bit, I hope to get some better pictures.
