Christmas Tree (December 2013)





On the hunt for our Christmas tree.  Brother, this blog has gotten ridiculous.  I don't even know what season I'm in anymore or what I've posted!  I'm so behind.  Can't say I see that changing though, so I'll just keep muddling forward. It was a cold and snowy day, but Miles loves a good run through all the trees, so all was not lost.

Buddies

I often joke that our dogs are surrogate siblings for Miles.  I find myself saying things like "respect their body language," "they're trying to tell you they have had enough," "settle down everyone,"  "this isn't a time to go crazy," etc, etc, you get the idea.  The dogs are great sports, gentle, playful, pretty tolerant and loving.  Although I often view them as a headache (insert poop throw-up story here), in the end, I am so glad we have them.  They are teaching Miles so much and I'm sure he would be terrified of dogs if we didn't have our own crazy crew.  I think these photos capture some of the sweeter moments of their relationship.   


A spontaneous moment of affection on one of our walks


Stopping for a brief moment to catch their breath.  These two run and run together whenever we go on hikes.

Angry Birds!!



Miles still loves, loves, loves all things Angry Birds!  His cousins, Braden and Nora, and Grandma Julie made some out of polymer clay, sent them our way and I must say, they were an instant hit!  We have played and played with these little guys.  They are adorable!

A summertime trip into Millcreek Canyon for a little hiking, fresh air, and playing by the stream.
