February 13 - The Strain of Moving is Starting to Show

 In the midst of all the packing, unpacking, sorting and setting up our new home, we have days like today...meaning...not much but giggling gets accomplished.
Zach and History, one of the pups!

Another pup hiding in his Pocket!
 In our new dining room there is a loft which is open on one side and a entrance hatch on the other...perfect opportunity for the boys! 














 In the new school room they hung a homemade pull up bar.


 Gabe volunteered to be in charge of the fireplace, he told me it looked so pretty that he wanted to take a picture.

Walking with the Lads

Right in the middle of all the ciaos of moving, we had a litter of pups (our timing is still right on track.) Which means I have spent a ton of time tending them, but this blog is about the family, not my pups, so I won't go into that. 
One day when the pups were about 3 weeks old, Garrett, Gabe, and I were left at home for the afternoon. We all needed some outside time so bad, and so decided to take a walk down our road to see where it led. What a great afternoon! We took 3 of the pups with us and the big dogs as well. 

Puppies = Coat warmers

Gabe finally got his bike working, which means he spent most of the walk out in front.

Conrad and Gabriel

Back in June we lost Garrett's dog, Xavier to an auto accident. In September we had another litter out of Xavier's parents, and kept a pup from it. Roland, Garrett's new shadow, and boy do they love each other!   




Well Gabe had his bike fixed, that is for most of the walk. I love watching these two work together to get things done!




Garrett and his Rolo man

Conrad found something very interesting attached to Gabe's belt, they both had fun with the tug-o-war game that ensued. 

Absolutely spectacular view!


Any guesses what he had in his coat? (hint: it's not blubber)




It was also the day that marked our official move into the house! Though everyone was exhausted, we had a small celebration to mark the date!
