Memory Moment - border collie pups

All the babies
When Tuff & Sierra were tiny and would get sooooo tired during the walk that we would have to pick them up and carry them (thankfully they didn't weigh too much then!).

Memory Moment - Superbowl 2007

The SuperBowl was last weekend and quite an entertaining game! We had a houseful of friends (minus poor Paul who had strep throat and was quarantined to Gram and Papa's house). Here are some pictures from the 2007 Super Bowl when the Bears played. We'll leave the description of the game at that.

Memory Moment - Rylee and Julia

Rylee and Julia have known each other since they were born. Julia actually was at my baby shower when I was pregnant with Rylee. These 2 girls are now in the same class in kindergarten and have become very close. It is so cute watching their relationship grow!
