Snow Day

Last weekend we had 60 degree weather, today it is snowing. You never know exactly what the weather will be like in March. We sure enjoyed what may be the last of the snow this year. I love the snow.

My little Dyls. I love how little kids look like weeble wobbles in all their snow gear.

What a regal dog

OK, now he is laughing. I love it when Teddy laughs and smiles.


Better to eat you with my dear. Now he is a fox.

Teddy loves to give Dylan kisses, probably because Dylan is a bit reluctant.

Teddy will win, Dylan will get kissed all over his face.

Dylan did go in for a hug.

BYU Fans

We are a BYU family, for sure!!! My parents took little Brandon to the BYU bookstore this last weekend, and he chose out some fan gear! Brandon wanted to make sure our dog Teddy is a BYU fan!

Can you tell Teddy is smiling? We love our dog Teddy!



The weather was beautiful today, so all the kids enjoyed some outdoor time. The best part: the kids turned on the hose and got muddy. Why was I so happy? It didn't happen inside the house!!! They had a lot of fun and it was nice to get outside once again!

January Snow!

Well, this was a great way to start off our "off-track" time. Due to year-round school, the kids get 3 weeks off right now! What better way to spend our day than playing in the snow!!!

A Delightful Dog!

Our sweet Teddy!



I am just loving our dog Teddy. He was custom-made for our family! He is just such a good, sweet, obedient dog! He has brought a lot of happiness to our family. I love seeing Teddy scamper in the snow. He is so cute, and he was just made for the snow with his great coat. The dog is all fur. I am so glad he is housetrained, and doesn't bark, and is so well-mannered and good-natured. This is the way I love to have a dog!

It looks like a blizzard outside today; even for Utah standards! Finally, it has stopped snowing. Since all my kids are out of school for the next three weeks, maybe we can build a snowman today!

Girls and Dogs just want to have fun!

In this picture, Maddie reminds me of a young Cindy Lauper singin' "Girls Just want to have fun." She was just so excited to go and play outside! The dog was also having a blast running outside in the snow. Teddy is a dog made for the snow with his plush fur jacket! Benjamin has been throwing fits all day; which doesn't make for the cutest of pictures! Dylan has been fine, but prefers the indoors at this stage! And you guessed it, Ethan is playing Wii Star Wars, while Brandon works hard in school!

Lazy Sunday Evening

Who doesn't like being woken up with a kiss?

Well, we don't get home from church until evening practically now. So, here we are at around 5:30pm, with the kids just having eaten, and as you can see TIRED! I just love a baby sleeping. Benjamin loves to curl up in the Halloween quilt I made and fall asleep. The dog decided to keep him company, and wake him up from his nap with some kisses! BTW, I am just loving this dog. He is truly housetrained, DREAMY! They also have him trained to never bark, or go upstairs! Loving that! He is just such a pleasant, sweet dog. I am in love. Teddy is perfect for our family. To have a great dog again is FABULOUS. We had another great dog (Shelby) many years ago who died of a brain aneurism. It is not fun to see a dog die; especially convulsing. After that we tried a couple dogs that did not work out! Gotta' love KSL and Craigslist---that's where we found our dog Teddy!
