Thee kitchen help

Chopper is helping me clean the kitchen. I think he's hoping for scraps.

Keeping Mom company

Kierstin and Chopper "lay quietly" in my office, keeping me company, while I write a paper for school.

We sure are lucky Chopper has as much patience as he does!

Kierstin hasn't quite mastered writing her own name yet (That "K" is TOUGH!) but she is writing the name of her best friend! Here, she wrote Chopper's name all by herself! (Mommy just spelled it)

It's a Dog PAR-TAY! Today we had a "dog social" at the local park. We don't yet have a dog park in town, but the city organized a place for the dogs to play today for an hour. They got to go on the baseball field that is all fenced in, and run and play without a leash. Chopper had SO MUCH FUN, and has been snoring away ever since we got home!

My watch dog, who is NOT allowed on the furniture. BUSTED!

Here's a picture of our Choppy-Boy, with his snout covered in mud from playing in the rain. We got TONS of rain this week - about 2.5" this week, which is A LOT in one week, considering our annual rainfall is about 7" typically.

What? You thought ALL of the pics would be of the kids? :)

Today's picture comes to you from my home office. I'm so blessed to have an amazing job that I love, working for a great company, which I can do AT HOME! Here is where the magic happens... where I spend at least 8 hours out of every day Monday - Friday. I thought about cleaning up a bit before taking the picture, but thought instead that I'd post a dose of reality. Yes, Chopper is right beside me, he spends just as much time in this office as I do! Oh, and please pay no attention to the fact that my hair is pulled back in a ponytail, and I'm wearing sweats, 'cause working at home... that's how I roll!

Can I start off a post titled January 1, 2010, and write the entry on January 2nd? Is that against the generally accepted blog rules? I don't care! This one is MY blog and I will do what I want!! :)

HELLOOOOO 2010! I am going to attempt a 365 photography project this year... My plan is to upload at least ONE photo per day, every day, for all of 2010. This will allow for me to capture some of the "mundane" moments of our lives that we don't want to forget, and will also allow our family - near and far - to keep up with what we're up to in our life.

So... For my January 1st picture, well, I'm already making excuses... HA HA! I took some adorable pictures last night... with my mother in law's camera. She flew back to Montana today, and silly me forgot to download all of the photos. So, those photos have been requested, and will be uploaded soon. :) (Edited to add the pictures! She's quick to get them to me!)

Hopefully this won't be too boring of a blog... but I can count on the grandparents checking in regularly, if no one else.

HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONE!!
