Ralphie the Wonder Dog

It only took Ralphie about 2 minutes to master the treadmill. Isn't he cute??

My Boys

Could they be any cuter? I just don't think so. As far as dog-owner behavior goes, I don't think the Dog Whisperer would consider this to be submissive behavior...at least not on Ralphie's part.

Weekend in the Wilderness

We had a great weekend with the Van Hemerts in a beautiful cabin (called The Grand View, a very suitable name) in northeast Iowa. It was very chilly outside but we stayed warm in our little cabin with an ever roaring fire. We played fun games and ate way too much food. It somehow made me even MORE excited for Christmas!

Fun Photos

Here are a few funny pictures of John discovering that a ladybug had landed right in the middle of his face! Also, a recent photo of Gabe and me at 25 weeks.
