"We can’t predict all the struggles and storms in life, not even the ones just around the next corner, but as persons of faith and hope, we know beyond the shadow of any doubt that the gospel of Jesus Christ is true and the best is yet to come." - L. Tom Perry

Oh, it's there

Bryant is shaving! so we made it a family affair and got out the camera. If you look closely, there really is hair. No surprise, Porter has been shaving for about a year now, lucky for him that I didn't blog back then. Bryant really wanted to keep this whole ordeal a private matter, but this is the stuff blogs are made for. Sorry Bry.

A Real Family

This is Tatum. We sort of inherited her from some friends that were moving and couldn't take her with them. We really aren't "dog people", but I think that will change. She's fitting in quite well with us and we all love her. She had a companion dog and they were seperated with the move so she's had to adjust to that and to becoming an outside dog. She sleeps in the garage at night and roams the backyard during the day. She is so well trained that not only does she not go to the bathroom in the garage, but not in the backyard either. She waits till we take her on a walk. The kids walk her twice a day, and that seems to work for her. They kids love playing with her. She has been the perfect dog to transition this family into a "Real Family" - one that owns a dog.
