Frankie turns 4 and Milo is 1!

Frankie loved her 4th birthday party with lots of friends and sparkly things. And Milo had know idea what was going on but he's happy to turn 1 year old. Well, he's almost always happy.

When I told the kids the news, they immediately wanted to draw pictures of Chopper so they "can remember what he looked like". What a great way for them to deal with it.

Chopper Nov. 2001 - Nov. 2015

My best buddy Chopper passed away on Tuesday. He recently turned 14 years old. Thank you Chop for the 4000+ walks...and more than you could know.

Such a sweet, funny baby! How did we get so lucky???!!!

Two unicorns, a blue dragon, and Octavious Brine walk into a bar...

 Spooky faces

Telling spooky stories

Trick or treat!

An especially autumnal autumn

Three kids in one picture! Woo hoo! (It's really hard to get them all to be in the same frame.)

Our gorgeous tree, with a dweller.

Freeze tag!

Milo likes to eat leaves, and get smooches from his buddy Juliet.

Getting ready to race

I've been getting a lot of help on the roadster from friends and family and am so grateful for that. Ready to race on Oct. 3 in Wildwood, NJ!
