This is just a pic of the ongoing mess that is this dining room/ entry way.

It's fine, just part of the joy, people always moving and neatening and it coming right straight back again.


Kirsten led this project, got pumpkins, and they spent hours working on these.

Really nice.






Another evening of games and eating and we seem to be good at this.

Love, Mom

mea weekend, last family weekend of the year

The dogs--we've got the next generation of puppies going on and they're living it up big time.

Working from the lake--this is a pretty good spot, honestly.  It looks kind of awful, but the internet works perfectly and no problems.   The sound in this room is pretty muffled too, probably by all the crap stored in here creating a layer of sound proofing.  


This new baby Hazel was a surprise this weekend.   Maria and Dalton's lovely blonde cocker spaniel died on Maria's birthday a few weeks ago, incredibly sad. 

So now life with a puppy is beginning all over again.  She's a golden retriever, Irish setter mix, so adorable.



They posed in the kitchen for this silly pic





And the shrimp in the fryer and the cheese curds, and the Roblox all over the living room, makes for a good evening all together.
Love, Grandma
