Happy Birthday Charley!

3 years ago today Charley was born. While I don't have pics of him as a newborn, I do have pics I'd like to share. Happy Birthday Charley!

 Charley is one of these guys. They are about 4 weeks old here.

And now, here's Charley today, at the ripe old age of 3. Happy birthday buddy! You've turned into a great dog. (Sorry for the crappy cell pic)

SNOW! Yay snow!

So, Eric got a wonderful birthday gift: 6+ inches of snow! The weather people had said we'd be lucky to maybe 2 inches at the most. Well, surprise, surprise! This is going to be a picture heavy post, so consider yourself warned. Oh, look for the birthday post for Eric later on!

 The snow as it was falling. We got 6 inches in 2 1/2 hours. It was crazy.

LONG weekend

We had a wonderfully enjoyable LONG weekend. We spent it cleaning out the garage, watching movies, playing the Wii, and just spending time together as a family. We ended the long weekend by heading out to Bluff Point. It was such a nice day today we couldnt resist. Below are some pictures from that. The girls and I also spent some time tonight making Halloween wreaths. They wont be fully dry until tommorrow, so I'll post about them then.

Charley just LOVED the water.
