My older brothers and me - 1960. Got some fun pictures I've never seen before from my Aunt Carol.  Mom, Carol and I were going through Carols photo albums for pictures of Grandpa and Grandma. Lots of pictures with the cousins too. I just have to get them scanned.

and 20 years ago "fixing" his dads triumph. I THINK he knows what he's doing now.?!

All of a sudden everyone wants my services! That's good I guess - but I already have several unfinished personal projects. Here is a book cover for a friends niece ~ is it too wild?

and if I have the day wrong - Blame your brother! Hope your birthday was happy no matter what day it is!was ;)

...making popcorn for Dad. Nice outfit Bruce ~ it goes with the wallpaper. Does this look like someone else we know (but with better fashion sense) Tyler?!?

My love ~~sigh

Ozzy was voted off Survivor! Arrgggh - He had the immunity idol too. I might have to quit watching!

taken before she was married. The text I am using is from some memories of her and grandpa's life that she had written. They both worked very hard. (And I hate my job?!) Here is a little of what they did together for work.

"We then went spraying barns alot. Started that in 1938 til 1963. At first business was slow and wages cheap. Over the years we sprayed 200 barns and 300 chicken houses and also hog houses. For such a dirty job you had to have a weak brain and a strong constitution. At first I stayed outside then I couldn’t start the engine so I was at the hose inside for most of the years. People would ask “ Won’t it hurt the calves?” if they had any, no one ever asked if it would hurt me. We arranged it so we had the work in one direction went from North and West of Dewar, Barclay , Fox, Jubilee , Hartings and Benardens, all the way to Eagle. V.Frost west of Washburn within a 15 mile radius, went regularly to the Entz farm southwest of Washburn. Worked mostly on Saturday, a good day we cleared $100.00 , That
was a fortune then. We also had 1 or 2 cows then. We peddled milk around town for 10 or 12 years, got 12 cents a quart then and later on 15 cents. Dad also did a lot of repair work around town after so called retirement."

I'm having fun with this! I made this myself!

I'm finally back to working on my book. This is my Grandpa Sondag - my moms dad. I don't have many pictures of grandpa - have to hit up the Aunts I think. He's very handsome, don't you think?

Check out this article. I have to agree - even though I don't like Kristy she has stepped it up the last two weeks. It will be interesting if Tivo is right again.

I'm trying some different lighting to get ready for Senior season. David is a reluctant subject - that's why he looks so excited. But I think it's a pretty good picture of him and maybe some cute girl will see this picture and want to date him. A mom can only hope.

...But... Martha has some good tips!

We are working on a new look for our website. Help me out and check it out here.

This is my most recent picture and it's Halloween. She lives in Arvada CO with her handsome husband and 3 boys ( the triplets) I don't get to see her often or even talk to her much - she's a busy woman. Happy Birthday Barb! I bet your kids made you something interesting and maybe Kevin gave you a day off! Oh and for those that don't know She's my little sister!

one with a messy face! This is Caleb and Max, Bartley and Lori's boys. Lori is very good at posting on her blog so we can see new pics all the time. Actually all Barts' girls are. Check out their links to the right if you have time!

The dogs are as anxious to get outside as everyone else. Lizzie now outweighs Duke. Kinda like the boy/girl thing in my house.
