Summer in the North Country













Lots of changes here since Easter. For one thing we now have a lawn and flowers. For another, we have a new dog. Bruce is still working long hours but since we live on post we get to see a lot more of him between tasks. Also, he doesn't have nearly as many TDYs as he did in Germany. In fact, he had time to run in the Flying Pig Marathon in Cincinnati this past spring. We've also been busy this summer with trips to the beaches at Lake Ontario and playing in the waves, a daytrip to Cranberry Lake in the Adirondacks, a day at the Renaissance Festival in Sterling, VBS, and playing dinosaurs with her neighborhood friends. This summer I took on the volunteer position of Storytime Coordinator at the Post Library so I have the awesome pleasure of creating storytimes twice a week for the kids and helping out with the Summer Reading Program. Now the weather has turned cooler and we are looking forward to the fall colors. Our new pound puppy is excited about the cooler weather as well. His name is Nudge (Lolo changed his name from Sarge...just wouldn't do to run around yelling Sarge on this post) and he's about a year old and, most likely, purebred. Well, enough chatter....on with the pictures!

Nudge does look very purebred...and very much like he's going to be a huge dog! He is cute. Y'all are doing fun things as usual. I love your parenting style of keeping Lolo intersted in so many different things. That is wonderful!

I agree! He does look like a purebred! He is so cute!
Good to catch up with you! Lolo is growing up so much! Can you believe! Kindergarten!!! I really don't know what it will be like tomorrow!
I am sure I will let everyone know!
