The newest member of the Brassell family!!


One more Brassell?? yep, another one...a boy this time....handsome with hazel eyes and brown hair and lots of muscles!
Ok ok,,, a puppy! yaya!
a chocolate lab (AKC) that we got from some nearby people and needed a new home!!
So, his name is Hines Ward (just like the Steelers player!!! Go Steelers)





The kids adore him already, and he has some pretty good manners too!

he is mostly housebroken... :-)

barks when strangers come to the house,

chases frogs,

licks everyone in the face,

and loves to fetch anything that you throw!


Hines is 7 months old and still a sweet puppy who will put his head in your lap to go to sleep and still needs his naps! He likes to get up with me at 4 or 5am when I am getting Grayson her bottle and follows me through the house...how nice that will be when John is on his trips this summer!

kids at park

these kids are growing too fast! Grayson is lying in the grass and trying to figure it out while the other kids run and play...

Camden poses in front of a beautiful birch tree with a hydrangea she picked....

Maddy and a classic poser picture! still beautiful as always!

And finally..all together now! John is really much taller than you can see in this picture...i had him stand with the girls sitting...he is 5'6 now and wears a mens 12 shoe....what is he eating?
