Within the confines of this little cyber-world, you will encounter mind boggling facts (doubtful), side splitting humor (more doubtful), artifacts of great historical significance (we have a lot of old family photos to bore you with), and maybe you will even come across some genuine German/Canadian stuff

(Got your curiosity up, eh?!?)


Of the nine in this family, I am the Canadian. I am out numbered 9 to 1 by Americans. The odds are still in my favor. I am after all, "The Father." Join me on our wonderful journey.

A Boy and His Dog...A Girl and Her Boots

WELCOME...BONNIE BELLE

Bonnie Belle is the newest addition to our family. She is a Black&Tan Coonhound/Lab mix. As you can see, Paul loves her. I love the fact that they will grow up together!



"Hey! Where are you headed?"


"Wait a minute here..."

"I'm outta here."


"Gonna um...pick me some lettuce"

A Little Tribute
This month our family lost 2 special pets. Friday, our dog, had been with us for almost 12 years. Bubbles, our cat was with us for 11 years. They both died this month and we will miss them.


Friday was a very loyal dog, but always ready for an adventure. Once he came home with scars from an obvious "encounter" with a wild boar. He would sit in the middle of the road in front of our Florida house in the country. Even big semis would go around him!



He was always gentle with the babies but he vigilantly protected our house all those years.

Bubbles was Markie's cat and Markie loved her very much. The Lord spared Bubbles' life about 6 years ago. She almost died, but didn't. We are glad we could keep her this long. She was also gentle with the little ones. She put up with A LOT from them!


Here's the little girl who likes her red boots! She takes after her brother, whose boots look like boats compared to hers!

That's my E.J.

Love this! The dog in the background is good natured "Buddy". He is Jason and Ashley's dog.

Happy little girls make for happy pics

Oh - by the way, Paul is standing :)

So long for now!
