What better way to start this off than by showing you who we are:
Here's Jake, the star of the show. Photo credit goes to Al from The Bayfield Bunch.
Ellen, she of many toes.
Lily, the cranky elder with a subtle sweet side. No really, you just have to look for it!
Tucker, the young'un.
And finally, me, second from the right. I may look a tad older now than in this shot. Just add fat, wrinkles and salt & pepper hair and you'll have it. The joy is the same, though.
Stay tuned for a more up to date photo when I can find one. Brace yourselves (because it'll be just that good)!
Am I your first? Commenter, I mean. Looks great!
ReplyDeleteI'll let someone else be the first complainer about CAPTCHA.
Indeed! Thanks for making me popular. It's like being invited to sit with the cool kids in the cafeteria!
DeleteCAPTCHA be GONE!
Thanks, GLD, for leading me here. :)
DeleteI'll settle for second! So happy to see you bloggin!

Hi Grace! I hope things are well in Tucson. Good to see you here!
DeleteHey - congrats on the blog. Now you need to add a "Followers" button so I can follow you. I will anyway, though. You're on my Blogroll. :)
ReplyDeleteThanks Barb! I have a lot to learn about Blogger and templates and settings and whatnot. But what the hey, I have the time! :)
DeleteI'm happy you have a blog Annie. It will be fun to see what you and your bunch are up to !
ReplyDeleteThanks Kelly! Happy to have you along. :)
DeleteOh Annie I just love this. And the pictures of you all especially that little cutie second from the right. You are a better woman than I if you can do the whole blog with only blogger. I know I used to do that but then someone turned me on to Live Writer (PCs only I hear) and it just made everything SO much easier. So hats off to you....I'll trade you comment for comment. Very proud of you Cuz!
ReplyDeleteThanks Cousin! I wonder how many farm kids swam in cattle troughs, or if anyone still does.
DeleteI've heard good things about Live Writer but since I'm on a Mac I'm pretty stuck with Blogger.
Now that it appears I'm finally able to comment again (hopefully not just here) I'll be dropping words on your posts again!
Hey Annie, so great to see you & the furry Kids out here. I think you will really enjoy this blog writing life. Looking forward to hearing more from you & the Kids:))
ReplyDeleteThanks Al! It's so nice to see so many friendly faces popping in to say hi. Glad to have you along! :)
DeleteHi Annie,
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on the new blog! Looking forward to hearing more about your adventures.

DeleteGreat to see you and the kids here, Annie .... It will be lots of fun following you !!!! Thanks for sharing ... All the Best, SallyB
ReplyDeleteThanks for joining us, Sally! I hope you see stuff you like. :)
DeleteWelcome to blogland Annie. So glad you've started this. I've missed your adventures and all the fur babies. Heading to Flagstaff this summer? We NEED to do a pizza. Huh Jake?
ReplyDeleteThanks Gaelyn! Oh yeah, we do need pizza. Did you know our favorite joint is moving downtown? Neither traffic nor parking spaces nor ... well, downtown, will stop us from getting our pizza.
DeleteI don't know when I'll be back in Flagstaff but I sure hope it's when you'll be around, too.
Too bad about them moving downtown.
DeleteWe've got all summer to get together in Flag. Unless you plan to visit the NR.
I'd like to go back up to Utah at some point; if I do, I'd definitely make a stop to see you at the NR.
DeleteWelcome to the world of words and wheels! Glad to see you have yourself a blog and I am looking forward to many adventures! Sorry we didn't get to meet you while we were in T or C and you weren't! Anyways, welcome to the world of blogging!
ReplyDeleteThanks Geri! I'm sorry we didn't get to meet, too. Hopefully our paths with cross someday.
DeleteSo happy to see you online....missed you.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Contessa. I've been keeping up with you, Colin and the girls. I'm so glad Carmeh is on the mend.
DeleteWelcome back to blog world! Love your introduction to yourself:)
ReplyDeleteThank you! It's nice to be back. :)
DeleteGreat to see you started a blog.
ReplyDeleteThanks Nancy, happy to have you here!
DeleteLooking forward to following your travels and seeing what trouble you and the kids can get into.
ReplyDeleteThanks Jodee! Hopefully it won't be too dramatic. The trouble, that is.
DeleteI am so glad Roxanne published a link to your blog!!! I read every word of the GLD adventure and hoped you would star a blog of your own! I will read yours now from beginning until now. So exited!
ReplyDeleteWelcome aboard! Glad to have you here! And the good news is you won't have to read much to get caught up. :)
DeleteAlways a little late to the party but I almost NEVER miss one entirely, Annie, Am loving your sunset/rise pictures.
ReplyDeleteThanks Marianne!
