meet our fam

I decided to create a written record of my life -- my boy, my dogs, my dreams, my home. 

Kyle and I are soon-to-be-married twenty-somethings in love with each other, our lives, travel, and our dogs.

[the king of the house, Ned Kingsly Plimpton Zissou Riddles]

Ned likes to sleep in the crooks of legs, go for daily walks and park visits, and to hoard his bones under the coffee table.  He's a terrier mix but don't let his jack russell appearance deceive you - he's not only calm but always sleeping and lazy.   

He rules the house with an iron paw. 

The Queen of our lives & resident laundress,  Mighty Dog. 

Mighty Dog (not a feminine name, though she's a feminine lady) is the queen of our hearts, our house, and our entire block. She romps through the neighborhood with her head held high, chasing squirrels and hunting for small rodents. She also has first call on clean laundry and won't let us fold or put away anything until she has soaked all the heat out. She's a fierce swimmer and has tackled the atlantic ocean from the oregon coast farther than most water dogs would swim. 

My littlest // we're inseperable

Samson is the love and light of my life (uh, well, besides kyle) - he's almost one year old, and always with me anywhere he is allowed. Vacations, grocery shopping, pharmacy trips, errands, coffee stops, liquor store, always. He sleeps right next to me and we're the very best of friends. He likes to torture his sibs and eat, eat, eat.

We hope you enjoy following the daily lives of our little family. <3 <3.
