The Dodson Four: January 2014
http://thedodsonfour.blogspot.com/2014_01_01_archive.html
Friday, January 31, 2014. COLD, snowy faces. Ever since our Christmas Eve, first, sledding adventure, Lance has been asking to get out again each time it snows - but this darn COLD, below temperature weather here in the Midwest! Although still pretty cold, Dad made the decision this weekend that even if only for a few trips down the hill, we were going to go sledding. SO I took the opportunity for this short quick sledding adventure to bring the real camera with for a few pics, just a few. SO, for January.

The Dodson Four: Ringing in the New Year
http://thedodsonfour.blogspot.com/2014/12/ringing-in-new-year.html
Wednesday, December 31, 2014. Ringing in the New Year. Another year bites the dust! After a few shopping errands (and really not looking forward to our last stop, the grocery store) We decided to stop in at our favorite neighborhood bar/grill for a drink and popcorn. Popcorn machine wasn't on so in my mind I thought "disaster". and to the contrary it was one of those beautiful, peaceful, relaxing dining experiences! Always ready for a fresh start. Chase's handy work with the iPhone camera! The old Dodson...

The Dodson Four: August 2014
http://thedodsonfour.blogspot.com/2014_08_01_archive.html
Wednesday, August 13, 2014. The day has arrived, his first day of Kindergarten! We talked for weeks about this day (and during the summer months I realized that we both were really ready for this) That being said, it doesn't keep the emotions from catching one off-guard! Not really - is that bad? And I knew deep down he would be ok ( I mean this is my super social, talk to anyone, make friends anywhere, go with the flow, ask questions anywhere you go LANCE! How can he NOT be ok? We (and really I mean HE)...

The Dodson Four: August 2013
http://thedodsonfour.blogspot.com/2013_08_01_archive.html
Monday, August 26, 2013. Lance -1st day of Pre-K. And don't you dare call it "pre-school" folks! Chase is NOT too happy about leaving his brother off - OR the fact that he knows as soon as he gets home it's to bed for nap! And he has definitely protested those starting this new routine) He's also cutting them a little short. Hmmm. The back-pack for the year! And BOY was he excited to be just like his big brother! Lance is not into this picture business - this is what I got for the 1st day of pre-K! My fa...

Friday, April 11, 2014. Backbone - its CAMPING time. FIRST camping trip of the year - Easter Weekend! A tad chilly, but perfect for a campfire! I'm not sure if the boys or Keegan and I were more excited. We can't get enough of the good old outdoors. Painting Easter Eggs of course (without the vinegar the colors aren't too bright! But the Easter Bunny didn't mind, he still found us. Caves, woods, hiking. is this heaven? Lance getting into the picture taking too! Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

The Dodson Four: November 2014
http://thedodsonfour.blogspot.com/2014_11_01_archive.html
Wednesday, November 26, 2014. Festival of Trees FUN! Since school has started for Lance, this was the 1st FULL day of having both boys home again! I was a little apprehensive (and negative) about how the day would go. Because they do so much arguing these days! But we packed the day full of FUN and I couldn't have enjoyed the day any more than I did. These ages around Christmas time make it so much more fun - their smiles, excitement and energy.

The Dodson Four: December 2013
http://thedodsonfour.blogspot.com/2013_12_01_archive.html
Sunday, December 22, 2013. The weekend before Christmas we always look forward to the GANT family get together and celebration! Adult night out then gift opening the next day. Always a good time. I didn't snap too many this year (seemed to be a trend for me this year) The iPhone captured more than the good camera. ah well. Uncle Bryon giving Lance a run for his money - Lance wants attention, he got it! Maybe a few drinks in. Nicky the photo bomber too! FUN, FUN times. Wednesday, December 18, 2013. It's t...

The Dodson Four: Last Hike of the year
http://thedodsonfour.blogspot.com/2014/12/last-hike-of-year.html
Tuesday, December 30, 2014. Last Hike of the year. Keegan and the boys found a new place to hike nearby a few weeks back while I was editing photos - it's a quaint little island just miles from our house right on the Mississippi! We picked a great last day of the year for a hike. It was chilly, but manageable for us all. It makes us look forward to the camping season for sure. We are all able to somehow find a place of peace out walking in nature (Ok, most of the time :-). New Dodson Blog 2015. A few Dec...

The Dodson Four: July 2013
http://thedodsonfour.blogspot.com/2013_07_01_archive.html
Tuesday, July 16, 2013. A July summer day. A quick post from the old iPhone (trying out the blogger app again). Just a fun summer day with the boys! Lance at bug camp while Mom and Chase hang out, then some museum fun for all! Chase is starting to dig the trains! Lance in his bug shirt that Grandma had for his special week of bug camp! Chase's favorite at the museum is visiting the "tuhtuh" as he calls it! But he still is in love with his "fa pas" or firetrucks for the rest of us. Sunday, July 7, 2013.
