Merry Christmas from the Pihls!

Merry Christmas!  This year has shown Mr. Pihl and myself more blessings, love, and opportunities than we could have possibly imagined.  What will 2015 have in store for us?  Only our Lord knows!

Merry Christmas to you and yours,

Love Mr. & Mrs. Pihl {and the bird}

2014 Opening Ceremony

3 Day Rundown... Coming Soon!

Truth!
Whew!  What an experience!  In case you missed it, I spent this weekend walking in the Susan G. Komen 3-Day 60 Mile Walk.  I made it back safely, and I have dozens of photos and stories to share with you!  I promise they'll come soon.  For now, I leave you with this:


Because there's nothing better than a dog wearing a bra doing tricks.  What a cutie!
