Colling Family Portrait

This year has been a busy one for us so far...actually we've been mostly busy making trips to and from the doctor's office. All six of us have been sick at least twice each in the last 6-7 weeks. Not fun. And today was no exception as we rolled up to the office complex our Odyssey has become all too familiar with. Our youngest was having a particularly hard time fighting croup, and so we finally took him in where he ended up needing a steroid shot and is getting more treatments throughout the evening. So far it is helping and he is doing a little better.

So yes, we have been away from the blog for a while and it's not an excuse but rather an explanation as to why we've been a bit preoccupied and haven't spent much [any] time posting in the last few weeks.

We have some exciting things planned for the year ahead, and can't wait to share more when the time is right. But for now, here is a little something on the lighter side -- a fun family shot we did this past Saturday afternoon at the house. Kathie and I decided it was time to fill a big blank space on one of the walls in our bedroom, and cooked up the little beauty below. This print will be going up really BIG and we can't wait for it to arrive!
