THE ATWOOD EFFECT

These are just a couple of pictures sent to me by the magic of picture mail. They were thanks to Heathers sister Melissa Atwood (or Mrs. Atwood as she like to be called now that she teaches at Woods Cross High.....which is a little over the top if you ask me) and the effect she and her family have on Charley.

Melissa did actually give her a spoon for this pudding but says she didn't know that Charley would acually use her face as a kitchen utensil.

We are taking care of the Atwoods two daughters Taylor and Jess and their awesome American Bulldog named Koda while they are in Hawaii. Last night Charley and Koda bonded. This is just after Charley taught Koda to play peek-a-boo. She is the strongets dog I have ever seen but when she gets around kids she is basically content to be a big pillow.

Every Tuesday is park day when all of Heathers sisters (and now both of mine) and a few of their friends go a different park and let all the kids loose do their best to murder each other using nothing but playground equipment, wood chips, and raw strength. Charley always managers to end up playing with her buddy Drew (my sister Kim's son) who is only 5 days older than she is. They love hanging out. Please notice the size difference here. But size in this case doesn't matter because she is deadly with the wood chips.
