a little tanky

for those of you that don't know...

this little dude


is pretty much part of the family.
we got him for 50 cents at a yard sale 2 summers ago (don't worry, we put him through a nice hot cycle in the washer) and for some reason, he has become a part of us :)
the boys buy things for him, (including the wonderful sled you see pictured) he celebrates birthdays, and he is loved by many (including the curriers and boulters...the kids, not the parents :))
his name is tank.
sometimes we call him tanky
(yes, i said "we")

soo..aj and ry wanted me to take pictures of him sledding with them yesterday.
and here they are.






i love that 50 cents can bring so much happiness! is it time to yard sale again yet??

  4. Some families have pets - you have Tank!! Anything you can enjoy like that makes times special. Adam used to have an imaginery friend!!!! He ate with us and played with him - but slept downstairs.................

  5. My boys had a stuffed dog they named Woofy. I crocheted clothes for him and made a tail b'cuz when we got him (yard sale, of course) he was missing one.
