The Strudwick File: Tea Time
The Strudwick File: Tea Time
Megyn, Doug, and the kids were among the millions who tuned in to watch all the action in game three of the NBA Finals on Monday. But unlike those millions, Megyn, Doug, and the kids also had plenty of action to keep them entertained at home courtesy of – you guessed it! – Strudwick. We’ll …
The Strudwick File: Thunder Turns the Tables, Part III
The Strudwick File: Thunder Turns the Tables, Part III
In case you hadn’t heard, Strudwick has an older sister named Thunder who is a very good girl. She rarely gets into any trouble of her own, but there is one naughty habit that she just can’t seem to shake and it was on full display last weekend. Megyn came down to the kitchen to …
The Strudwick File: Snack Snatcher
The Strudwick File: Snack Snatcher
The unofficial start of summer is upon us, which means it is prime time for tennis in the northeast. Megyn’s kids all play, and her daughter Yardley’s team had a match earlier this week. She was responsible for supplying the snacks. No big deal, right? WRONG. Sure, packing something up for her teammates to refuel …
The Strudwick File: Introducing Strud van Gogh, Part II
The Strudwick File: Introducing Strud van Gogh, Part II
If you missed last week’s update, Strudwick needed a couple of stitches after chasing a bunny in the backyard and getting his left ear caught on the fence. That led to his new “Strud van Gogh” nickname and also six days sporting his arch nemesis (read: an Elizabethan collar): He was none too thrilled with …

The Strudwick File: Introducing Strud van Gogh
Poor Strud found himself at the vet this week after an unfortunate incident with a bunny in the backyard that said bunny most certainly won. “Welp. We chased a bunny under a fence today and our ear got caught on the fence,” Megyn said. “He tore his left ear! My little Vincent van Gogh!” The …
The Strudwick File: Sweet Relief
The Strudwick File: Sweet Relief
Strudwick has certainly given us plenty to write about the last several weeks. If you haven’t been following along, see exhibit A, exhibit B, and exhibit C. But every once in a while, our four-legged friend takes a (temporary) break from the naughtiness and the shenanigans to remind us why Megyn and Doug can never …
The Strudwick File: Protein-palooza, Part II
The Strudwick File: Protein-palooza, Part II
We are just four weeks removed from the very unfortunate incident we are calling “Protein-palooza.” You can get caught up on the whole saga here, but the spark notes version is that Strudwick somehow got into the pantry, made off with a bag of Jocko protein powder, and went to town on it in the …
The Strudwick File: Strud’s Weekend Wallop
The Strudwick File: Strud’s Weekend Wallop
Welp. It was another banner weekend with Strud. We went out to Yates’ tennis match last Saturday for a few hours and the dogs were in their usual spot – the kitchen/family room/mud room. They had been out on a big hike earlier in the day, so all seemed in order to leave them for …
The Strudwick File: Birthday Boy
The Strudwick File: Birthday Boy
There was lots to celebrate in the Kelly-Brunt home this week. Our pal Strudwick turned five years old, and Megyn’s daughter Yardley rang in her fifteenth birthday. Fortunately, there was no gift snatching like we saw a couple of years ago. Here is that festive throwback: Instead, Strud celebrated his special day the best way …
The Strudwick File: Some-bunny Was Naughty, Part III
The Strudwick File: Some-bunny Was Naughty, Part III
As you may have heard, Megyn’s son Thatcher caused a bit of a scare last weekend when he fainted during Easter mass. Fortunately, he came to quickly and was none the worse for the wear. Megyn, Doug, and the kids spent the rest of the day relaxing with one another and some very festive four-legged …
The Strudwick File: Protein-palooza
The Strudwick File: Protein-palooza
Remember last fall when Megyn shared that Strudwick had started to change his ways? He was still prone to shenanigans, of course, but the incidents were fewer and farther between. If Megyn, Doug, and the kids followed a few house rules, they could generally avoid the chaos that had consumed their lives for the better …
The Strudwick File: Lunch Lessons, Part IV
The Strudwick File: Lunch Lessons, Part IV
This week’s Strudwick File comes courtesy of Megyn’s assistant Abby, who caught our four-legged friend and his normally well-behaved sister, Thunder, in the act of snatching and chowing down on their lunch. Megyn and Abby were supposed to each have their own chicken noodle soup, which means there were once two containers on the counter. …
