Cuddlin' Cousins



I got to watch Abby and Nathan while Jenny had a get-together for work. Janie LOVED the attention they showered on her. After snow cones they were cold, so they shared a blanket while they watched a movie, and Janie didn't want to be left out. She had her own blanket, but she felt included, and couldn't wipe the grin off of her face. It was even cuter in person! - Laura

Sunset at the Park


I think everyone was outside snapping pics of the sunset tonight. At one point the reflection off the clouds made the whole outside look gold, or pink, or greenish - depending on where you were. I know Kevin and Ashley took some from their viewpoint too. Maybe they'll post one or two also. Enjoy!

A Texas Sunset









In our part of Texas, the most natural beauty we can boast is in the sky - and WHAT A SKY!

Playing peek-a-boo gets a grin.
Look! It's a birdie!
Almost ready to take some steps.

Hawks!

There were four hawks at our office last week-nesting in the trees above and feasting on the abundance of squirrels and birds. One captured a mockingbird (you can see bird feathers all over the ground) and another hawk tried to take it away... they were grabbing it back and forth. They are really beautiful creatures.

Also, anyone interested in the area might want to check out the Friends of the Kickapoo Valley Reserve website. There will be a Homecoming on the Reserve July 3-5th. I am sending Widmer pictures to them for one of their projects for the celebration. And I hope to attend. Anyone coming to WI this summer?
