Swim Lessons

The boys took swim lessons from Mrs. Suzy again this year. She is an awesome teacher. We decided to send Zane since he is such a daredevil. :)

This was the end of June in Pantego.

Sweet Baby Speaks

I'm in the house doing laundry before we head north again for the ... I think 3rd or 4th time this month. The boys are all outside with their daddy working on the garden, chickens, chores, etc. In walks Zane ...

Zane: "Candy"

Mama: "Zane doesn't need any candy."

Zane: "Zane candy"

Mama: "Zane hungry?"

Zane: "Aye"

Here's where I wonder if we have given birth to a pirate or an Irishman!?!

Mama: "You can have a graham cracker."

Zane: "Cracker, yeah!"

Our baby is so cute. He's finally using two word sentences!

Asa's First Report Card

Many of you may not know that Asa was promoted to Kindergarten mid-year. He brought home is first report card today and got all A's and S's. He was so cute showing it off, but not really understanding what it was. He only knew that his brother got lots of attention when he brought his home. :)

Wild Turkeys

We have so much fun looking out the window every morning to see the wildlife. On the morning of November 22nd, there were about 30 turkeys in the front yard.
