A Cat in the Bag

Look how my Smokey just adores my grocery shopping bag. This cat is crazy! Check out his silly video just below!

We Think...

We think this plant may actually be a PUMPKIN plant! We were sitting outside a couple days ago and Duane said he really thinks it's a pumpkin plant because along our porch area is where we carve our jack-o-lanterns. OH Yeah! I forgot about that. So...maybe this year we will be accidentally growing our very own pumpkin. COOL!

Melanie's Riding Without Training Wheels!

On Monday I just decided to take off the training wheels. I just had an over whelming feeling that Melanie is ready to ride big girl style. She was a little hesitant at first, this girl does not like change. However, just after her first attempt she was thrilled with the freedom and fun riding without training wheels can bring! She's been riding all week long to practice. Just on Tuesday, 1 day after taking off the training wheels, she was zooming around our block like a pro! Go Melanie, GO!

Funny FORD

The picture below is one of the many reasons I like FORD's. Not only are they not in such financial despair that they were able to pass on those ridiculous car bailouts but they are advertising it. I LOVE IT. They should really market that even more by putting it on their commercials, bill boards, etc. I think it's awesome!

Neat Little Science Treasure

We find all kinds of things when we go for walks. Yesterday it was a blue bird egg.

Reading Nook

Melanie made herself a little reading nook. And with all those comfy pillows Brownie couldn't resist joining her.

Happy 4th. Of July!

In the morning we went to a parade in our lil' ole downtown McKinney. Then we went out to lunch. We swam in our pool. Played with our neighbors. Grilled BBQ chicken. And most important, we ignored the law & did 1 mini fountain, and a few sparklers in our backyard. HA! (since BIG Brother/BIG government is probably reading this post I should probably delete it) HA! However, we were extremely safe & used a bucket of water to discard our burning hot sparklers & had the hose going continuously just in case something caught on fire. It was a BLAST of a day. Ton-o-Fun! Happy Independence Day everyone!
