I Love Spring!

My miniature roses are blooming and so full of buds for future blooms! I sure hope they do better this year than they did last year!

Sweet Sugars

Mark getting sweet sugars from Geraldine. So sweet!!

Cool Nature

I love nature (except snakes)! These photos are of a cicada emerging from its "shell" and another cicada drying its wings after coming out of its "shell". I've seen them drying their wings before but this is the first time I've ever seen one coming out of its "shell"!

Cool Nature

What an awesome day at the lake we had!! Teri was thrilled when these two dragonflies decided to take a break on her hand and arm. We've decided that we need to spend much more time at the lake more often!

Papa Mark

Papa Mark with his newest baby. Isn't she precious!?!?

Thar She Blows!

We've had a lot of rain over the past 3 weeks. This blow-hole is evidence of just how much rain has come down. The blow-hole is the result of the spillway system that runs under the dam between Lake Cypress and Lake Bob Sandlin. It's hard to believe that 2-1/2 years ago, this lake was almost dry because of the drought!

Fairy Home

I finally figured out where the "dirty dish fairies" live!!

Mr. Milo

Meet Mr. Milo! He is about 3 1/2 months old here and has not grown at all since I got him about 2 months ago. He's so sweet and LOVES our quality snuggle time!

Peek-A-Boo!

I love this photo! I was sitting on the deck watching the baby squirrels empty the bird feeders. At one point we had 3 baby squirrels, 1 large squirrel, and 1 black squirrel in the feeders! Squirrels have to eat too!

Sunrise

What an awesome sunrise this was!

Ick!

Teri is so not sure about the Walking Stick walking on Papa's hat!

Odd Bird

We've been seeing two of these birds in our backyard for the past three days. Even though we have five bird feeders, this bird prefers the hummingbird feeders! It actually drinks out of the hummingbird feeders! Never seeds . . . just juice!

Ewwwwwwwwwwwwww!

Leland was showing Teri that walking sticks don't hurt. He let this thing crawl ALL OVER HIMSELF! I hate these things!!!! It crawled from his head to his butt, back up and around his neck, and up to his FACE!
