I Love Springtime!!

Today, Dad & I got ambitious and did some yard work. I thought you might enjoy seeing the fruit of our labors. Presently, we are feeling the fruit of our labors: sore muscles and sunburns. Take a look at the pictures below and see if you agree that it's all worth it.

The top tier is supposed to be a bird bath.

The azaleas in the front are also just full of blooms and beautiful!!

Also, we added a little yard art, compliments of the Mexico Williams. It means "House of the Grandparents".

Finally, toward the end of the day, when I went out to take these pictures, Mama Squirrel came up to the feeder while I was right next to it. I got these pictures of her. She is swollen fat and I expect she'll have babies soon. Earlier in the day, a little male squirrel came up close to Dad while he was tending the feeders. The little rascal got pretty bold and came within two feet of Daddy. I was on the other side of the fence and got to see the hold thing. It was so cute.

Today's work was enjoyable. The sun and breeze were perfect. I wish you all were here to enjoy it with us.

Chloe Cuteness!!

Last weekend, we made a trip to San Antonio to help Matt & Mary with some major yard work. Of course, the fringe benefit for us was getting time with Chloe. Here's a cute video taken soon after we arrived. Pops and Chloe had a great time over the weekend, even though Pops was plenty tired and sore by the end of it.

Shortly after that first video, Chloe decided to demonstrate her new found talent...walking!! She is so cute and walking is her preferred mode of transportation now.

Here's another cute video of Chloe and her Mom. Mary didn't know Grammie was videoing this funny little ditty. Sorry Mary.

Time with the grandkids is always too short. Yet we're thankful for any time we do get to be together, whether in person or over the internet.
