We have a cat with no name,
but lately I've been calling her Baby.
She was a cute little kitten when we got her - so adorable and fun. She didn't like our dog, Lucy, so she'd run to us to get away.
Now she's a year and a half and since she's grown up with our dog as her mentor, she often exhibits dog behavior. Such as: tapping on the window to go outside, running to the door when the doorbell rings, and now she sits on the bar stool to watch us make food in the kitchen while Lucy is at our feet, waiting for something to drop.
Here is a picture of her "posing" for the camera. Maybe she learned that from Kailey?! We are grateful for the animal members of our family.
Speaking of members of our family....
We miss these two so much.
We are grateful for the holidays,
which give us an excuse to take a
break and allow us to be together!
We spent a relaxing weekend visiting,
playing games, watching Caden play
soccer, and eating good food.
This is our annual family picture.
These together moments
are so precious that we must
document them when they
happen.
Life is fragile.
We are grateful for every
day we can be together.
Caden is our family funny bone.
It used to be Erica but now she's
Jefferson's funny bone.
He's learning to play the
clarinet this year so he can
play the electric guitar next year.
(Pre-requisite to Jazz band).
He's learning how to play power
chords in rock songs on his
electric guitar - like Crazy Train.
It's really fun to hear him play
a recognizable and famous song.
We are grateful for our talents.
We are also grateful
we can learn new skills.
This is Parker working
on tying his tie.
Perfection takes lots and
lots of practice.
Fortunately, he's young
and will have many years
to practice before he goes
on his mission!
