 Jesse and his dad chillin on the pontoon.
 Alex on her first day of school. Love those eyes.

 Kids enjoying Willa Wonka and the Chocolate Factory at the candy store.
 Out for a sunday stroll... much different from taking a stroll in our old neighborhood I'd say!
 Some of the wildlife we encounter... our own little animals.
 The kids pretending they are backwards.

Well, here we are living in the country, but not really because we are so close to town. It just feels like we are in the wild west sometimes because of all the wild life we encounter and because we live out on this country road with such raw nature. I have no more excuses to not take photos. It would be such a shame to not capture some of the crazy wildlife we have here! We were on our sunday stroll and found the largest tarantula ever. He was just minding his own business. This was not a spider, it was a small animal! We also have three bob cats who hang out in our yard. They are babies and it seems like the mama is nowhere to be found. Let's see what els... coyotes, owls, crawfish in the creek, snakes, one scorpion. Yes, I said one because I do not expect to see any more of those things! Oh, and who needs a dog when we have a dozen deer hanging out with us? Wild Turkey run across the road when we are driving home and Jack rabbits give us a run for our money. Fun times. Life is good. I love my kids, they are amazing souls. The older they get, the scarier it gets because I don't want them to ever grow up.
