WIth the weather turning nice again, we've been trying to get out and get active. One particular morning we took a nature 'hike' through the Riparian Preserve on search for Burrowing Owls. Unfortunately, we were too late in the day to find any owls but we did have an amazingly fun time together.
About a month ago Uncle Sevy and the boys treated all of the cousins to a Cardinals v. Raiders Game. They had an amazing time together. It was a great treat and one that I hope they do not soon forget.
While Mommy was away on another work trip, Daddy took W and A to the Halloween store. They came back with a new friend and he's agreed to stay around the house and to protect us.
While Mommy was away working, Grams came and stayed with the boys. They had a fabulous time playing and reading and visiting local attractions. The boys had Grams undivided attention...and they loved it.
My poor boys! They are both so sensitive to bug bites. One little mosquito bit turns into a massive golf ball sized lump. Mosquitos and ants swarm poor little W and he is miserable afterward.
>> Last week we had an amazing storm here. We took the kids to the zoo in the morning with the weather report stating scattered showers throughout the afternoon. Well, we were only at the zoo for an hour or so when the sky turned black. We barely made it home before the storm hit. It was by far the worse storm that I've seen in our time here in the desert. When all was said and done, we were hit by three separate cells and our entire yard was under 3 inches of water. These photos don't begin to do justice to the fun storm. Thankfully we had no damage to our home.
