I found a whole new way to communicate with my nephew! :)

I really like the concept Andy explored here! A pencil drawing double entendre. :)

Closed, really, why?

No pets alcohol? Chicago is weird!

Andy started a wood burning epidemic a couple nights ago. :)

Habla Español por favor? The boys and I practiced a little tonight. :)

What a great day for a walk in the back forty!

Hunting anyone? See why?

A little neighborhood exploration with my gang. :)

A standing room only crowd at church today!

Crafts in the workshop with my boys. :)

I love having kids!

Sammy found a worm that had fallen into the water dish :)

All in the name of progress...

The sunset and a wind chime. Sure am appreciating the nice weather!

Our neighbors are a bunch of chickens. :)

Aqua is in on the action too!

Spending some time reading, with Johnny, as we wake up today.

Cauliflower and I made a quick trip to Orlando this week. You can click on the link at my blog to see the whole trip.

Which wolf?

A spider even Julie will wear!

Seriously?!

A new addition, Johnny's bat skull!

Not a bad place to spend a couple of days, but it was hot!

Sunshine!?

Travel... Good to be home!

Dragon antics!

Smaug was playing tricks while Andy was trying concentrate on school! ;)

Neighbor's limb fell. Check out he power pole in the background...

You know what they say... Where there's smoke there's fire!

Andy is the quiz master on these books. He can pretty much tell you what's happening on any page you might open to...!

Another week, another breakfast, another Buddy. :)

I had a nice time with Andy for prayer breakfast today. It was good to hear what's on his mind and heart.

Isaac rigs up just about anything he needs.

Isaac and Johnny built a "tower"

A beautiful day for a little shooting! :-)

I knew we were all awesome. Haha. 6 out of 10 ain't bad in one family!

3 out of 10 in one household.

Just relaxin' with my buddy.

Cousin good times!

Something odd is going on in our house...

Winter's not so bad...

Andy is experimenting with 3d drawing. He's going for the look of a cube sitting on the paper.

First you draw it "elongated", then cut out half of it, then look at it from the side.

Truism

Andy was asked to write historical fiction for writing. This was all his idea and work! Love it!

He's blossoming into quite the writer!

Andy captured Brutus' personality perfectly!

Waffa!

I like the help we're developing in the kitchen...
