Beagle Buddies

Hello friends,
We have this sweet foster girl, Khaki the little lemon beagle. And as part of our agreement, we take her out and show her off at adoption events. On Sunday, we had to go to Pizza Lounge in Dallas(across from Fair Park..which is a really cool area) with Khaki. We took Anderson and some books and puzzles. Not that he even looked at one book and this picture of him doing the puzzle was when he sat still for 1 second. He ran around like a crazy person and kept opening the doors for people and trying to tie the beagles to the chairs...silly boy!

 Love me some beagles!

Has no relation to the story...but I loved this picture of A in Dada's boots

Good reports and other things

Hello friends,
Anderson goes to school at the church on Tuesdays and Thursdays. Every day that I pick him up and he has a gotten a good report or a smiley face, we go somewhere fun and usually free. Usually we go to the park, or to feed ducks, the pet store or on animal roads and we take apples and carrots to feed them. It's such beautiful land and is very peaceful.

Thursday, I picked up Anderson and he had a good report(yay!)he was even the calendar helper which means that he gets to decide how they were going to do for February 21. He decided they should jump 21 times...he said the class was tired! Haha! I asked him if he did it too, and he answered "no, I was the helper" I love this kid.

We drove down our animal road and saw horses and donkeys and fed them. Well, they were being snobby and wouldn't eat the apples. But, we threw them over anyways.


On Friday, Bekah came and stayed the day with us. We took Anderson, Bekah and Baby Charlie to the Stockyards in Ft. Worth. It was a blustery day. But the kids had a lot of fun!

 I love this picture! It cracks me up! The camel was trying to lick Anderson!!

 This is even funnier, Bekah was running and Anderson was squatting down.

 This horse was getting a new pair of horse shoes. Just thought it was a neat picture.

 One of the cowboys who works at the Stockyards. Anderson wants me to say that we also saw a Indian with war paint on his face. Pretty scary, he says!

 Adam and Charlie

 So cute!

 The kids found this one horse, who would eat hay all day if we would feed him.

 Even Baby Charlie got in on helping us feed him.

Life through the view finder

Hello friends,

I have just recently taught Anderson how to use a camera. It has opened up a whole new world for him and it's funny for me to see things as he sees them! Ha! These are his pictures that were on my camera.

 Some of them are quite artistic! I love the self portrait of his little hand on the left side.

 I like this one!

 This little lemon beagle(they are called that because they don't have the black like the tri colored do) is Khaki. She's our newest foster pup. She's 6, house trained, good with kids and very loving girl!

Fun times

Hello friends,

We went to our friend's house last night and played Mexican Train the domino game. It sounds not so fun...but really is super fun!

Paula and Casey

The kids played for hours, sorry the picture is not that good. It's hard to get them to stand still for long.

Today, the weather is beautiful and warm 74, so we went to The Ft. Worth Nature Center and Refuge. We hiked, part of the way Anderson got tired and ended up riding on my back. Sorry for the tummy on me, A was pushing my tummy out being on my back(or so I like to think;)

We saw some animals, which made Anderson's day. Heron, owls, bobcat, and ducks. They have buffalo, but we didn't see them. :( Oh well next time.

 

 I can't believe how tall Anderson is getting! I am thinking that the pediatricians estimation of 6'2 was right!

 What was I telling him? So serious ;)

 

We are loving this spring like weather and I am REALLY ready for Spring and Summer to hurry up and arrive!
