Kendall’s Cats
Kendall loved her cats this evening! Of course, Lion is usually tops, but Orange Kitty and Pokey Leopard (we don’t get it either, but that’s what his name was on the tag, and she thinks it’s hilarious, so it stuck!) are also her buds. I just thought she was cute, with a cat in each...

Today was a really rainy Tuesday afternoon, but the kids made up for it with their bright smiles! Kendall was a cutie playing in her Krispy Kreme hat, and Brian was so excited to get a boxed set of the How to Train Your Dragon books!

We weren’t familiar with Turbo, but found the movie on Netflix afterward, and watched it with lunch! Pretty cute. This afternoon, after playing downstairs for awhile (with the kids abusing Brandon by riding him like a horse!) we decided to make use of the canopy we’d bought on the way back from the beach and Brandon’s new grill, and have a cookout. It’s a...
