OUR NEW FAMILY PET!

So, last week the boys discovered this cute little gal as they went to dry off their football that had fallen into the pool. It was hiding in a towell thrown over a chair. Luckily, they saw it before it saw them. This was a pretty substantial sized black widow and it made the small hairs on my head stand up.

First day of pre-school for Paige

Neil

Could he look any more like a surfer dude?

Owen the cool boogie boarder

Owen even got into the boogie board act with his older bros. He's usually a scardey pants with most everything but this time he surprised us. We had to pull him out of the water when it was time to go.
