Happy Independence Day

Fred at Work

Albion Basin

Aspen trees and my sister Maggie made for a fun afternoon in one of my favorite places.

Gingerlocks

I went to see the new exhibit at the Hogle Zoo today with my nephews and it was pretty cool, but nothing beat this sight. "I am not happy about what's behind me right now."

Oakley Rebel

I hate to admit it, but I haven't been the biggest fan of dogs lately. It all started when Troy and I moved into an apartment where outside there are two dogs. Two dogs that bark at everything. Besides the incessant barking, dogs lick you with their scratchy slimy tongues and get their smelly hair all over you. But when my brother and his wife brought home this little guy this weekend, my heart softened towards man's best fried. How could it not? Look at that face.

Tessa

This girl is hilarious. So active and expressive, she could keep me entertained for hours. She even knows how to say her own name along with Momma and Dada. Thanks for letting me be your paparazza for an afternoon.

Nora

Little Nora, a long time ago, your mother and I had many adventures which included green, purple, and red hair, sombreros, and scuba flippers. May you have similar adventures in your life.
