Old summer days and new additions



 Sparky came to us in late June, a 4lb miniature schnauzer puppy.  He's so sweet, loves playing with the boys, and follows me around all evening until I finally sit down and then he curls up in the chair beside me to cuddle.
 Isn't he adorable?!
 And, we brought back two sweet kittens from Grandma and Pop pop's house.  Sam and Muffin live on the porch (for now) and have doubled as rag dolls for the boys--what great sports they are!  Never a scratch or hiss for their boys.
 Aidan named Muffin...after many renamings (first it was Gigi, then Carolina, then Muffin-Carolina-North Carolina-Russell...and that's what we're stickin too)
 This was one morning at 8:15am...imagine how crazy the rest of the day went ;)
 Richard's reading through the Chronicles of Narnia--I think this night he was finishing _The Magician's Nephew_
 Waiting for Grandma and Pop pop to drive up
 Connor caught two gigantic 5lb gaspergou drums on the Brazos River, using his spider man kid's fishing pole!
 And, Aidan caught an anchor :)
He and pop pop had a blast sitting on the bank eating peanut butter crackers, just chilling out and enjoying the morning.
 Me and Aidan at the Gaylord pool
 Having so much fun swimming
We had a great end of summer vacation in Dallas.  We visited the Perot Museum, the Dallas World Aquarium, stayed at the fabulous Gaylord Texan, enjoyed swimming at their fun water park, and toured my new campus at Baylor Nursing School (more to come about this later!)
