Sweet Bears

 Baby Dexter decided he was extremely interested in what I was crocheting this morning.

Oliver was a cuddle bug

And then there was Rocket. Dexter Morgan was on the One Fast Cat Treadmill and Rocket does not like to share.

Cooking, Cats and Creativity

Rocket J. loves to play with his toys, the problem is that he sometimes plays with them in a way that I don't even think the toy creators intended. I love that about him. Today was no different, he played with his Catit Design Senses Roller Circuit upside down and then emptied all of his toys from his toy basket and played IN the empty basket. 

Started a new piece today. It's going a lot faster than I was thinking. 

Oliver and Jinx

Theres NOTHING like walking into the living room and looking over to the couch and seeing two of your five baby bears cuddling/holding hands. 

Oliver is 1 year and 4 months old and Jinxie is 5, 6 in March.

Cats and Windows

I know, I know. Everyone thinks their cats are the cutest. BUT, look at this face! Baby Dexter Morgan, age 3 (4 in June) loves to watch out of the front window.

Then Rocket and Jinx decide to come in for some camera time. They know when I'm taking pictures and the majority of time, they pose!

New Years Day Hike

So, after a heavy brunch with Ally, Val, Jason and Cole-- it was decided that we should go take a hike to work off some of the food. First Landing State Park is a few minutes drive from our house and we decided to go and take one of the 5 mile hikes.

First Landing State Park is near the site of the first landing of Christopher Newport on 26 April 1607 as they established the first colony in Jamestown. The part is toughly 2900 acres.

So much beauty in one place! Even a swamp looks amazing here!

Val, Ally and I decided to hide in the woods from Jason and Val's son Cole to "scare" them, which started a domino effect of "scares" on the trail for the next 2 hours!

We just had to stop right here and take a moment to appreciate the view. It's insane to believe that this is just a few minutes drive from the house. 

Ah, Jason and Val make such great hike companions. Always up for a photo. Thanks Ally for taking!!
