Morning with Remi 3-26-19

When Remi is visiting it is very rare that I get any time with just her. So we were both excited about getting to do that while Kennedy, Kashton and Korin were at school.

Vanessa was working so I took the morning off work. Vanessa brought Remi by after taking the kids to school. Remi had told me she wanted to craft! A girl after my own heart 😊!

We started by having breakfast and her helping me make her favorite food....Pancakes!


I don't use a mix. I have a simple recipe and make them from scratch. They are SO good!

















Eating the fruits of her labor.



















After breakfast we head to the craft room!




She loves to stamp














and then color the images.


















After crafting for a while it was time to take her to Grammer. Grammer wanted some time with her too although she also had Korin but that was okay.














Korin wanted in the picture too!



Have a good one!

Celebrating Kashton's 6th Birthday

Kashton turned 6 on March 5th. We held his party when Remi could come which was March 24th. He didn't care. Dad took him on his birthday to Maverick which is a gym/physical fitness Center. They have trampolines and all kinds of things to jump and play on.

The cousins. Kennedy (9), Krystal (10) and Remi (10).






Keannon and Remi.
















Grandma (Keannon's Mom Karen), Grammer and Keannon with Granddad in the background.










Some of the guests.












It was very windy that day. Keannon is trying to light the candles.










Kashton with his buddies Major (on the left) and Harbor (on the right).











He didn't actual dig into the cake but it made for a fun picture!






















Remi with "Judah Bear".































Gift from Papa Joe pre-approved by Mom and Dad.



































































Gift and card from me and Granddad.




















He was excited to get Indominus Rex on his birthday card!
















I knew Kashton liked dinosaurs and I figured he had a favorite so I asked Vanessa. I had to google it because I didn't know what Indominus Rex was! (It's from Jurassic Park). This picture came up. I printed it and put on the card with a "happy birthday" sentiment and I had a card for Kashton!








We also got him the Indominus Rex toy.











Of the 4 kids, Kashton is the most expressive!












A great time had by all!


Have a good one!

Fancy and Sunset 3-21-19

My pretty Fancy. She still has her winter hair but is beginning to shed with the warmer weather.








































The sky looks like it's on fire!

Have a good one!

Walk About 3-20-19

I recently joined a "walking challenge" called "Walk Across Texas". I was getting my walking in one day (March 20th) and decided to walk downtown...of course taking my camera with me.









A single Bluebonnet by the Little Rock School House. My first Bluebonnet sighting was on March 13th.









The grand Ole' Lady (Baker Hotel).

























































Now this angle was not original to me. I saw another photographer do it and decided to try to replicate. I needed to do it a different time of day. The sun is too bright.









I took this when I realized that the tree limb had thorns. With the cross on the church tower I thought it made for an interesting photo.










































Found some Bluebonnets in downtown!














Bradford Pear blooms are so pretty.










Love the shades of pink!












I need to try to go by here when the sun is setting.


Have a good one!

Spring

Kids went to Missouri to visit family during part of their Spring Break.

Here they are with Dad and Barbara in Liberty, Missouri, March 12th.















I just love these clouds against a bright blue sky.














Spring has definitely arrived based on the wildflowers I am beginning to see. These are Grape Hyacinths. This was taken March 16th.













These blooms belong to an Apricot tree. Taken March 17th.

































I don't know what type of tree this is but the blooms are very pretty!











And so are these.













Also a pretty sunset.


Have a good one!

Adam Hull 3-16-2019

During Spring break I got the opportunity to listen to my guitar teacher perform at Coffee & Cocktails part of The Market at 76067 where I sell my cards. Not sure if he planned it or not I never got to ask but he played a song I had never heard that had my name in it. Made me feel special!
