Kashton Moves Into The Double Digits

 Kashton turned 10 on March 5th. We celebrated his birthday on March 6th with family and a few friends at Old School Pizza.

I gave him his present on his birthday before I knew Vanessa was going to do the celebration.

He was celebrated well!

Have a good one!

Chest bump.

Have a good one!

Do You See Me? 03-01-2023

On March 1st I arrived to feed the horses. When I pulled up I thought I saw something large in the trees. I suspected an owl. I quickly parked and grabbed my camera.

Can you see him/her? They are very well camouflaged in the trees.

I was very excited to get this picture! 

Have a good one!

Wildlife 02-20-2023

I made a new crafting friend. She has a crafting room in her house. We made a date to craft

February 20th. They live on property that has a small lake. There is lots of wildlife that comes across their property. I took some time to take some pictures and stretch my legs a bit.

They have lots of different ducks.

And some Canadian Geese.

It seems these have decided to relocate permanently to Texas. (Can't say that I blame them!) It helps that my friend feeds them every day! 

Saw a couple of turtles too!

I got to end the day with this beautiful sight!

Have a good one!

Korin Plays Basketball 02-11-2023

Vanessa signed Korin up to play Upward Basketball. It's a basketball program through a local church that teaches kids the fundamentals of basketball as well as sportsmanship and teamwork.

They don't really compete with one another but scrimmage each other. This was the only "game" I was able to attend.

I took a short video clip of her playing.

She has the ball!

She dribbles!

and she loses the ball.

Korin hasn't quite found what she likes to do yet. Vanessa wanted her to at least give basketball a try. 

Have a good one!

Have a good one!
