Photo catch up

Look at Zaida's nice big (deer leg-bone) treat that she found in the woods a few weeks ago. She was so proud and came running to show me her treasure.

There was a deer "shin-dig" out by the pond.

Last weeks snow.

Baseball on Friday.

Oliver enjoying the beautiful weather over the past weekend.

This was only the second time EVER for Ellie Mae to go outside. (She is an indoor kitty) She loved hanging out with Zaida.

Basketball fun on Sunday afternoon.
