Too much TV?

Hinx's first camping trip!!!! (Ella's too, better late than never)

Wide eyed and bushy tailed

Snug as a bug in a rug.

Yeah, we need to go more often.

We can't wait for the Fathers & Sons outing next May.

It's hard work being a cute little bugger

Ells Bells

My Beautiful Blondes

Life is great!

Ella couldn't have been happier camping with
So many things to explore and chase.

And she always asks for MORE

A kid's gotta learn sometime

...

We roasted mallows...

Shot slingshots and ate bananas...

And played around at Tlaquepaque

"Wash the hands"

Sedona

Ells loved the many fountains

...and the pig.

She went around smelling all the flowers one by one.

Ella's first driving lesson

Sitting on the curb after getting pulled
over in Mexico....BUSTED!!!!

Fishing Christopher Creek

Pops and Rob fishing "the big hole" at
Christopher Creek

In our family there's three things we're never late for:
church, work and fishing.

Geez Paulie!

Given it's the end of summer, the water is super low,
and they haven't stocked fish for 2 months, the biggest we got
was 12 in, with most more like 6.

Eventually, all things merge into one, and a river runs through it.
The river was cut by the world's great flood and runs over rocks
from the basement of time. On some of those rocks are timeless
raindrops. Under the rocks are the words, and some of the words are theirs.

En La Piscina

Ella loves swimming at the beaches of San Lagos

Can I get some more water in my sippie cup?
Oh and Miss, Shaken, not stirred!

Ella took this last pic herself, she loves pictures.

I thought they said everything was BIGGER in Texas!
For the record, my stomach hasn't stopped gurgling since.
