Michael starts the 7th grade today. |
He is wondering what the day will bring... |

We are keeping Yoku and Yoda separated until Yoku gets
bigger. |

Our new kitty - KIMBA |
Kimba with his beautiful blue eyes. |
Kimba gets along very well with Snickers and Tripod. |
Tripod looking at Kimba's photo shoot. |
Kimba is part grey tabby and part Siamese. He is
very talkative and EXTREMELY friendly! |
He makes himself right at home on our bed. |
Kimba has the sweetest face! |
Snickers taking it all in... |
"Kimba, well... he's still alive only because he still
has his claws!" |
Our remodeled foyer |
This wall now covers what used to be a large opening into
the Formal Living Room (which is now Cathy's office). |
NEW photo of the foyer from above. |
OLD photo of foyer from above - you can see the entrance
to the Formal Living Room on the right. Also you can see the old
chandelier. |
New chandelier in the foyer. All other light
fixtures match (upper hallway, power room, and dinning room chandelier
are from the same suite of lamps). |
Our Bearded Dragons |
Yoda in the back,
Yoshi in the front. Yoda is hugging Yoshi on their first day together
- or do you think he is trying to push him off the edge...??? |
Peek-a-boo!I'm on the prowl
for some yummy crickets. They can't see me in my lookout tree trunk. |
Well, I thought I'd just push some sand around in here
and maybe rearrange some trees... |
Oooo, ooo, teacher?... ah... over here... hey you,
teacher... can i please go to the bathroom...? |
Lurking... |
... and then there was light... |
This is Yoda going right. |
and Yoda going left... |
Hard to see, but Yoshi is waving to you - he is on the
right. |
Yoshi climbing the tree to get a better veiw of the
crickets. |
You are NOBODY until you've been ignored by a Bearded
Dragon... |
