Wilton's Beach

Still catching up from the summer . . . obviously is not this warm here. Our little beach is just 5 minutes from the house. We visited it quite often and really enjoyed the warm weather.

Summer Ball

Sean had an interesting summer playing ball in Connecticut.

As a parent I had an interesting time watching the lack of

respect for coaches, parents or anyone playing.

Sean played well and was a good sport but is greatly looking

forward to spring baseball in Texas.

Yes, we will be sending him to Texas so he can play with his

team one last time before mission and college.

Spring Baseball with Daniel

We had a little bit of an adjustment to CT's rules for baseball . . . . no score keeping and no stealing bases . . . . what?

Perfect hit for Daniel

This is how April likes to enjoy CT baseball . . .

Backyard Beauty

Loving the beauty right out our back door.

This beautiful Hawk landed while we were trying to watch conference this spring. We just had to go out and snap a few pictures.

This Hawk actually hung around all summer hunting the little creatures in our backyard.

How about this lovely vibrantly colored Cardinal?

. . . and of course the deer came to visit as well. We saw them just about every evening at dinner time which drove Indy and Breann crazy.

Spending Time With the Washburns

Cutie girls laughing together!
