Vultures on the roof

So, this freaked me out just a little.  I was working inside one day and kept hearing these big flapping sounds and thumps on the roof.  I looked outside and saw 4 vultures on the carport in the back and then went looked out the front window and saw 5 or 6 more vultures sitting on the fenceposts.  I can only imagine that there were several on the roof of the house, too, given the noise level.  I didn't particularly like being surrounded by scavenging birds!

Brandon loses a tooth and gains a hickey

Another one gone!

He managed to do this on the bus with a miniature suction cup.  It lasted several days!

Derek's Duathlon

Don't have any pictures from the actual event, but Derek participated in the Bluewater Bay Duathlon today and placed 1st in his age group.  It was a 3K run, 15K bike, and then 5K run.  This is a picture of him getting his "winner's mug."

Going away party for Madi and Gabi

Two of my Young Women recently moved to St. Louis and we had a little going away party.  I didn't even realize when I pulled out Mad Gab that it was their names!

Awards Day again

It was another fruitful awards day for Kaylee.

However, Brandon wasn't so lucky today.  He is still chasing the illusive honor roll.
