Cowboy Small is 3!

Our favorite Cowboy Small turned 3 last weekend. We got out our bandannas and celebrated cowboy style.

Saddle up: picking up Cactus and the other horses from the barn

Eureka: searching for treasure amongst the hay

Look out l'il dogies: jumping over the rattle snake

Circle the wagons, it's chow time!

no cowboy beans, just trail mix

"Oooh! America!"

This boy is pretty excited about America.

Happy Birthday, Bucko!

We'll post some pictures from Memphis soon.

Trip to Vicksburg

Took a trip to Vicksburg with Betsy+kiddos to see Nana and Grandpa and met up with Grandpa Bob, Grandma Jane and Aunt Judy. We had a great visit and enjoyed seeing everyone.

At the Mardi Gras parade on Washington Street.

Mama and her snuggler

And here's the photo shoot of the greats together:

You may have thought that it was hardest to get toddlers to look at the camera...wrong! The man in the blue sports coat doesn't look at the camera. Ha ha!

Sometimes you "cheese!"so hard, you can't keep your eyes open.

Boys+ Aunt Judy. JH is smiling so nicely for the camera...M is apparently over it.

And a shot of four generations. Great, huh?

Scott left for a man weekend with Andy when I got home. Here are a couple of nice shots of shorebirds in S. Georgia.

Black skimmers (cool beak, no?). The one in front has a radio tag with the antenna sticking out below his tail.

JH turned 5 this week! We can hardly believe that he's so old. His party was Saturday and we had a great time at the Allison Racetrack. Also, Happy birthday to Mom! We didn't see her as she was stuck in MS due to the Blizzard of 2011.
