We have been having family dance parties lately and Amy likes

to get dressed up for them...at least half way.

Her favorites are Bob Marley and Talking Heads.

Amy and I dropped Gretchen off at the groomer and

they had the same hairdo when we picked her up.

More pictures taken by photographer and friend Curtis Baker.

This is one of Amy's favorite things to do lately.

We watch birds and squirrels from the kitchen table during lunch.

We love seeing the squirrel stretch and straddle like an acrobat for some bird seed.

Giddy-Up!

While daddy slept in a little bit this morning,

Amy and I played dress up with her bows.

Then we went outside to get our hands dirty and do some yardwork.

Mike cut down lots of low hanging tree branches,

I pruned the shrubs, and Amy took the

clippings and planted them in her garden.

Then we hung Amy's favorite swing in the front yard.
