Boo and Roo

Sampson the Maniac

Sampson is also known as Marley at our house. I had to upload this picture of him because it cracks Briley Boo up every time she sees it! We got Sampson as the kids dog but he has taken a liking to me. Briley will do when its bed time or when Mommy's not around. I think he will be the one to suffer the most when fall semester starts back and I have a crazy teaching schedule!

Lighting Bug Catching & the Park

These two things are BIG deals at our house. My husband laughed and thought I was crazy when I saved the pickle jar, scrubbed it up and poked holes into the lid. Oh, it could've been pony for all Briley cared. It was the "GREATEST IDEA EVER, MOMMY" according to her. I hope the small things like this still thrill her when she is older-- well, in most cases.

Mr. Squirrel

Below is Mr.Squirrel that we met up close and personal the night Dane and I took Briley to audubon park and gave her a digital camera to shoot whatever she wanted. Of course, I got this shot but she loved him being sooo close. I think if it weren't for that delicious peanut butter sandwhich, he would've been long gone when we came close. I've been joking with her ever sense that the squirrel was disappointed that he sandwhich was missing the jelly!
