In Memory of Homer

Homer, my Uncle Alex and Aunt Cheryl's dog, passed away last night due to cancer. He was a member of the family for nearly 14 years so this is a painful loss for everyone but especially for my aunt and uncle. But, we will all remember Homer fondly and with love. He was a goofy dog but so fun and good natured. Just look at that fluffy guy. You couldn't help but love him. I'll always remember Homer for teaching me about "the fan". He used to hang out in front of a fan 365 days a year. At first, I thought he was kinda crazy but one hot summer day, Dad got me a fan and it changed my life. I, too, spend most of my summer sprolled out on the cool tile in front of my fan and I have Homer to thank for that. I'll miss you, dear cousin, but I'll never forget you. Rest peacefully.

A Whole Lotta Nothin'

We went fishing a few weeks ago at Peace Valley Park in Bucks County. We caught a whole lotta nothin!!!! But, it was a beautiful morning and we got to spend some time with Uncle John and Aunt Debbie. We had plenty of hot coffee, tea and snacks to keep us happy. The highlight of the morning was seeing a bald eagle fly over the lake. A short while later, a hawk of some kind dove down to the water and caught a fish. She made it look so EASY!!! Why couldn't we catch anything?

I walked into the water to help Mommy catch something but my efforts were futile.

Ahhhh, here's a cute fish!!!!

Bubbles and 11 Months

Nate and I like to sit on the grass and watch bubble float by. Nate is getting pretty good at reaching out and popping them. But mostly, we just watch.

Ack! A bubble popped on my head!

Nate turned 11 months old on Labor day. Here are some photos of us to mark the occasion.
