My thoughts on chores . . .

Mom: "Owen, I will be right back.  I need to go downstairs to change out the laundry."
Owen: "Why?"
Mom: "It is one of my family chores.  I do the laundry just like you set the table."
Owen: "I think we should get Daddy to do both!"

Blog Backlog: May trip to the Junk Yard

These pictures were taken in May before my daddy graduated.  Momma forgot about them . . . sorry for the major backlog.

 These escalators are in a building on the UT campus.  I LOVE these escalators.  I will miss them.

 Do you remember the junk yard pictures from last year?  Well, we went back.

 The Indian Paint Brush flowers were all over the junk yard and so very pretty.

 The VW Bus Retirement home!

 So many bugs . . . 

Another Sailing Trip

 While Daddy has been on a sailboat in the NorthEast, Momma and I went on a sailing trip with Aunt Nettie and Uncle Bill.

It was a BEAUTIFUL day!  This is the Kemah Boardwalk as seen from the boat, in the middle of the Bay.

 There was a sailing RACE!

 Did I mention it was a beautiful day?  These pictures were taken with Momma's phone - no editing!

 I was pretending the life-lines were helping me steer the boat.

 Sometimes it is hard work!

 It was windy!  We had to put in two reefs (make the sail smaller).

 Boat race!

Beautiful!  We had such a good time!

Descriptions of School

I was talking to Mimi and Pops on Skype and Momma caught my descriptions of my new school on video.  Enjoy!

School day details

Mom: "Owen, tell me more about your day at school."
Owen: "Well, I am sorry to tell you - Carmelo died today."
Mom: "Oh my!"
Owen: Well, well, he didn't die all the way.  He only died a little."
Mom: "Oh?"
Owen: "Well, you know, actually it was only a blood hurt."

A little more fun in NC

 We've been in Carolina Beach, North Carolina with our dear friends BooBoo and LoLo.  We've had so much fun!  We've gone to the beach almost every day.

LoLo took all these pictures.

In this one, I am playing with LoLo's iPad.  Check out how I am on the chair . . . like zero gravity.

 We went to Cape Fear River for dinner and to enjoy a walk.  That's BooBoo sitting next to me.

We went to Elijah's for dinner.  Yum!
