Mahalia at 9 months

Big Brother gets his own post

This is my grandson, Kaden, and a new "big brother" to Mahalia! He's already awesome, so we know he will be an awesome big brother!

Beautiful little one

We are so happy and excited to have a new addition to our family! My daughter and son-in-law had a beautiful daughter born on Sept. 6. May I present to you, Miss Mahalia Mae Pollard....


and the handsome guys holding her? Those are my two babies, and Mahalia's uncles. I will apologize right now to you, Miss Mahalia....you have 2 crazy uncles! But always know this.....they both love you very much!

Our protector (posted up)

This is our bunny. He has been with us for quite a few years. He has a friend that sits close by. A squirrel. But our bunny takes care of our front yard. He's pretty cute and brave. Although he's not actually a "real" bunny, we love him. And he helps me get alot of practice shooting!

Spectacular View from our backyard

I wanted to share this photo with you. I LOVE my new Sony. The colors are awesome. Just check out the view that we get to see EVERY TIME we go out on our deck. Beautiful woods, sometimes we'll get lucky and spot a few deer. They have been in the subdivision for a long time (yes, it's a rural subdivision), so they basically just stop and look and continue on with whatever they were doing. But back to my camera.....check out the beautiful greens! What did you ask? What is that heap of fencing, metal, torn tarps? Is it THAT obvious? It is? Really? I never really noticed. (insert sarcasm here) In case you're interested in the heap, there are normally three dogs inside the heap. Right now, at least two of them are running amuck in the neighborhood. Yes, I'm sure you are jealous that you don't get to see one of these masterpieces when you go outside. What is that saying? "Beauty is in the eye of the beholder"? Well, this eye ain't seeing no beauty.

P.S. for you brave folk, click on the photo to get the full impact. You'll be glad you did. Maybe. Maybe not so much. Actually, you might not like me if you do. Never mind. Just stick with the small version and we'll let it go at that.
