Pepper

Our family grew by one more this summer.  Pepper is a mini-lop picked and named by Sydney, begged for for over a year.  She is part pet, part classroom bunny.

After a month of having her this is what we know...

• She is litter trained and only uses her litter box.
• When we got her she was a boy but the vet informed us that she really is a girl.
• She loves the classroom and hops around all day while the kids are there.
• The dog desires nothing more than to play with Pepper.
• She has allergies.

Visit with friends

While Eric was in Germany, the kids and I made a quick trip to Dallas/Fort Worth to visit with old friends.

Getting all the kiddos together for a photo did not go as well as we hoped.

The lake was perfect on this hot July day.

Scott was all about his favorite nature activity--climbing rocks!
