Saturday Visit

 Tyler, Jackson and Ashlynn visit on Saturday. First to the Hula Hut and back to the house for dessert.

Zilker Sunday Walk

We were able to catch some hints of early spring in Zilker Park with a few plants in bloom on a nice Sunday afternoon.

Ashlynn Ann Evans Arrival

The family gathers at Seton to celebrate the birth of Ashlynn Ann. Ali and the new arrival were doing great and boys we most interested in their sister.....

Jackson arrives for Christmas morning fun.....

Nearly a year ago on New Year's 2011, I posted a picture on Jackson coming in wearing his "Thomas" PJs and ready for action.  This Holiday he strolled in with his "Cars" fashion statement. So as not to miss the Spidey gloves I added the flash photo of his going into the front door.....another fun blast with the kids.

Shrimp plant in early December

A couple of pics of backyard plants facing a mid-December cold front ahead of the Holiday season.

Jackson David Evans Razor Scooter

This is a fun pic of Jackson as we were getting ready to have him return home after an overnight. Jackson doesn't just wait around. He spotted the scooter and began to zoom around the sidewalk and driveway. As he approaches three and a half years he has good coordination and athletic skills.

Bird Feeder in Early Fall

One more fungal find

Hard to believe this unlikely pair would pop up in the damp September woods. One day there was white domes pushing up through the rotting stump and the next a yellow twosome that look like whole grain cheese burger buns......all in the micro drama of the Michigan forest.

Cabin September 2011

Great days in the beautiful Lake Margarette shoreline setting. Days were in the mid 70's and nights in the lower 40's. A most welcome respite from the hottest Austin on record.

Fungal Family

In the hot early summer, with everything drying out, this fungal family found a way to push up in a moist shady area. This pic is just outside my office window here in Austin.
