Although Dale can run much better than I can, he took his time today and stayed at my pace at the Trot for Troops. We did a modified run-walk, and I did have my best 5K time to date and as you can see, Kitchen Pass Charters was even a sponsor.
We also attended Family Day at the base, and somebody took some time to make some special cookies. These, and some pretty nifty helicopters.

Such attention and focus! When it comes to her ball, Trinka hardly takes her eye off of it when it's being thrown. And she's a pretty good catch too!

I really think that baby looks big enough to feed itself, but apparently a mother's work is never done.

I actually get kind of attached to my flowers - I spend a lot of time picking them out and finding the perfect place in my gardens to plant them. This spring, I waited and waited, and my favorite hibiscus still wasn't sprouting. This hibiscus got huge every year, and the flowers that bloomed were the size of plates. It was the backdrop for a bunch of Kayla's maternity photos when she was pregnant with Josephine, and I was very sad that it looked like it didn't make it through last summer's drought. I was happy and surprised when I finally saw some buds, and now, with the growing season almost over, it's finally blooming. It's no where what it was, but it is.

These little guys are alsoproducts of the sunflowers I feed the birds in the front yard feeder. They are nothing like the sunflower in the back yard, although the seeds come from the same bag. Interesting stuff...

This little guy was sitting on the end of the pier when we took a walk by the boat this afternoon. He was pretty sassy...putting his leg down every time I took a couple steps toward him, and then picking it back up when I'd squat for a few more shots. I've done some online research but I haven't been able to identify him yet. Any ideas?

I'm always amazed at what things look like close up...the inside of my new hibiscus is no exception.
