Happy Birthday Kelly!!

Birthday weekend for Kelly.  She turned __ today!  Friday dinner went for sushi.  Saturday dinner with her family at Samui Thai.  Breakfast at our regular brunch restaurant, Lil' Gus' both days.  Cousins Blake and Morgan spent the weekend with us one after the other and were very excited with Shiloh.  The goose was a bit jealous because the girls were trying to hoard the little dog.  I kept telling her that they're just excited because they don't have one.  Besides, she gets to see him everyday when her cousins will only see Shiloh when they come over.
Kelly wanted a sink for her birthday so we got her a stainless one to replace the white cast iron sink we've had for the last few years.

and after..

Fallen Mango Tree

This past week, tropical storm Basyang went though the Philippines bringing strong winds and a lot of rain.  Our mango tree which was planted roughly twenty years ago was uprooted.  I remember when it was planted.  When it fell, it was close to 40 feet in height.  Thank goodness it fell away and towards the fence.  The size of it could have easily damaged the main part of the house if it fell the other way. It will be missed.

Goose went to camp!

Katharine went to camp a month ago for a week.  Found these pictures in my Blackberry.  Sky Ranch is in Van, TX.  First time we had to decorate the car for this.  If you do, you get a cookie basket or something.  Camp is 1 hour and 45 minutes away so part of the afternoon was spent driving.

Catch-up

New member of the family - Shiloh or Bean. The goose decided on the latter but I happen to like Shiloh better.  The dog is a Toy Fox Terrier and is about 10 weeks old.  Quite fun.  "One thing dog, I am the alpha male! Got it?"
