A Little Summer Fun

For a couple of weeks we had a quiet visitor on our patio.  He'd just show up, hang out a bit and then slowly go about his business.  The kids were a bit apprehensive but enjoyed looking at him.  E did some research (as only a professor would) and decided he was a pondslider turtle.  It's been a bout two weeks now since we last saw him.  I believe the heat wave we went through has something to do with that. 

Apparently my son is a bit camera shy. Every time I came with camera, he ducked or ran away... boys.  I've also discovered what my daughters' favorite shirts are.
