Colorado Bend State Park

Crazy us went camping in July! It was hot. We hiked through cactus and cedar brush to reach this pretty waterfall in this lush setting.
Hanging like monkeys.

Posing on a cedar bench.
Look close. Nate had to climb to the top to see the "waterfall."
Quincy and Nate pause on the path.
The boys reluctantly pose in front of one of the gardens. They had the sun in their eyes. They were not happy this day as we went to the Austin Wine Festival after we left the gardens.

Quincy's Birthday

Quincy blows out all seven of his candles on his speed racer cake! (I do feed him.)

School Reading Awards

Shane's block leave was during the last week of school. The boys missed the big award ceremony (Quincy won an award for his grade in reading) but they were here for the school reading program awards.
Win recieves his award while I give him his medal.
Nate helps to cheer on the PreK students.
Quincy gets his award while I give him his medal.
