Cooper's Hawk

It was such a beautiful evening that we had our back door open. Suddenly we heard a strange chirping from outside. Our first thought is that it was a squirrel mad at a cat or something like that.

Much to our surprise, it was a huge hawk sitting in our tree. I think that it was calling its mate in the neighbor's yard. Alex ran inside to get his bird book and we finally found it. It was a Cooper's Hawk. We got a few pictures of it before it flew away, it was so very cool!

Parker's turn

Parker was chosen to help with Rise and Shine in school with a girl from his class. He had to lead the Pledge of Allegiance, read the lunch menu, and say the word of the day. He did such a great job and we are so proud of him! Parker finally got to be the one on stage, instead of always watching big brother do it.

Happy Valentines

This was the treat I made the boys for Valentines day. It was so delicious, I will for sure be making this again!
