We took some trips to visit with friends and family; One of the trips was to Coventry, CT, where cousins Bonnie & Mark have a lakefront home, and we took the boys up for a few days. Unfortunately, Bonnie & Mark were not there, as her mother was very ill and passed away, and they had to fly down to Florida to be with her. It was bittersweet to be at such a great place on the lake, but not have them there with us.
However, we kept the boys busy with swimming, fishing and boating and I think they had a good time:

We headed back to Texas for a few weeks before we move - it was like living in a sauna for the first week. August is NOT the time to visit!
We rearranged our artwork in the living room:

During one night, I clocked TZ in the eye with my elbow, when we both turned over at the same time in bed:

| Gotta keep him in line....... |
TZ had a new project: he changed the flags to hang from a solar lit flagpole, instead of from the building; Had to sink the 10 gauge telescoping pole in concrete - came out great:
Another project:
TZ hung his collection of branding irons:
