niece & nephew...and puppies

Did you know that Carly and I have a neice and a nephew? You may be wondering "how?" since Kyle is the first to be married of the children on the Loyd/Walters' side, and Carly's sister has no kids. And you may be quick to blame their existence on Caleb F Walters, but you would be wrong. Actually, they are of no relation to us other than that of love! And how wonderful they are. To Hud & Han, we are "Aunt Cawly" and "Uncah Kyuh". Really, there is no other reason for this little post than to show how wonderful their little mugs are! Just wanted you to enjoy them with us. These pics were taken at a recent excursion to the Oklahoma City Zoo with their parents, Papaw, and Grandma Doris. Don't you just feel like smiling now! They belong to our wonderful friends Rusty & Lesli. They bring us so much joy!





Oh, and if you didn't know, our son Parker is soon to be a dad (like any day now). While we were on our honeymoon, he had one of his own with the neighbor's German Shepherd "Belle". Oh brother. So I did a Google Image Search for "German Shepherd and Yellow Lab Mix"; some were cute and others were way ugly, but most of the pictures you get for dogs online are the ones that different animal shelters have found. So you can imagine most looked scared, dirty, and malnourished. We'll see what happens! If you want a puppy, call us! We'll share some pictures when they come. Makes me want to read the book MARLY AND ME about the so-called "worst dog (yellow lab) ever." Bad dog!
