The Curious Georges

Pirate Portraits

Q:  How many shots does it take to get a good photo of a family of five?
A:  We'll let you know when we find out, but we know it's A LOT!

Cute, but where's Dane?

Now the boys aren't smiling.  Sigh ...

All of our little Swashbucklers had a wonderful Halloween.  The boys went trick-or-treating for the first time and stayed up late ... 9pm.  We're trying to wrap our heads around whether this is a good or bad thing for the time change.  I think even Barton suffers from Mommy Brain.

Sunday

It's a balmy 78 degrees in Austin right now and we're loving the mild weather.

Butterflies & Buzz Cuts

Haircuts are so traumatic for our Boy Georges that we decided to give them military haircuts in an effort to reduce the frequency of these painful events.  I can't say I love the results, but luckily (and unluckily), hair grows fast (especially the hair of these little mop-heads).

 

In an earlier post, I was commenting on the abundance of flora and fauna in Austin.  Spotting raccoons and deer is wonderful, but discovering that I was sharing the shower yesterday with a tiny scorpion was not so wonderful.  We live right on a greenbelt so since humans have usurped their land, various not-so-welcome critters often feel they have the right to invade our homes.  What's fair is fair I guess.

On a more aesthetically pleasing note, I caught a shot of this butterfly today.   As for the weather, it was only in the 90's today, which is pleasingly cool for Austin.
