4th of July fun

I walked into mom and dad's house and was greeted by the newest member of the family: a small, orange striped kitten named Teacup. Cinnamon rolls sat on the counter and mom and dad and Jenay were there to greet us. I was home for the 4th of July.

That kitten got so much attention that weekend. We played with it and even dressed it up in doll clothes. It was silly, but Jenay, Kendra, and I had a great time doing it. The kitten didn't seem to mind and even posed for us in his/her flowery doll dress. We are still unsure whether it is a girl or a boy.

Mom got the kitten when a kind farmer helped her out of a ditch. She couldn't refuse the kitten after his service to her. We teased mom that the farmer saw her coming. Teacup was a cute little ball of fur that pranced around the house.

We missed my brother-in-law, Sam Hennis, as he was away serving his country in the Air National Guard. We are proud of him.

Just wanted to post a few pictures of the 4th when we went to Boise. It was a lot of fun. We went hiking, shooting, shot off fireworks, ate, and chatted. Pictures below show Ty playing with mom's kitten, Marcia with her awesome sunglasses, and skeet shooting .
