Update on Hank

As you saw last week on the blog, while we were locked up in the slammer, Mommy was gallivanting around with our canine cousin Hank.  She loves spending time with him.  She says there's something about his eyes that remind her of Hunter.  Hank loves spending time with Mommy too.

Hank also loves to spend time in the woods around his house sniffing out the wildlife.

Grandaddy built a bench a few years back from which to watch the grandchildren play.  Hank really enjoys watching life go by from this vantage point.  Maybe our Daddy will build us a throne too?  Of course, we'd need two . . . of equal height . . .

Mommy and Hank both seem to like sticking out their tongues.  That's a family trait by the way. Daddy and Cousin S tend to do that when they are concentrating.  Mommy and Hank usually reserve this for expressing their opinions about something.

Mommy probably won't see Hank again until this time next year. That's good news for us.  With luck, maybe she'll forget all about him.

Belated Birthday Greetings

We slipped up and forgot to wish someone in the family a special birthday a month ago!  We've been quite forgetful lately (Happy belated anniversary to Uncle W and Aunt C).

Our dear sweet cousin Hank turned ONE!  He's gone from this . . .

to this . . .

He's quite handsome, don't you think?  We personally like the way he perpetually looks like he's been standing in the mud.  That would come in handy when we've actually been standing in the mud!  Of course Mommy stops us from getting in mud that deep, but still . . .

We haven't heard any "good" Hank stories lately, so he must be pretty well settled in with my grandparents.  He does like to keep an eye and ear on the wildlife in the neighborhood and let them know who's boss of the area.  Good boy, Hank!

We knew you'd want to join us in wishing Hank a belated birthday too!  Happy Birthday, Hank!

Love,
Dixie and Jenna
