An Owl, A Birthday, and A Fort

A few weeks ago, this barn owl flew right in front of me while I was going down the road close to where we live. He flew up and sat in this tree. Of course, I had to stop and take a picture! I had never seen one outside of the zoo (only heard them up in these trees).



Taylor celebrated his 16th birthday last Sunday. We took him to eat at the NEW Olive Garden and then headed home to eat the birthday cake that he picked out.

Then a few days later, this is where he went!

And yes, he did get his license!

Now on to the unfinished fort. Brian took off work several days to be with the boys while they are on Spring Break and he and Thomas did manage to get some more work done.

Thomas painting the walls before they go up and then he is going to add more paint to make them camouflage.
