the boys July 2015

I've been trying to make a point of taking photos of Hobbes while he's still really little because I know that these days will be over before we know it. I take a lot of random snaps with my cell phone, but I like to capture kitty moments with my DSLR, too.







 
Hobbes is crazy about these little Mylar balls.

Of course when I have the camera out, I like to take pictures of Ares and Apollo as well.

summer at the Milwaukee County Zoo

It wouldn't be a summer in Milwaukee without a few trips to the zoo.















What are some of your quintessential summer activities?

Bethany's 30th birthday, featuring Catbird

As part of this year's July family birthday celebrations (I have three family members with birthdays in early July), I was able to take a brief trip to Chicago to attend a birthday party for my brother's wife Bethany and spend a little time with my parents. I love Rob and Bethany's friends and was so glad to be part of this event.
 




Part of the birthday celebration included the first ever performance by Catbird. Hopefully there will be future performances!



 








Have you been celebrating any birthdays this month?

Saturday is Caturday

Are you ready for your weekend dose of cute?







 




I know that it looks like Ares is going after the cat food, but he actually just wanted to look out the window in the pantry.

All on his own, and no, it doesn't last long.
