Isn't this owl adorable? And just look at
the cute little crab peeking out from behind

easy to color too. I decided to color mine
aqua to match my designer paper.

On a personal note
Today is a wonderful and Patriotic Day to
celebrate our Independence here in the United States.
There are a lot of BBQ'S, Pool Party's, Parades and Fire Works.
Both of my grandsons went to the
local town Carnival last night. My two year old grandson,
Jacob, went on a couple of rides for the first time and enjoyed
dancing to the music from the live band playing on the town common. My other grandson, Luke, is only 8 weeks old and he
slept through the whole event. ;-)
Its raining right now, but it will hopefully clear up
later this afternoon.
