35mm Film

I don't know if everyone knows this, but Tommy received an award for Most Dedicated Photography Student in high school :) Kat gave him her vintage Nikon SLR and he has begun using his talents again! Here are the results:

Climbing

We have been doing quite a bit of outdoor climbing recently! Here are some pics:

Snuggles

Baxter is very snuggly!

The day I picked him up from the pound, he climbed on my back and fell asleep :)

He has a thing for chests :)

And shoulders...

Lazy Sunday afternoon

Nap time

He just loves to snuggle!

True Brothers

Here's an adorable video of Baxter trying to climb on top of Barley :) Barley is very sweet with him. He licks him like a mama dog would clean her puppies. They are true brothers :)

Baxter!

In May, we adopted our little kitten Baxter. He was 6 weeks old and weighed 1.5 lbs, and he was not afraid of our 80 lb Barley! :) He we very sick too! He had an upper respiratory infection, giardia, and something else... So he was sneezing and snotting everywhere and had a lot of trouble breathing. There was a time when the vet told us that we just have to get him to eat or he wouldn't make it... It was so sad to see such a small thing suffering! We did everything he could and eventually he started getting better :)

Apparently, when cats eat medicine that tastes horrible, their mouth foams! It was both sad and hilarious :)

He was so small! And Barley was very patient with him :)

When he was sick, we would steam up the bathroom for him to help him breath.

Brothers... spooning!

Phone pics

Em flashing the crux of clip, clip here5.9 at munckinland. It is a fun overhang.

Barley is a goofball.

Believe it or not, snow down to 3000 in Tucson; it looks beautiful, but that's not what we moved here for. I'm cold just looking at it.

Em's right to bear arms. Barley curls.

Barley's toy fell in the pool, out of his jurisdiction.

Poachers, goat cheese, tom slices, and tortillas. Think goat cheese pizza Napoleon with egg yolk oozing everywhere.

This is a swamp cooler aka evaporative cooler. Our house has dual cooling, which means we can use this thing in non-monsoon (humidity <10%) months to cool our house. It costs tons less to run than ac. Not being from the desert, we had no idea how to work this thing. It was one of our best shopping trips ever.

"A lot of people thing a cooler is easy to work, but it's more like a woman cause it needs lots of stuff but it's not gonna tell you what it needs: you just gotta pay attention to what it wants," the guy at the cooler store.
