Jeff and his baby

God only knows why the kitten did this, but one afternoon she started to lick Jeff's head after he got a hair cut. Maybe she thought he was another cat? 

Our roses

Here are our first roses blooming in our front yard. One plant is actually bright pink and the other is a very intense orange. They are also very fragrant! This is our first time with roses and they seem to be doing well here. 

Our cats are bullying the neighbor's dog

Notice our cute little kitten sitting in the flowers, and see the dog through the slats of the fence? Yes its a little hard to see, but the dog was moving around a lot so it was hard to get a good shot. The cat is actually taunting the dog. She even stands up and bats the dog on the nose with her little paws.

We think both cats enjoy teasing this poor dog. As soon as they hear him bark in his backyard, they will run to the fence if they are outside or meow to him through the sliding door in the living room. The dog, of course, goes nuts barking and his people make him go inside. 

Jeff's first day at work

Here is our fearless soldier ready to deploy on his first day of office duty..... 

Jeff's new job

Jeff is doing great in his new job. He is excited to go to work everyday and has so many things to get done yesterday. The men and women working with him in the immersion program are very proud of everything they've done and can't wait to get the program up and running. Their target opening date is July 1st. I think they'll get it done.
