Sunset at Lauer Ranch

Hey! Sooooo, ummmmm, I've been really busy? Is that a good enough excuse? No? OK, well, then you'll just have to accept that Nora has done nothing cute. Not a thing. Except this.

Also, we finally had some time together tonight and just lounged in the backyard for about twenty minutes. It felt alarmingly decadent to just do...nothing. The pictures are below. Please observe- Nora is now running:



For those of you who notice such things, Monkey is being played tonight by a tannish, floppy leonine creature named Lion. There was an Incident with Monkey of which the less said the better- he's in the wash. Bizarro Monkey (the one with the moustache) is at daycare. Hence, the unthinkable that we tried to avoid at all costs has occured. And it was totally not that bad. Nora barely noticed.
