I snapped a few pictures of a Gold-fronted Woodpecker that was visiting our feeder for a little snack. It certainly stood out in contrast to the cool tones of the front yard today. The male woodpecker has the red and orange spots on his head, while the female only has a peachy-yellow patch on the back of her head. These are fun birds to watch. Have you ever seen one?

Atlanta and Jordan stayed an extra day so that we could go to Caprock Canyons State Park near Quitaque. Atlanta really wanted to show it to Jordan and the kids. Sadly, Aspen, Carolina and Nathan were too sick to go, but our small group had a lot of fun anyway. The wind was really blowing, but once we dropped off in the canyon, we hardly noticed it at all. We drove around checking out the prairie dogs and buffalo, then found a place to picnic before going on a hike down the valley.

Sunny and Jim hosted a special supper in Lubbock in honor of the Goodwin visit. Their new house is the perfect place to host a large group. The meal was yummy hamburgers with all the fixin’s.

With the Goodwin’s in town, we all attended church in Crosbyton because Laredo was preaching there that Sunday. They served lunch as well. It was fun and Laredo did a great job.

We had fun playing with the kids in the front yard and the back yard.
The funnest thing to do in the front yard is ride in the wagon.
Coconut always has to jump in. She really loves the wagon.
In the backyard is a playhouse among other things. Here we are having a tea party in front of it.
Steel is the uninvited guest.
Marian is red riding hood.
Steel is the wolf, but he doesn’t look too ferocious.
Looks like Robin Hood has come by for refreshments.
Little John is thirsty, too.
