Hello from the Wichita Shooks

It was March when we last wrote so thought I would share a few pictures of the rest of the year.

We did lots of walking at Great Plains nature center.  Enjoyed looking for wildlife and especially the owls in the dead tree.

In July, Tim had shoulder replacement surgery.  It went well and he continues to do his exercises to increase mobility.  In August, Vicki went to Chicago and watched Theo for a week while Andrew and Katie went to a wedding in the Azores.

We went to the Botanical garden and saw the train garden.  Played in the back yard with the water table and made chocolate chip cookies among other things

!

Erik continues to enjoy Alaska.  He and Jessica do lots of exploring.

We visited Hannah and James in September

In October, Tim, Samuel and I went to Minnesota since we couldn't go in the summer. The leaves were really pretty.  We played croquet before the snow.  The guys were excited that there was snow.  It was pretty and best of all, it melted by days end:)  We also visited the international wolf center.

Samuel and I made green tomato salsa that turned out quite tasty.

Received this picture of Theo in his Halloween costume.  They had a cold snowy night so they went to 2 houses.  

Best wishes to all of you!

Love Vicki, Tim and Samuel
