It's Too Hot for a Penguin!



For those of you who have seen the movie "Billy Madison" with Adam Sandler you might recognize the title of this posting as one of the lines from the movie (although I did modify it slightly). Mark and I have been saying this line a lot this summer, and today is no exception. Yuck! I don't know how anyone can acclimate to this hot, humid stuff. Good, reliable, (and unfortunately!) expensive air conditioning is the key I suppose.

Well, thanks to Bill who gave me a very helpful tutorial on editing a Blog the other night. I still don't have everything figured out (like inserting pictures the way I want them), but I'll figure it out.

The above is a picture of Mark with his pride and joy, Mingo. Mingo's little sister, Roxy, is growing quickly and fits in well with the female member of our family. Like Fanny and I, she is sometimes very loving, sometimes a little feisty, quite a bit outspoken, always hungry, and, of couse, sensitive and moody. Mingo and Roxy have quickly become inseparable buddies. They both enjoy chewing on the same toy, wrestling, sporadically chasing our cats for no apparent reason, going for walks and eating and sleeping.

Hi Aunt LuLu,

I like the pictures of Mingo and Roxy. They are too cute!! I like Mr. Briches and Ms. Fanny. Love you, from Kenny.

P.S. Mommy says it must be Bragg women, as Elizabeth is also "very loving, feisty, outspoken and moody" lately!! Hope
