Buh-Ah-Tuh

At our house we have entered the new world of reading! Mason is really enjoying reading and spelling new words. We are sounding out letters ALL the time!!


This past weekend we went out to see the Buh-Ah-Tuh-S (bats). It was lots of fun! If you get some time in the Austin area, it's worth hanging out at sundown to see the bats fly out. In the pics, the streams of black in the sky are the bats. Enjoy...

We got to the bridge in Round Rock a little too early and were sitting around awhile. We decided to take a quick family pic to document the night. While we were waiting we also read Mason's magazine Your Big Backyard. Did you know that a bat's wings are covered with a thin layer of skin? Bats can't fly as fast as birds, but they can use their wings to turn quickly.
