These are for the birds...and some photography practice.
DAY 184 - July 2, 2010
Doug's been out looking for the stuff we needed to finish our hummingbird and butterfly garden. He found these hummingbird feeders and I absolutely love them. I love how bright they are and how pretty they are with the hand painted stuff on them. Doug and the boys hung the hooks on our fence today and put them up. Butterfly and hummingbird garden done...CHECK!
I've been really trying to learn some photography techniques. I'm taking an online class and follow a photography forum that I get a lot of great tips from. The boys were game for me to practice on them so we headed to this old barn that is close to our house. Here are some of my favorite shots from tonight.

Fireworks!
DAY 182 - June 30, 2010
The 4th of July is coming up...and the boys have been VERY excited to get some fireworks. They've been looking through the fliers that have come in the mail and looking up the name of each one on YouTube to see if they could see what it did when lit. Tonight we went out to get some stuff...here's what we got. Kaleb had to set it all out in a nice little display. We got much more than this...he just didn't display the duplicates of what we bought.

A different way to "eat out"
DAY 181 - June 29, 2010
It was such a beautiful night tonight that we decided to eat dinner out on the back deck. Kaden was very excited about this and helped me get the table set up. He even folded the napkins into triangles and put the silverware on them.

Bugs, slushies, and cupcakes.
DAY 180 - June 28, 2010
This is what happens when Lilly gets interested in a bug. She was barking and pouncing and sniffing at this little spec of a bug for about 5 minutes. It was so funny to watch...as if she'd never seen a bug before. In the end...she got brave and started licking the thing...of which she quickly ate. So much for that bug!
The boys and I stopped at Speedway today and each got a slushy. I haven't had one of these in quite a while...probably since last summer. I usually get one each summer and I usually good. The boys don't get them much either...just WAY too much sugar in them. But today, they sounded good...and they were!
Today was the City Celebration in Greenwood. Doug always has to work traffic control at the parade so we usually ride down with him and watch close to his assigned spot. The owners of a little bakery came through with these cute little cupcakes to try. They were really yummy. Of course, I had to try a creative little picture before we ate them. I really like the way the background is all blurry and full of color from the flowers across the street.

Keeping her busy...
DAY 176 - June 24, 2010
We got this GIANT bone for Lilly...and she absolutely loves it. We've had one before and it lasted her months. It works great for keeping her occupied which is just what we need sometimes. This one should last her quite a while...

First bike ride in a LONG time.
DAY 175 - July 23, 2010
Doug and the boys found a bike recently stuck in the patch of trees between our neighborhood and the next neighborhood over. We've check to see whether it's stolen and checked with the HOA to see if anyone has reported it. Those checks came up with nothing. So, now we have a bike. Tonight the boys and I went on a bike ride...here are Kaleb and I getting ready to go. Kaden is taking the picture as Doug is at work.
