Day 181

Here's Natalie before her latest belt test.  She's now a green belt and qualified to start sparring.  Yikes!!  That scares me.  Really, it does.

Day 180

I bet the animals get these before I ever get a taste on a walk.

Day 179

The grandkids spent the night.  They wanted to have a "camp out" with Aunt Abby in the family room.  This is how I found them the next morning.  Pretty darn cute.

Day 178

Natalie is very happy to be back in the pool again.

Day 177

How does God make all the flowers so beautiful, yet all so different?

Day 176

I saw these two on my walk yesterday.

Day 175

Look who finally got to go in the pool.  I didn't think it was ever going to warm up for them.

Day 174

This is the moon last night.  Tonight, I am going to find a place where I can see it without trees.  I am not taking pictures of an obstructed super moon.

Day 173

It's my favorite bad quality, perfect content picture!

Aunt Abby came home from her trip to Boston (safe and sound) and brought the kids awesome Boston Strong t shirts.  I even got one too.  We were all so happy to see her!

Day 172

Abby and Myles at a Michigan rest area last weekend on our way to a wedding.  Not sure if that's me or Dick in Myles sunglasses.

Day 171

From one bloom to this!

Day 170

They had some beautiful bushes at a rest stop in Michigan.

Day 169

The boy loves his jeep!

Day 168

Some of our best friends ever!!

Day 167

These were looking mildly impressive and then they fizzled.

Day 166

21 weeks!  Just over the halfway hump.

Day 165

And now it's time for the clematis to take it's turn to bloom.

Day 164

When I first glanced at this on the tree, I thought it was a bird.  On closer examination, I think it's a mushroom.  Since when do mushrooms grow on trees?

Day 163

We are having an early morning yoga class for the summer.  Yesterday, it was at the beach and it was awesome.  I can't wait to go back on Thursday.  It was so relaxing and peaceful and we were the only people there.

Day 162

I love this boy!

He's in the bed of poppa's truck with the cap down saying he's going golfing with poppa to drive the cart.  He's too funny!

Day 161

Me after my Foxy Virtual 5k!

Day 160

I love these.  Does anybody know what they are? 

I should probably know being they are in my front yard.

Day 159

I love gerbera daisies, so lucky for me, I got several from some of my kids at school.

Day 158

Look at these fat boys in dad's birdbath in the memorial garden at school on Wednesday.

Day 157

How cool is this?

Somebody drew this with their finger in the upholstery of a couch at school.  We found it yesterday morning.  No idea who did it, but if you look at the second picture, they wanted to be sure we saw it.

Day 156

I found these pretty poppies in the round about on the way to a friend's house yesterday.  I had to make quite a few trips around the round about before I could get a shot.  Way too many cars around.

Day 155

 I really need to pay more attention to the front yard. 

I almost missed these.



Day 154

 Look what's finally blooming.



Day 153

Just playing with the macro lense.

Day 152

There were some pretty amazing looking clouds last night.
