Starting to get a bit clostriphobic walking to the garage.

Ugh. So tired of snow now!

February 8

A pic from 2/3/14...

I love this windmill in any season!

Although I do prefer Spring & Summer! ;)

February 2

Finally! A day of milder temps!

The boys went out and shot at pizza

boxes with their bb guns. Even 

Brad joined in! :)

January 3

Something you're supposed to do after a snowstorm?

Take a pic of your patio furniture! 

November 7

Another shot from this past Sunday.

Too pretty not to share! :)

November 6

 Before & After!

I mulched up the leaves today.

I love that tree, but you really don't realize how many leaves fall

from it. This was my 2nd time mulching and I might even have to do

it a third time! (I hope not! lol)

November 5

Another from this past Sunday. I don't know...I just like this one! :)

October 31

The tree that is just behind our fence is really showing it's beauty!

September 26

Reason # 673 why I need a macro lens for my camera!

(Imagine how awesome a close-up of this would've been!!)

September 7

A nice night for a fire!

August 27

I spend a lot of time in my back yard. haha

Today both frogs were in the pond.

Normally, one is out and the other is in. 

It really doesn't take much to thrill me! lol

July 27

Campfire night!

I'm glad I got the shot before the rain came,

and before my hands were too sticky from the s'mores!

July 19

Last year, a robin made this nest, but no baby birds.

So glad to see little ones this year! :)

July 18

I love Google. I now know that this is indeed a frog.

A "Pickerel Frog", to be exact. (I forget who told me it was a toad!!)

July 16

Today, my little neighbor-friend, Damon, helped me find good

sticks for fishing poles for my boy and girl at my pond. I've been

working on them (new paint job) for a long time. Today they are finally

done, and even our frog friend visited and gave his approval! :)

June 28

I think my froggy friend likes that I piled 

some rocks inside the pond for him to sit on. :)

June 4

Very discouraging.

Saw her this morning. Ugh.

June 2

Guess "Plan B" worked? We did catch something...

just not a groundhog. :( 

More progress! :)

Just a little more to be done. 

June 1

"Plan B"....we added fresh lettuce and apple slices......

May 31

The cicadas are here!
(That's my brave...or maybe crazy Uncle Leon holding it. Eeew!)

Traps were set last night, and so far, nothing! :(
