I wandered around with the camera this evening to take pics of all our happenings ...

First off my yearly skylight cover went up today - because it was toasty today - hotter tomorrow - so the summer has begun - its just an old table cloth I got in Australia when we had a small table - it really is the perfect size for our sky light ...

In the same vain to keep the house cooler without the a/c I also bought some cheap curtains for the kitchen - we still had a rod up waiting for a valance I've been meaning to make/buy...

We're growing butterflies - we ordered some painted lady caterpillars and I can't get a decent pic of them but they have gotten huge - I'll keep you updated as they grow...

We got rid of the jacuzzi. (Gave it to a friend of a friend) so now we are able to actually use our patio. we've had several dinners out there including tonight's. A guy came out to give us an estimate to fix up the concrete, but for now - here's our patio...

Oso had a bath today - with a hose and a giggling 5 year old. After dinner Jack Furminated him and here is the pile of fur a broken wrist man got off the dog.

FInally - our neighbors tree fell on our fence this weekend. Jack cut the branches off so now we have this at the fence line...

and this in a pile on the side of the yard..

Since you made it this far ... you deserve one of Megan - in costume. She and her partner made the tryouts and will be performing twice on Friday the 23rd - once in an assembly for the school and once for a friendship feast/multicultural night the PTC is putting on in the evening.
