At Six Flags. We all played the same game. They all won those snakes and I lost (no snake for me).

The birds were going crazy around my house today. They were bunches of them flying and squawking everywhere. Here are 3 near the pool.

They were shaping their bodies like the letter 'S' and saying 'Are you serious?'.

They said it was something that Bryce made up...

We get a violation notice from the city every year or so. This time it was because our weeds were too long. One man's weed is another man's nature preserve :-)

I had our favorite plumber over today to replace my 19 year old water heater. It sprung a leak last night. Thanks Joe.

1st time making sugar cookies, and my first time using cookie cutters I thought it would be easier. I need more practice.

We found a baby bird on a low branch at the dog park, today. After moving it to a higher branch & then going home to research, the kids harvested seeds & berries from our yard & we went back to check on it. It was down on the ground, in even more danger. Eventually, it's mother came to check on it and we moved it to a high branch on a tree outside of the dog park.
