They're BAAACCCKKK

Our visiting bees came back again. This time they invaded this tiny tree and made his branch sag right over. We called the "bee guy" but by the time he got here they were gone......

A Little Time Away

Where have I been you ask? Well let me tell you......

Two weeks ago I decided to hop on a plane and fly to California to spend some time with this guy.

He picked me up at the airport and we hopped into this little truck.

The first couple days we had to actually "work" but then we rented a car and drove around California for the next three days.

We drove up to San Francisco and I got to see my first trolly car. All that kept going through my head was:

"Rice-a-roni....the San Francisco treat"

As you can tell, this was the first trip to California for this sheltered Wisconsin girl.

Of course we had to go across the bridge. It sure is hard to take a good picture of it when you are actually on it!

We headed north on this extremely small and winding road. It actually made us both a little car sick from the constant curves.

But it was all worth it because it lead us to these. If you ever get to northern California you MUST go see the Redwoods.

They were awesome and we didn't even see the really huge ones.

And of course you can't go to California without stopping at one of these.

I have so many more pictures to share and I will show you more as the week goes on.

MMMMM Half-n-half.....It's So Good

Having Fun and Missing Blogland

This past week I've been missing here in blogland. I had some posts scheduled and have been able to read your comments but haven't been able to visit all of you like I want to. I'm off spending time with Brian. I will post some pics next week and fill you all in on the fun things we are doing. I miss you and will be back soon.

Rockin' Out to Third Day

Felicity loves to dance but she usually stops when I try to film her. 

This time I got her.....

Front Porch Sittin'

I'd like to introduce you to our front porch. In the short summer that we get here in Wisconsin this is where we spend all our free time. We start our day with coffee out here in the morning and many times end the day here with friends and family.

It's one of my favorite places in the world. 

People beep and wave all the time when they see us sittin' here. We don't usually know who they are but that doesn't matter. That's what folks do around here.

Sometimes I wonder if they think that's ALL we do......

'Cause where I come from

It's cornbread and chicken

Where I come from a lotta front porch sittin'

Where I come from tryin' to make a livin'

Workin' hard to get to heaven

Where I come from....

Teeth, Toes, and Thighs

Friday night little Jack-man got to spend the night while his Daddy and Mommy went to spend some time together. He is the sweetest little guy ever. He got two teeth on July 4th at four months old! After many unsuccessful attempts, I finally got a picture of those two little razor sharp chompers.

I love the little dimples in his hands.

And of course baby feet are totally adorable.

I had to take his pajama pants off and show you his little legs. 

I bet you just want to squeeze them. 

We had so much fun in our short 45 minutes before he fell sound asleep in his swing.
