Hello!

Really wet and Really Humid here but we are high and dry when it comes to flooding, thank goodness. Watching the news in regard to all the flooding is really sad and I am continuously praying for the people affected by the flooding. 
I've been kind of chilling out and still trying to get things unpacked, cleaned up, organized and deciding what we actually need and what can go...I have another box for good will and made another trip to the dump with a load in the pick up truck. 
We have decided to have a party in honor of my Mother, kind of a wake to celebrate her life and to show the house to our friends and family. Mom was so looking forward to the house being done and the party. I so wish she could be here. I have one month to get everything ship shape, ekk...I am on brain overload at the moment. 
I really, honestly haven't felt like picking up the camera. It's a shame because with all this rain there are so many wildflowers and everything is green and there are a whole lot of bugs! Lots of bugs!! The other evening I stepped outside and saw this bird and thought what is that?? So I grabbed the camera and tripod and went out to take photos. 


A bird species I hadn't seen before...Lesser Goldfinch! 
 There is a flock that flies in every evening to eat the seeds off the common sunflowers.


 Beautiful little birds and they are rather noisy too!

 Wow and even some late blooming Indian blankets!!


The moon was kind of pretty too!



I hope everyone is high and dry and enjoying the beautiful spring/summer weather!!
Michael has 1.5 days of school left until summer break and we are so looking forward to the break!!!
