Happy 7th...

Anniversary Babe!

I feel so blessed that God brought us together and love you with all my heart...Thank you for the 7 wonderful years together and may there be many many more....Love You!

Over the weekend...

Here's a few photos I took over the weekend...it was a busy busy weekend but I couldn't NOT take photos for a little bit!

We found this baby Scorpion in a pail in the well house, along with several Black widow spiders too, ugh!!

Our Pastures are still full of wildflowers...I'm waiting for them to go to seed so I can Shred.

Pretty blooms but this is one plant that Michael knows to stay away from...It HURTS! Bull Nettles!


Possibly a type of clover...pretty purple bloom.



Beebalm and others...




Texas stars and they are all over and gorgeous!



Okay so I really don't have one particular favorite wildflower...but then again I do...I love this one above...it's a sensitive plant and I absolutely adore the blooms...They remind me of fireworks. If you touch the leaves they close up and that has always fascinated me...I didn't use the tripod and need to go back and get some better photos with the tripod...just gorgeous!


Indian Blanket and others...


Michael spotted this one on a Bull Nettle....We have caterpillars all over the place...you can't help but step on them when you walk, ewww....guess they're making up for the drought the past couple of years!


Ooops...maybe this is my favorite wildflower, lol...He is kind of cute and he does put up with me stopping to take photos here and there, lol..."Oh Mom, NOT again"...sheesh!


I did some of this, this past weekend too, lol...How I love my Hammock! First time in 6 yrs I've been able to put it up...Nothing like a cool breeze, shade, good book and a Hammock!


Dad and Fred working hard....

Discussing the Bridge and how it looks!
I was actually trying to get a better photo of them but they weren't having anything to do with me and the camera, lol...After this photo they both turned their backs to me, ekk...Guess it was time to put the camera up and get back to work!
~
We were busy but it's nice to see things get accomplished and leaves you with a good feeling...I have some more photos to share and also some ideas for scrapbook layouts so stay tuned and hopefully I'll get to them soon!

On another note....Dad had to be the first one to drive a truck over the bridge, lol...He deserved the honor for all his help! Need to add a bit more dirt and then comes the concrete, Yea!
We'll actually be working down there on Mothers day but I don't mind, it's fantastic to see how much we've accomplished!

Heavy Fog and Dew Droplets

This morning we had a heavy fog. On the way home from taking Michael to school I noticed the spider webs were drenched with dew...too cool.



I spotted this caterpillar still a wee bit damp.

Yikes and I thought my house was messy! LOL...This spider needs to do some major cleaning...

Well off to see what Kit is chasing through the house, ekk...Just hope it's not a scary critter...adios!
