A few photos from this evening...

~

 

 I took Jenny down to the property and let her run around for a bit. I was a bit worried she wouldn't come when I called but she did, thank goodness. I'd sure hate to have her run off on me. She's settling down after only being with us a couple of weeks. This past week I worked with her on "Down", which is laying down and she knows it well now. Obedience classes start soon, I can't wait!

 

 

 The passion plant is blooming again, one of Fred's favorites.

 

 

Mandavilla (sp.) has been blooming all summer but the grasshoppers love the blooms, sigh!

 

Hope y'all have a great week!

 

 

 

 



40 days of Prayer for the USA...

 

 

God is on the throne, place your trust in the work of God...

 

 

This morning I watched this video and it sure made sense to me...

The sunset was this evening...








Tonights photos...

The Bully was back at the hummingbird feeder at the pool...

 

 and he thought he was king of the feeder...

 

 But then this full grown male rubythroat showed up and the Bully didn't stand a chance!

 

 

 He was not putting up with anything...

 Then we saw this fawn, who's spots are almost gone, playing on the dirt piles left from the pipeline construction...

 

 

 He didn't appreciate us watching him play so he went over to the brush and stood...ready to run if needed...

 

 

Uh Oh...Mom came to see what the problem was...I think Michael and I are in trouble!!

 

 

It was hot and dry again today...our thermometer here at the house (in the shade) said 100 degrees F...The pool sure felt good this evening!!

 

 

 

 

 

 



My day in photos!

This morning I had a "to do" list but got side-tracked watching the deer here at the house...

 

 I always manage to catch the does chewing...I always laugh as it looks as though she is talking.

 

 

 Beautiful doe eyed...

 

 

 Lydia is mad at me, can you tell?

 

 

 And this is why Lydia is mad! Yes we have a new pup and the new pup likes kitties!! I'm hoping with some work I can get Ms. Jenny to leave the cats alone, we have good days and bad.

 

 

 Possibly a Bordered Patch butterfly.

 

 

 They are fluttering all over at the property right now too...so pretty!

 

 

 Mr. Beetle lost his horn, ekk...I wonder if the girls will still like him?

 

 

 Michael was on a bug collecting mission this evening. He would then studying what he caught and take notes. Not sure what brought this on but I like it.

 

 

 Like to see my son take an interest in nature...

 

 

 I  hung a hummingbird feeder down near the pool and this little guy is a bully! He runs off all the other hummers, the little brat!

 

 

 I had to use the flash this evening as it was getting to dark not too...

 

 

Love lying in the pool and watching the hummingbirds!

 

 

Hope y'all had a good day!!

 

 

 

 

 

 



4th grade here he comes...

 

 

 He's ready...

 

 

 Come on MOM, lets GO!!

 

 

 Still smiling!!

He honestly didn't want to go to school and we had some cuddle (don't tell him I told you) time this morning and talked about it...He didn't want to go but he did and with a smile on his face!

 

 

 That time of year the buses are out and about!

 

 

Good Morning Sunshine!!

Gonna be a beautiful day!!

 

 

 

 

 



A couple photos from my day...

 

 

 I walked outside first thing this morning and spotted this rainbow in the clouds, gorgeous!!

 

 

 

And this evening I captured a photo of one of the many fawns roaming around here...They're growing up and losing their spots...

Tomorrow Michael starts 4th grade, is he nervous? Nope not one bit, actually he has been telling me all day he is NOT ready for school to begin, sigh! I told him I totally understand but we don't have a choice in the matter so we might as well go and get this year over with so he can move on to 5th grade! Here's hoping he has a good year!
