Week 9

I have not killed everything in my garden!

Not everything has made it though…

I have tried gardening in the past and usually give up in the hot months.

My goal this year is actually make it to fall!

I am still doing a nightly photo project.

Lots of plant watching going on. They made a cable car for Super Charged Science! They modified it a bit to balance better and hold passengers.

Sometimes the boys sneak out when I go outside at night…

I finished this girls hair also!

After several hours of work we finished and she promptly went outside to do gymnastics…

I was hoping she would just want to sit and enjoy her hair for a bit.

Guess not.

Deep Fork Wildlife Refuge ~Okmulgee, Ok

We got out on a hike a little bit ago on one of my favorite spots in our area. Deep Fork National Wildlife Refuge. I love the boardwalk trail, so pretty. And the whole walk smelled like honeysuckle this time! We are pretty loud so we usually scare the animals away before we see them. We drove a bit more and went to on the Railroad Trail also, it is such a pretty trail. It is another easy walk. I grabbed Little Bit right before she stepped on this guy. We think he was either a water snake or a cottonmouth. Of course all four of my other kids walked right by him without seeing him… The twins decided to stick a bit closer after that. I don’t know if you can tell but in the above pic we were getting rained on.

It did not last long though.

There were a lot of tadpoles in this puddle by the entrance!

It was a beautiful day!

 

Week 8

I am behind a week.

I am feeling like the weeks all look the same right now and sometimes that makes it harder to document them.

This week was different at least in that it was our youngest birthday which I did a blog post about.

I have been going out every evening and taking a pic which has been nice. Sometimes I am spied on… Sometimes I wish I still took clients because this light is so beautiful.

It is begging for a photo shoot.

Thankfully Milo puts up with my need for a photo shoot.  I took this shot the day before her birthday.

I have had this tradition for many years now.

She is a character. Lots of “pets” are outside right now.

She said she was swimming in the flowers 😉

Do you feel like the days are blending together?

It helps me notice other things that change like new flowers and longer days so I guess that is a good thing.

Things have started opening back up around here but it all feels different still.

Maybe that is just how it will be from now on.
