Happy Memorial Day

We have so much to be grateful for.

I celebrated Memorial Day in the most fitting way….working, then coming home to my sweet little family. 

Seriously, what more could one girl ask for?  My cup runneth over.  Its okay that 1/2 of us are not human.  Minor detail.  We are all healthy and happy and together -- enjoying so much more than we deserve.

There was a standoff tonight in the bedroom.  Oscar vs. the vacuum cleaner, round # 560879.

   

And another altercation out in the yard:

Oscar loves to chase our neighbor, Jimmy, on his lawn mower.  Jimmy loves to race him up and down the fence.

   

Happy Memorial Day! 

Telephoto Morning

This morning I re-discovered the telephoto lens that came with my camera.  I’ve tried to use this lens once or twice before, but gave up because the pictures came out blurry and terrible. I assumed I would need a tripod.  For some reason this morning I decided to try it again and it all came together. I stood on the patio and took a close-up picture of a pinecone way out in the yard.  I was amazed! Then I took a picture of a bird, some clover, a leaf on top of the fire pit.  I took a close-up of Milly from across the yard,  then a picture of the clock in my neighbor’s living room. Yes, I realize that is super creepy.  I frantically dropped Brent off at work and then euphorically drove all over town taking pictures with the telephoto lens.  Like an absolute lunatic.  There is obviously something so very wrong with my mind.
