Solitary rose out in the back yard.

Happy Mother's Day!

Day 131
Picked this cute guy up when we were in Maine one summer. Now he lives on the front porch.
-
Day 132
Oh, Ted. Why don't I ever get tired of that face?
-
Day 133
Oops, overexposed. And yet, I love it!
-
Day 134
Ok so now I'm realizing that this shot is basically the opposite of yesterday's. But these shriveled sweet peas were still interesting to me.
-
Day 135
This is what happens when I tell her to just not look at me at all. :)
-

Well, three out of four ain't bad.

Day 137
Love these sweet pink flowers growing outside my neighbor's house!

More horse stuff (mom used to ride competitively). This is a painting of one of her babies, Wesam, that hangs in the front hall, by Susan Dorazio.
-
Day 139
Little man stood still just long enough for me to take this! :)
-
Day 140
In the middle of rolling over, Puss paused to give me this look. I think it means "I'm ready for my closeup".
-
Day 141
What I pulled out of poor Dante's butt at 1 a.m.! I let him out to go potty and heard rustling in the bushes (probably a possum), so of course he dashed off after it, barking, and then I heard shrieking.
Poor pup had gotten part of the new cactus my parents planted attached to his butt! Luckily I turned the light on to see what it was before pulling it out, otherwise we would've both been hurting! So I spent the better part of an hour baiting him with enough treats so he'd let me pull all the little spikes out of him and put Neosporin all over! -
Day 142
My mom, having gone straight from her car to the garden after work.
-
Day 143
*twitch* Waiting to attack...
-

Hooray for the Cheese! :) And on a Sunday night when you don't have to get up in the morning? Perfection.

Happy Memorial Day! And hooray for awesome bargain wedges from Old Navy. :)

Day 146
Found this adorable little half of an eggshell under a tree in front of the house around the corner.

I made dinner! This is before it went in the oven - chicken marinated in a mix of different salad dressings, BBQ sauce and spices.
-
Day 148
HA! I finally caught Dante's kisses in action! :)
-
Day 149
Wee birdie that dad rescued from Puss' clutches!

Comfort food, since I had such a bad migraine all weekend I needed something quiet! Delish scrambled eggs with chives from the garden over bread from the Farmer's Market.
-
Day 151
Oh yes, he's vicious. :) Baby possum that managed to sneak in the house! Lucky Ted found him before he got very far.

Yup, I think we're going to have enough tomatoes this year.

This gigantic succulent deserved more than just one shot!
-
Day 154
More succulents...except this one is teensy.

Day 155
Rawr! Sprocket hated his new carrier (he managed to break the old one). Turns out the silica gel packet was still in it...good one, guys.

Self portrait time! Please excuse my flyaways. And don't ask me how I got my eye in focus at f/1.8...I really couldn't tell you.

While at my alma mater's 75th anniversary celebration, I just fell in love with these walls of photos they had done (surprise). :)

Day 181
Had to get a shot of my neighbor's giant tree when these gorgeous purple blooms exploded!

Oh Ted E. You are so cute when you try to run up the driveway!
