Daily Picture - Stop!

The deconstruction is completed and construction underway. We're kinda wishing we had our emails of these little cats all the time!

Daily Picture - Mountain Climbing

Instead of a swim lane we are now attempting to build a mountain of gravel. Natalie will be able to leverage this for her 6th grade science project. Volcanic eruption anyone?

Daily Picture - Swim Lane

Natalie loved swim team so much we decided to add a water feature to the back yard.

Daily Picture - Deck Demise

Today the crappy deck comes down! No more splinters. And we can spray the mosquito incubation area under it!

Daily Picture - Another Rainy Day

We were trying to find a way to get a picture through a window and took several at home but those were lousy. I told her I wanted to take a shot of her outside the car window but she was appalled that she might have to stand near the car after she got out. She moved too far from the car for the picture to capture her so I rolled down the window and told he, maybe in a bit of a stern voice, to get closer! So she took one step towards me and this is what I got. Was a little frustrated with her. How hard is it?

But then I looked at the picture and realized it captures a feeling I have had with her for awhile now. When I look at it (her) I know who it is (know it's her) but I feel that it's a bit fuzzy (how does she really feel) and out of focus (I don't get her). So I guess it was a perfect Picture for this rainy, melancholy day.

Daily Picture - Picture Day

Too hard to get a good picture since she was worried about a math quiz this morning!

Daily Picture - Tummy Ache

Pretty withdrawn this morning so didn't press my luck on our theme today. She had a bit of a stomach ache, didn't eat much breakfast, and had to redo most of her math homework this morning.

Daily Picture - Worm Hunter

It was raining this morning so relegated to garage. And the title company. Estate from the fact that she might have had to hide near my worm composter and the "escapees" were taunting her! You can't hear the "gross gross gross"!

Daily Picture - Trash Day

This is for the kids! Where's Natalie? A week of hide and seek. Best part of today was getting her to hide in our trash!
