Some noteworthy photos

Since Josh can now ride his bike without training wheels (thanks in part to Uncle Scott!)

we treated ourselves to a chocolate dipped cone and french fries. 

And ate both at the same time.

While I was outside trimming our way overgrown trees this afternoon, 

I stumbled upon this beautiful nest. 

I realized soon after finding it that the piece of dirt, or maybe the old dog poop,

 that I was avoiding with my feet, wasn't dirt or poop at all 

but was in fact, a decomposing baby bird. 

It made me sad and the nest....not so wonderful.

This is what happens when Trevor comes home from work. 

I follow him into our bedroom where we "chill out" for a few minutes

and I completely disregard whatever it was I was doing before. 

In this case, it happened to be baking cookies. 

Not to worry, this was the last batch. 

Thank goodness.
