Frogs

There are so many frogs out here. We filled up a pool and starting getting frogs for the girls. Natasha would pick them up out of the pool but wasn't quite up for out of the grass. She can no catch the frogs from the grass, and Ashley will pick them up (though not delicately). For a couple of days the girls were totally fasinated but now...its just frogs.


Adjusting

I am the first to tell people that I don't like spiders. Spiders is pretty much the only thing that really gives me the "willies." Since being at the acreage I think I have been handling myself, well. I will admit that any spider inside my house will meet with my foot but I have left all spiders outside, alone. Now for me to take pictures of a spider is a really HUGE step as before I could not even look at a picture. Anyway despite my dislike of them, they are quite fasinating and below are pictures I tool on our second night here. A dragonfly got caught in a net, and the spider quickly came down and starting wrapping it. Once finished it pulled the meal up its web...pretty neat.


The Move

Well a month after our move I am updating my blog with the move day. It was hectic! First there was a hick up with the Uhaul truck the day before and then just the task of loading the house and cleaning. The pictures below are of my two moving buddies, my Dad and Uncle Russell, the last load of cargo in my dad's truck, and the last picture of our old house. I thought I would be more emotional about leaving it as it was my first house BUT I think with the amount of moving I did as a child it didn't seem like that big of a deal.

I'm Back

After a month of no internet at home....I am back, up and running. I will update my blog over the next couple of days. Nice to be connected again and I can't wait to reconnect with some of my cyber "friends".
