Enjoying the beauty outside.

We have had beautiful weather here (I know I am jinxing it) for the last week or longer. And every afternoon/evening Brooke and I go outside and just enjoy it. Of course, bubbles are a huge part of our time outside. How these little soapy wonders keep kids (big and small) so entertained is funny to watch. This post contains a LOT of pictures and not as many words because, well....my three cups of coffee has done nothing for my energy level this morning therefore I am not very talkative. ;o)

My Brookester blowing bubbles.

I hate to giggle as I type this, but Brooke has the same love for bugs as I do.....it does NOT exist. I walked inside to refill our bubbles when I heard a shrill scream from Brooke and she ran as fast as I have ever seen her run to my side while squealing and near crying. When I asked her what on earth happened she took my hand and showed me this large.....well, flying thing on our butterfly in the back shrubs. No clue what it is, don't want to know either....it's not pretty and it flies. Steven later came home and picked it up showing it to Brooke and myself as we were hanging on to one another cringing and asking him to put it down.

I posted that ugly pic to show you what happened until Daddy came home and removed it from our back yard. This is the look she gave it any time she got anywhere within a yard of it. Her exact words, "Momma I don't like dat ding."

To get her mind off that critter I told her to go slide, and the rest of the pics on this post are of just that.....her totally relaxing on her little slide. Ah, the life!

Looks comfy doesn't she? Finishing up a juice box.

Making sure Momma was still watching.

Bird watching.

And of course, one of my fav's....the pose.
