Firework Show!

A HUGE park close to our house had a firework show at about 10pm tonight. We were able to see most of it from our backyard. Ben STILL hadn't fallen asleep by then so we brought him out to see it. He would have seen more if he had his eyes open!

Attack of the caterpillars!

On Saturday we noticed some bare areas and some fuzzy things on our pecan tree in our back yard. Further investigation led to the discovery of probably 50 caterpillars getting fat on our leaves! I've never seen anything like it. Wonder if they're surviving the rain tonight....

Since you actually look at this....

Word on the street is that people actually look at this blog (thanks for the support Amy!) As such, I will be better about updating it....starting tonight. And since I got a new computer at work that has an internal SD card reader, it will be much easier to do so. Enjoy.
