I'm loving my new camera! This picture above is of a bumble bee which has overtaken our Hibiscus plants. In hindsight, the Hibiscus plants sure look good by the pool, but it was a bad choice. We fight the bumblebees a lot of the time!
Rylee Grace's snapshot.....She looks like her daddy, but I'm starting to see a little of her momma in her too...... :)
Round 1 of Swimming Lessons complete.....
These are the Bell kiddos - they were spending a few days with their Mimi and Pop (Rick and Mandy Bell) and came to spend an hour a day with us. Sweet kids.....
Rylee thinks swimming lessons are a perfect opportunity to have a pool full of kids for her pleasure!
......and my favorite concotion from my garden! I love, love, love me some "Refrigerator Pickles". For those interested..... the recipe is:
2 quarts of thinly sliced cucumbers
1 cup of thinly sliced onions
Pour 2 TBSP of salt over the cucumbers and onions and mix well. Let sit for 2 hours.
After 2 hours, pour the water completely off.
In your bowl, put 1 1/2 C sugar and 1/2 C of White Vinegar. Mix well.
Refrigerate and it keeps indefinitely......although, it lasts about a day at my house! :)
Enjoy!
