Whew! We made it through a whole week without anyone getting sick ... without having to leave the house unless we wanted to. :) And we even managed to throw some fun stuff in too.
We have Alex's follow up appointment at Children's Hospital on Tuesday. Then hopefully he'll be cleared to resume normal activities. He's been asking to ride his bike a lot since we've been home. We might just have to hit the bike trail Tuesday evening. :)
We also have some fun stuff planned for this week as long as the weather cooperates. We are really looking forward to spending some time together as a family. Our local farm show is this week. We go every year and always have a good time. I entered some photos into their photo contest again this year. I'll post them later in the week.
Anyway, let's look at last week's photos, shall we?
{Sunday}
My brother's cow had her calf so we went out to see her. She's just one week old in this photo. She was feeding and her mama gave her a big lick on her face right before I took this photo. Isn't she adorable? I love her little tongue sticking out!
{Monday}
I planted some other bulbs this year so now we have purple and yellow gladiolus flowers along with the red ones we already had. I love the deep purple of these!
{Tuesday}
I finally got a photo of a bird nest with an egg in it!
{Wednesday}
Another beautiful butterfly I came across this week. And, of course, I had the wrong lens on so I couldn't get real close like I wanted to. :) The color palette consists of colors I managed to find in the butterfly's wings.
{Thursday}
The kids and I went to a local lake with some friends from church. While there I got to teach one of the teenage girls how to shoot in manual. We walked around looking for something interesting to photograph and came across these hibiscus growing along the lake.
{Friday}
We have lots of sunflowers blooming right now. Some are about 10 feet tall!
{Saturday}
Okay, so I have lots of butterflies and flower photos this week. :) This Tiger Swallowtail was loving my liatris flowers. I sat outside and enjoyed watching it flutter around for about 10 minutes. It stayed longer but I was getting too hot. :)
Thanks for stopping by! Have a fabulous week!
