Summer Time Fun!

Wow! What a summer we have had already! Lots has been going on in our backyard... Check it out:

We are having issues with prairie dogs (squeakies) in our backyard and garden, so our trusty Brad got his bow and took them out one by one...

Ivy has been great about backyard critters. She loves to hold worms, pill bugs, lady bugs, you name it. However, she thought it was a good idea to grab a wasp that was on the slide... Yep, just guess what happened to her thumb. Poor thing had a swollen thumb the rest of the night.

Oh my garden... what can I say. I DO NOT have a green thumb like my mom. The rhubarb came back this year, but that is about it. I planted carrots, beans, squash, tomatoes, strawberries, zuccini and cantelope. However... I think the only thing that will survive the rodents and me will be the rhubarb.:)

So... speaking of rodents... this little bunny like our garden too, but we won't shoot it. It is a cute little bunny that was born by our shed and has been hanging out at our house. Ivy loves to watch it.

We also have been out in the little blow up pool and playing on the slide in our backyard when its warm. But, unfortunately it hasn't been too warm lately, so no pics to show you of our fun!
