• Pictures;

  
  Our cats love the fresh air and are no longer kittens!
  
  
  My brother didn't want any pictures taken of him on his birthday.

  
  I managed to snap a shot of his silloette in the car.

  
  But a picture was tricked out him anyways, as my Dad lurked in the background.

   
  My brother insisted on eating cake shirtless. Mom's the one with the knife, I'm holding the camera, Cory's sitting there on the end, and my Dad and brother are the most obvious ones.

    
  Dandelions populated the front AND backyard for the first couple weeks of May.

  
  I turned the compost pile by myself when my Dad talked himself out of it. "It's too hard" The next day, it had already cooked down to this and gained a wonderful compost-y smell.

  
  Charlie's worn out by the heat but you get to see him bouncing around his pen for most of the day, which makes him seem deceptively young.

  
  We give him several water bowls when it warms up, just in case.

  
  Unfortunately, Charlie likes to tip over his bowls alot.

   
  By the end of two weeks the grass was too tall, though. Dad had just enough gas to mow the front, but not the back. We managed to mow a small chunk, Cory and I, before our neighbor took pity on us and insisted on mowing the rest of the back yard for us even though we originally only gave into saying OK for the graden plot. We got a ton of compost materials from it. Ran out of space for this pile.

  
  So we made another one!

  
  And another one! The camera got blurry because of the rain when I took this picture today.

   

  Friday, we till! Saturday we get a few more plants and seeds. And either that afternoon or Sunday's, we plant!

  I'll take more pictures then! Tomorrow, we walk to rescue plants from the side of the road from the mowers.
