Does it surprise anyone that I have several months worth of pictures on my camera. I'm not much of a photographer.
A while ago we were cleaning our pantry out and we found this bottle of barbecue sauce. Yes, that is the actual name. :D
We also found this can of (lemonade???) that said it outdated in 1812. :D Our house is only 13ish years old. :D
Old vintage book I saw at a local thrift shop.
These were the first daffodils I saw this year. Back in March or April, I believe.
Close up.
Mary statue in our Mary garden.
Tulips are coming up.
How do people take selfies. How can you concentrate on holding the camera still, smiling and clicking.
Another failure.
Okay these are really ugly.
My sister helped out.
Much better.
My Church.
I painted this tiger face on surcoat for a costume, for my brother. Unfortunately this particular costume got lost and wasn't found until our play was over.
Painting on the living room floor.
My brother (the one that was supposed to use the tiger surcoat) helping with cardboard shields.
Royal family coat of arms, for a banner.
Peacock cloak for the Prince.
An attempt to take a picture of part of my family's vast library. We collect a lot of books from thrift stores. There are more shelves behind these ones.
Free range chicken.
Attack bantam rooster. Monster Max/Napoleon/The Monster Mash!
Beware of territorial roosters, no matter their size!
Some of our free range chickens got put away because they were eating the gardens. :D
We have to many cats. I'm not a cat lover. :D
A car full of siblings heading off to Teo Kwon Do.
My older sister planting a rosebush.
I didn't get to stand around taking pictures long, as I was told to help plant dozens of baby trees. I have since managed to forget how many and what kind. :D
St. Claire statue under the crab apple bush. (I think that's what it is.)
St. Francis in the grove of what is now a jungle. :D
Just having planted a lot of baby trees and being very hot, it being late summer, May 5th to be exact, we begged our dad to let us open the pool up. This is a view of our slide and the top of my brother's head.
Younger sister swinging on the slide stand.
I am the Confirmation sponsor for this lovely younger sister. In this picture she's sporting her modest swimsuit.
My older sister in her modest swimsuit.
Yay, the cover's off. I was the first one to get into the water this year. I wanted bragging rights. :D We had some trouble getting the cover off as it had about a foot of dirty rain water on top of it. I almost froze in the process. :D I was pushing the cover from the inside.
My mom in her modest swimsuit, skimming leaves and bugs off the bottom of the pool.
Sister Poppy again.
You can see some of our solar panels in the background. We live off the grid. :D
Pool stand.
Me.
More pictures coming soon.
