Watch out for the web!

Imagine our surprise tonight when we go to walk out the back door and just about walked into this huge spider web, complete with the icky large spider sitting dead center, eating its prey. YUCK!! Of course, once I stopped laughing at Kevin for getting web in his head (of course had he been watching where he was walking, that wouldn't have happened, HA) I grabbed the camera to see if I could get a picture of it.

My 4 1/2 month old niece came to stay with us for the weekend. My brother has to work nightshift (police officer) and my sister-in-law went to the beach with friends. So we were more than happy to get to spend the weekend with Briana. She did great today and is such a pleasant baby!

September Already!

Wow, where does time go?? Today is Labor Day. It was SO beautiful out! We didn't have any plans for the day, so we worked on getting things done around the house. I can finally say I finished mulching. Sure, it's almost fall, and it took me all summer, but at least it is done! HA

I put some charcoal in the fire pit and we had a cookout ourselves. I marinated a steak for Kevin and the kids and I had burgers and hot dogs. I also took fresh veggies from my garden and made shish-ka-bobs, YUM!!


Finished off the day by lighting the tiki torches and sitting out in the hot tub!!! Nothing better than a nice soak with all the jets running. I can even watch tv while sitting out there!!! :) I took some photos from the deck off my bedroom of the water changing colors. I think it cycles through about 7 colors, much prettier in person!
