Making Rice Krispie Treats

Backyard campout

We started our summer with a Sky Sox baseball game with my parents on Friday night and then on Saturday we pitched the tent out in the field behind our house and went camping!! We had grilled hot dogs for dinner and of course smores for dessert. Once it got dark we played hide and seek with flashlights...this was Liam's favorite =) We crawled into our sleeping bags about 10pm and even though it was crazy windy and our tent was a shakin' we all slept like babies! It was so much fun just spending time together with no distractions! What a great way to start off the summer!! =)

Summer Hail Storm

Here are some pictures from the thunder/rain/hail storm we got this afternoon!! It was crazy!! It poured and poured and then the rain turned into small little balls of ice which turned into bigger balls of ice. The hail destroyed my small, delicate flowers in the birdbath and chopped off half the leaves on my geraniums...grrr...I hope they will bounce back so I don't have to replace them. =)
