Welcome to the Jungle

The last few weeks have been pretty dull. Justin had 6 alerts in a row and stuff on his off days so he hasn't been home much. We've been having lots and lots of rain this summer. The other day it started hailing.




It's kind of hard to tell, but the hail was quite heavy, although it didn't last very long.

Fatty likes to watch out the window when anything happens: rain, hail, birds, bunnies.



He also likes to play baseball with Justin.




We've sort of been neglecting our yard for a number of reasons: Justin is gone all the time, neither of us actually enjoys gardening, and we don't have all the necessary machinery to keep it looking nice. However, when Justin's family was here, they got a us a weed-eater as a sort of housewarming gift. Last weekend, while Justin mowed, I trimmed the edges of the yard. Here is our jungle for a backyard:



Really shabby, I know. Now here's our nice trimmed yard:




I really like the weed-eater we got because it's not huge and heavy and it's also battery-powered which is better for the environment.
