LeAnn's Birthday & Father's Day

Spa treatment? For her birthday, LeAnn wanted her toenails painted.....and she wanted me to do it!

I quickly found out it's not that easy.....

but the finished product turned out OK.

Me with my babys.....and my sweeeet new Father's Day Winged Weeder....a jewel of a tool! This photo was taken two weeks ago.

A photo of our yard while jumping on the trampoline.

Our hydranga bush. I'm sure I spelled that wrong.....but they sure are beautiful.

LeAnn and I in part of our garden. Corn knee-high BEFORE the 4th of July!

This is the cheese cake LeAnn made me for Father's Day. Man-o-man is it something else......and it tastes darn good too! Keylime and strawberries. We shared with Bruce and Carol.

I cooked hamburgers for Father's Day dinner. LeAnn made hers into a Food Channel Masterpiece!

LeAnn gave me some leather work gloves.....enough said.

Got these artsy cool cards from Courtenay and Stephanie.

...then along came a spider.....

So mom and I were busy cleaning the back patio, getting it ready for our heavy summer schedule of hosting some cook outs with some of Springfields finest citizens....our friends,
when all of a sudden this big boy drops in to take a look at what's going on. I had never seen anything like it. I grabbed my camera and started shooting. He just hung there busy playing with that gooey amber stuff....whatever that is. It's like he was saying "I'm ready for my photo session now".
Mom took a picture of me shooting the spider. (red circle)
We tried to find a picture of it on the internet to see what kind it is but were unsuccessful.
Anyway, I thought the photos were pretty cool.......in a creepy sort of way.
