Out Back

We have a nice big backyard that sometimes doesn't get much use during the winter and rainy spring. The weather was so great tonight Addy and I spent all evening out back.

Here are some shots of my flower pots. I haven't had a chance to do many of them this year since the weather hadn't been cooperating. This is a start.


Here are some random shots of the yard in general.


Notice in the far back corner of the yard - that is the makeshift bunny protection.


We used Addy's outdoor playpen to put around the bunny nest. (Good idea Mom)


On Monday night we were saddened to find that three of the bunnies were killed by a cat. So, I had to spend the evening stringing chicken wire over the play pen to protect the remaining three from harm.



The nest is right on the ground under the leaves.


Here is a picture of one of the bunnies in the nest. SO CUTE!!


Addy had a blast playing with the hose ( I barely got the pots watered before she was all over it.)



Even The Rock got to come out and enjoy some sunshine. He likes to watch the birds and bugs. (He isn't allowed to visit the bunnies.)


And we had to take a break for some dinner and dessert. Like mother, like daughter . . .


That is chocolate in case anyone had any question! ( And yes, that is her swimsuit, for some reason she ran across it and decided she has to wear it around the house once we got back inside.)
