Life has drastically changed for Connor. As of Monday, he started working as a bag boy at the grocery store. Tonight he gets to find out one of the true meanings of being gainfully employed... how to appreciate a night off! I took this picture after he got home Monday night. He was so tired and a little impatient with me and my camera. I told him to be glad that I didn't come to the store and take blog pictures of him there....as you can see he cracked a smile at that one.
On a side note, I've decided that God put that silly bird nest in my porch basket for a reason. As I have watched that family of birds over the last week and a half I have reflected on my own children. Granted, I am by no means ready for them to leave my nest but I am trying to let them strengthen their wings so that when the day comes they will be able to take flight and soar on their own.
I was so excited when I opened up the box and put the beverage float together that I couldn't help rounding up the rest of my pool supplies.

It's been a week since our baby birds hatched and it is amazing how fast they are growing. Their peach fuzz is changing to feathers and their beaks have taken on a different shape. Mama and Papa Robin still don't like the Dunlap paparazzi hanging around too much and give us an earful if we stay and watch for too long.
The AHS JV tennis team captured first place at the league tournament yesterday. Both singles players and doubles teams brought home gold medals. What a great way to end the season!
Finally the day has come that you have been looking forward to since you were a little boy.... your 14th b-day. Since I can't get a hold of you, I will assume that you have that learners permit in your hand right now! All those years of driving toy trucks, tractors, lawn mowers and 4 wheelers have paid off. Drive with care and Happy Birthday!
