In the kitchen window

things that dig holes in my yard

1. Unidentified vermin. Most likely looking for grubs.

Double awesome.

2. My husband. Digging post holes for my new screened in porch.

Husband wins!

Crazy Critters

Ever since I got my macro lens, I've been looking at the world around in a smaller scale and wanting to capture the little things.

Lately our house has been frequented by some itty bitty critters that look pretty darn cool.

Do you have any cool macro shots that you've taken?

Our House: Curb Appeal

While the inside of our house has been a total work in progress since the summer of 2008, the curb appeal has been pretty much neglected. Sure, we've done a few things to spiffy up the look including tearing out some terrible looking trees, getting new windows, painting the door, and occasionally watering the grass. Oh, and we mulched too.

I guess it looks a bit better from where we started, but most days I feel like I should be on an episode of Curb Appeal, or Desperate Landscapes, or Yard Crashers. Hello...is anyone in TV land listening? I need your help.

Some days I joke with my husband that I'm going to spend the day at Lowe's or Home Depot until I spot and bring home Ahmed Hassan. He knows I'm not joking either.
