The Hubs and I had Birthdays one day apart.

I didn't want to have to bake myself a cake, so we got me a carrot cake and the hubs a chocolate cake from The Walmart. :)

All 54 years of me.

Field Bindweed

I had to take a pic of this one because I truly do not remember ever having seen it on the plantation.  It's very cute, tho.

The New Microwave!

Alas, the old one died and microwaves being so "vital" these days, we had to go get a new one.  We decided upon one from Walmart.

The Galanz model that we decided on also does air-frying and baking, among other things. 

Fancy Schmancy.

Crepe Myrtle

Another burst of blooms that we look forward to as the season progresses.

The Enormity of the Sky

I love that our home somewhere where I can see so much of the sky, and its many moods and facets.

That's one crazy sunset.

Maintenance Mode

Being a homeowner who er, owns things, means that some things will need to be maintained now and again.

This is a small-ish thing, but when I went to change the batteries to the outdoor temperature sensor, I found a large Mud Dauber nest on it. 

I had to destroy someone's home to keep up with mine, but to be fair, I think they had moved out.

Dumpling/Dragon Boat Festival

So I bought some Bak Chang online to share with the boys for the Bak Chang Festival, and they were pretty good!

Texas Lilacs

So pretty :)
