Lately life has been filled with...

Lawn mowing...

Evening shopping trips with brothers and friends (this particular trip was mostly spent listening to cards)...

Farm work...

Target practice...

Ice cream...

 Cute little brothers...

Hot Sunday afternoons with (or mostly without) friends...

Birthday party with grandparents...

Life: 

of or pertaining to animate existence

" Water has no taste, no color, no odor; it cannot be defined, art relished while ever mysterious. Not necessary to life, but rather life itself. It fills us with a gratification that exceeds the delight of the senses."

One year down...

So, it's been a whole year (and one day) since I published my first post...not a great post, but it was sorta a practice one.

According to blogger I have 188 posts, 24 followers, and 13,925 page-views...although I am sure many of those came from this computer, I found it interesting to find out that there were views from Russia, France, Canada, Uganda, Germany, Costa Rica, S. Africa, Japan, and U.K.

Looking through old posts my favorites are the Scavenger Hunt Sundays!

This has got to be my all time favorite photo that I've taken...

 This one won a photo contest in the Farm and Dairy...

 And here are a few random photos I just like...
