Strange Sunset

Last Thursday or Friday, as Mom and I were coming back from grocery shopping, we saw a strange-looking sunset on the horizon. The red streaks looked a bit like sun rays when the sun comes up! Lydia took these pictures at home. It was very beautiful and wonderous.

* Looking eastish in the front yard.

Too bad the tree was in the way :( :(

Oma & Opa's 45th Anniversary

May 19th, 2007

* Here's where we had the dinner- in the "Carriage House",
a private room at the Vineland Estates Winery.

* Looking to the big window at the back of the 'house'. My Oma is at the very back.

* Katelynn and cousin Anika

* My dessert!!!! :)

It was lots of fun and good food too!

HOT, hot, hot!!

Yep, it's been crazy hot these last few days. If only this humid air would leave, it might not feel like 40C every day!! But it's a good thing we have an awning on our back porch so we don't get fried.
Dad's also been trying to get our pool in shape. We're trying to convert to a salt water system. It doesn't mean swimming in ocean water! After we pour salt in the water, a pump makes chlorine from the salt by a chemical reaction of some sort. It's supposed to keep the water from stinging your eyes. But we've still been swimming! The kids have been in the pool almost every day! But 70 degrees Fahrenheit is a little chilly for me!
Mom, Lydia, and I have been planting our front garden! It used to be full of old bushes and weeds galore, but now it looks so much better! I really have to get pictures of the flowers!
Still finishing up schoolwork. I'm also hoping to find a job for the summer.
I think that's all for now, Bye:)
