One Year Older and Wiser Too,

Happy Birthday (a few days ago) to Brent. His birthday fell in the middle of the week so on his actual birthday he opened his presents and had a nice relaxing night at home. He actually was so very nice to let me go out that night for a much needed girl's night, but I think he enjoyed getting a quiet night to himself. Then on Saturday we had cake and ice cream to celebrate. Unfortunately this is the only picture I got of the festivities. This was my first attempt at decorating a cake, I was using Brent's birthday as a practice for Jaxon's cake in just a few weeks. Happy Birthday!!!!

Unexpected Visitors

Last Sunday after Jaxon's nap I was in his room changing his diaper and I noticed something outside his window. I took a second look and realized that we had a very large rabbit hopping all over our backyard. I showed Brent and of course snapped a few pictures then we figured/hoped that it would some how find its way home on its own. We were finishing our dinner not even an hour after first spotting our guest, Brent looked out the patio door to see if it was gone to find that not only was it still there but it had apparently told all of its friends about our place. In less than an hour we went from one rabbit to four. All of them were roaming our backyard making themselves very much at home. Poor Payton freaked when he saw them. Brent went to the neighbors house to see if they knew anything about the rabbits and thankfully the rabbits belonged to them. So Brent helped our neighbor chase and capture all of the rabbits and push them back through the hole they made under the fence. I have to say I like animals but I wasn't sad to see them all leave.
