Look what I found . . .

In the tree in our front yard!


A robin's nest with cute little baby birds in it! I couldn't get too close because Mama Robin was glaring at me from the telephone wire and I didn't want to upset her.

Anyway, a few days later, I found some baby wrens in a birdhouse in our back yard. I actually just went to straighten out the house when I saw this cute little guy.

 Later, one of the babies was out! I thought he might be getting ready to take his first leap, so I kept watching and watching...

Anyway, I watched for a loooong time. Then, when I wasn't paying attention- he was gone! I was scared that he was stuck on the fence, like maybe he got up there, but then couldn't get back down to his house. So, I went to the other side of the fence to look for any signs of an injured baby bird, but I didn't see one. The mama bird kept flying over by him. I'm going to assume he made his journey safely and flew off! Today, all of the babies are out of the house.

Wedding Update!

Alright! Everyone keeps asking, so I FINALLY began my wedding countdown.
I am getting married in
 59 days
or 1,418 hours
or 85,104 minutes
or 5,106,284 seconds at the exact time I looked this up, via timeanddate.com.

This past week, I mailed invitations. To keep everything small, we only invited a few family members and four friends. I've been putting this off for weeks. Even though there were only a few invitations... I'm soooo lazy. Or busy. Maybe I'll choose 'busy' so I feel better about myself.

Over the weekend, Gary and I got our engagement photos taken with Sofi Seck of Sofi Seck Photography. It was a blast and we're both really excited to see how they turned out. After the photos, Sofi took Gary and I to a Nicaraguan restaurant in St. Louis. Neither of us have ever had Nicaraguan food, but we both really liked our meals. Gary usually likes his food, but I'm a little harder to please.

Let's see. The big stuff has been done for months. We have an officiant, beach house, photographer, bride, groom...

That's it for now.
