Slice of Summer

Many of those who know me, know I love scrapbooking. I haven't done much though since Chase was born, but I had done a Slice of Summer layout a couple of years ago and finally took some pics of Chase to go on it.  I took one of the pictures and put it in a collage frame on the wall.  He will now point to the picture and sign please if he wants some watermelon.  It's definitely an outdoor snack as he is a mess with it.

I've been running a few months now, and my friend Jennifer and I are up to 5 miles.  It's been so hot lately, it's been hard to get motivated.  We went out to Bona Dea Saturday morning.  I came across my first snake there.  I stepped over thinking it was just a stick, and she thought it was a snake.  We went back to look and it was a COPPERHEAD!  Needless to say, I was a bit jumpy after that, even a butterfly scared me:)  I think we may find a new route next time.  Then, on the same day, my husband found a black widow outside on the back patio.  I hope that's all the creepy critters we see for a while. 

I need to learn more about snake identification when we move out to the land.  I'm sure to find some there at some point.  Speaking of the new house, we will meet with our builder this Friday to get started with the building process.  It's exciting but I feel like I have a lot to do...picking out everything will be hard.  I'm a little indecisive at times.
