Homemade Volcano

Abby and I have been wanting to make a volcano for a while now and finally got around to doing it recently. We took some baby food jars and molded some old play doh and model magic around to make the mountain.

There are lots of great sights on the web telling you how to do this.

Warning! This will kill your grass. We now have two big dead spots in the back yard. My bad.

Enjoying the View

So summer is here and I have been enjoying the view and I don't mean the show with all the ladies talking over each other. We found a place close by that rents kayaks and gave it a try a couple of weeks ago. We had a great time and look forward to doing it again soon.

How is your summer going so far?

Happy Birthday Abby
