Hot and Humid

After a hot and humid day, we are finally getting some much needed rain. Yesterday Jasmine thought it good to lay on the concrete floor of the back porch. It was a nice cool spot to take a rest. Since the hummingbird didn't make an appearance, I took her picture instead.

Last evening James and I went for an orchard walk. It seems a strange place this time of year as it looks so different than in the fall. We thought we had gotten away alone until Jazz came running down the road behind us. She was very plaesed with herself for having discovered us and did a cute little dance to prove her excitement. We again walked a bit too far for her liking and she was back home before we returned.

Tonight we celebrate Nathan's seventeenth birthday with strawberry shortcake. It is the standard birthday dessert for Nate as his birthday comes right at strawberry time. Lucky guy! Tomorrow is James and my 26th wedding anniversary. We have to teach the kids class at church in the evening so we won't be going out to dinner this time. Maybe I can get a rain check on that one...
