Finally

Olivia finally lost her first tooth yesterday (July 1st). She was so excited. I am thinking as a kid, that must put you in a whole different "age" catergory with your peers. Now she is one of them!!

This is the DREADED cactus we have. Actually this is the smaller half of the cactus. The big part is by the road and it's way too mean to get as many flowers as this one. Usually every year when it blooms I am out of town and miss it. This year I got back just in time. You can't even pull weeds around this thing and they end up in your fingers, but it does look really nice when it blooms.
