Backyard Beauties

Here are our tomato plants (trees?) They are growing so tall. We were afraid they would be all plant and no tomatoes but we are getting some good size tomatoes off of them now. We do love home grown tomatoes. Beauty # 2 One of the hummingbirds that come by. This one was chasing another one off this morning after I had just refilled their food.

A day at the Zoo

JT and I went to the North Carolina Zoo today. He was hesitant at first not wanting to take the 3 hr drive but after he got there he had a good time. This zoo is my favorite one. The animals are in spacious and shaded habitats and seem to be very healthy. It has nice shady paths to walk on and a tram you can ride if you want. It has cafe's and play areas for children. These ostridges are huge!!
These lions were snuggled together for a nice nap. Sweet huh?


I think JT feels tough.







Some pretty orchids.





JT really likes the alligators and he got some good pictures of them










I believe this bear is eating a turtle. He was really enjoying it.

This roadrunner was pretty entertaining.

As I said I think JT had fun. I enjoyed it too.

Finally Made It!! Graduation was today, June 12, 2010 Now it's on to BYU Idaho.
Elmer was amazed at all the banners the school has. The gym looked good but the sound system was bad and couldn't understand most of the talking.
