| Camera Commentary: After a constant struggle with pesky rabbits eating all my zinnias it appears that this one may have made it long enough to bloom! Fingers crossed. |
152...July 30th
 |
| Camera Commentary: I can't stop crafting! Two months to go and most of the crafts are done...until I get another idea in my head. |
151...July 29th
 |
| Camera Commentary: The garden is in full swing right now. For the past 3 weeks we have picked at least 10 grape tomatoes daily to add to this bowl! |
150...July 28th
 |
| Camera Commentary: The delicious ingredients for bruschetta thanks to our garden! Well, the cheese was not home grown. |
149...July 27th
 |
| Camera Commentary: Despite the blurry photo, this is a stack of wall insulation that a previous owner left in our basement. Since it was taking up space I looked into selling it and sure enough it sold! Thanks previous owner. |
148...July 26th
 |
| Camera Commentary: Hands down the most exciting part of my day was buying groceries again after being gone a week. I love a stocked pantry and fridge. |
147...July 25th
 |
| Camera Commentary: Few things tire out the Energizer Bunny that is Molly more than a week long trip to Camp Bow Wow. |
146...July 24th
Since I spent the past 7 days taking multiple photos a day I thought I deserved a pass. Also, this day consisted of sleeping in the airport, not getting on planes, and being exhausted so I was truly in no mood.
145...July 23rd
 |
| Camera Commentary: The reason for visiting the Pacific Northwest- our friends Steffen and Kate tied the knot! Beautiful wedding. |

142...July 20th
 |
| Camera Commentary: Our trip up to the Mt. Hood area went pretty much the opposite of what we had planned, but the ZigZag trail was by far the most amazingly green and lush forest we ever saw. |
141...July 19th
 |
| Camera Commentary: By way of the BoltBus we made it to Portland, OR! Yeah, it was pretty weird. |
140...July 18th
 |
| Camera Commentary: We made it to Seattle a day earlier than planned but went with it. Pretty amazing "park" with the city backdrop and water frontal view. |
139...July 17th
 |
| Camera Commentary: Hanging out in the airport waiting for a secondary standby flight to Seattle since we didn't make it on the Portland one. Standby flying is tough business. |

 |
| Camera Commentary: Perks of my job include getting to do afternoon site visits to beautiful places such as the Huron river. |
137...July 15th
 |
| Camera Commentary: Even Molly is wondering how 2 people acquire so much laundry to fold. |
136...July 14th
 |
| Camera Commentary: A Saturday full of failures and mishaps regarding wedding crafts of the DIY nature. The silver lining is we did get about 50 clean and ready to label beer bottles. |
135...July 13th
 |
| Camera Commentary: We decided to give her a towel to play with like she had when she was a puppy. She proceeded to rip a hole in it and play superhero with it. Best dog ever. |

 |
| Camera Commentary: My friend just got two new kittens! This little one tuckered itself out right in my lap. |
132...July 10th
 |
| Camera Commentary: A new farmers market opened right down the street from us so we took the opportunity to bike there. |
131...July 9th
 |
| Camera Commentary: Today was my first day back to work after enjoying 2 months off. I felt I deserved a reward. |
130...July 8th
 |
| Camera Commentary: We finally got around to cutting up that tree that blew down. Hooray for more fire wood for our fireplace we can't ever properly light. |
129...July 7th
 |
| Camera Commentary: Detroit has an AMAZING outdoor Farmers Market with literally 100's of vendors ranging from veggies to meat to fruit pies to flowers. I can't wait to go back in every season. |
128...July 6th
 |
| Camera Commentary: Our first garden yield that wasn't lettuce. There are so many just waiting to ripen out there! |
127...July 5th
 |
| Camera Commentary: A crazy 5-minute storm passed over Ann Arbor that brought strong wind gusts and hail. The dead standing tree (background) finally toppled over as did many branches on the Maple. |
126...July 4th
 |
| Camera Commentary: It's still weird to go to public pools after growing up with one in your backyard, but with a heat index of 100+ it was the only proper way to spend the 4th of July. |
125...July 3rd
 |
| Camera Commentary: One year ago today we brought home a calm, small puppy named Portia. A year later she is a crazy, medium dog named Molly. |
124...July 2nd
 |
| Camera Commentary: Biggest zucchini EVER. We made delicious zucchini chips out of this big boy. |

122...June 30th
 |
| Camera Commentary: They are here! Our wedding invitations and RSVP postcards arrived and we spent the entire night labeling, addressing, and stickering. |
121...June 29th
 |
| Camera Commentary: Despite the dark photo, this is a handmade groomsmen boutonniere that I've been playing around with lately. Almost perfected. |
120...June 28th
 |
| Camera Commentary: The theme of this week is apparently the heat. The last thermometer reading of 100 degrees is the outside temperature. Ouch. |
119...June 27th
 |
| Camera Commentary: After having one fish in our aquarium for far too long I decided to get him some buddies- 3 blood-finned tetras and 1 zebra fish. |
118...June 26th
 |
| Camera Commentary: Another homemade goodie to keep cool during this heat wave are these delicious OJ and fresh fruit popsicles. |
117...June 25th
 |
| Camera Commentary: Normally I dont crave smoothies living up here, but with the heat wave pushing on by this was a delicious lunch time treat. |
