First Day of School (blues)

Well they are on the bus and headed to school. My twins are in 8th grade now and as much as they drove me nuts over the summer...... I'm teary eyed watching them get on the bus. I even cried when the oldest was a senior in high school. What can I say, I'm a Mom. *sigh* They'll be home in 8 hours............. and I'll hug 'em to death.

Officially a Butterfly Bush

Tonight my husband was outside and noticed a huge (well he thought it was huge) yellow butterfly on our butterfly bush. This is the first time we've ever really seen anything larger than those little yellow or white butterflies on it. Now the quest is to find out what type it is.
