lovely afternoon

Today is a beautiful day in my backyard.  So we decided to have a picnic.   I love the color of the green leaves against the blue sky,  I can't seem to get over that one,  it just amazes me.  Anyway, we had a lovely picnic filled with laughter and followed by a short baseball game.  Caleb decided he needed to take his shirt off to get 'nice and cold'.  Oh yeah in that top picture is the new snake Matt found at work and brought home for us to look at.  I think its a baby California King snake, which is harmless to humans by the way, although the name just sounds like it should be poisonous!
