Little of this and a little of that

The pictures shown above are items that I have around my house. There are statues, plaques and photos that I have collected throughout the years. As you can see I have a love for Egypt and that skulls are actually movie props from King Kong. I thought it would be fun to include the pets that I have at my house. Trooper is our mini schnauzer, we have two hamsters Teddy and Lila and a few fish.

Butterfly Issues!!

Hi Class,

For this weeks picture assignment I decided to take a picture of a monarch butterfly.  My hopes were to capture it as it hatched which you can see in the picture and then take a couple pictures after its wings had dried.  Unfortunately this guy didn't come out of its chrysalis right and as you can see his/her wings didn't fully develop.  My kids and I do the whole caterpillar life cycle for fun, so I am no stranger to things not going right.  I already have a butterfly that I have been feeding for about two weeks.  We shall see if this one makes it!
