Here are the next seven in 119 days worth of photos so far, not quite one third of the way through.

Steve went back to Tokyo for summer semester. We look happy and he is, but I was a little sad. He is having a great time, doing well in school and enjoying the city. I am very happy that he has this opportunity, but it is a little weird without him around the house. He will be back at the beginning of August.

My Mothers Day flowers! Aren't they pretty. My understanding is the Jim was sent out to buy them. Very nice taste. Some girl will be lucky.

It has been so dry this winter and spring, our hills are brown. Most years at this time they are green. It will be an awful fire season. This hill is behind one of the buildings at work on the UCI campus.

My very favorite brownie mix. Why in the world would I want to make brownies from scratch when these are so tasty. Jim needed to bring something for a bake sale at work, and these are so easy. He did not make them, Erin did.

It is very rare when the cats will sit together anywhere, so when I saw this, I had to take a picture. They sat like this for several minutes without fighting before Lucy got bored and ran away.

We celebrated Mothers Day on Saturday because Steve was leaving. The kids and Dennis did what they always do - breakfast in bed, the morning papers, flowers and cards.

I used the macro setting on the camera to take this. I like that the background is blurry.
