Babies in our grill!

So the other evening I came home from work and was going to make chicken on the grill. I turn on the gas and hit the ignitor button and then immediately open the lid to the grill. Here is what I found! Something had built a nest and had babies in our grill!

So I quickly turned off the gas and heat and yelled for Nathan and he helped me put them into a shoe box which we kept on the porch so the mother would return. We are still not sure what these things were, you can see how tiny they were with my finger in the picture. That evening they slowly disappeared as the mommy came and took them to another nest. So this was our first new home in our new home. Thought you animal planet lovers would like to help solve the mystery. More to come!

Fruits of our labor!


The garden in Morehead is in full swing. We have cucumbers, yellow squash and zucchini coming out of our ears. Also green beans are plentiful as well. Tomatoes are large and green and the corn is almost to size. We also have sweet potatoes just around the corner. Nathan and I raided it on Sunday before coming back to Lexington and we grilled out the squash and zucchini and made cucumber salad. Super yummy!

Thirsty Thursday!




So we went with some friends to Thirsty Thursday a few weeks back and I am behind on the bloggin'! The Lexington Legends faced off with the Rome Braves (I think, it was weeks ago and my memory was foggy....it was thirsty thursday afterall!) We had a great time and I even got a game ball!
