We had a possum trapped in our toolshed for about a week. It finally got brave enough to attempt an escape but I think Chopper spotted it after it had managed to get about halfway around our backyard fence. I don't know how long the possum had been stuck in this one spot with Chopper beneath him standing guard but it was probably for a few hours. Once we got Chopper away from him he wandered off on his own. He made a big mess on one of the shelves in our shed by tearing up a bag of charcoal. That was fun to clean up.

Here are Abigail and Logan enjoying the warm weather we have been having lately. We are once again trying to get our backyard into shape so I use the outdoor time to do some weedpulling and cleaning up while the kiddos play. Doug built this sandbox when Abigail was about nine months old and she doesn't get to use it as much as she would like because we get attacked by all of the mosquitos in the summer. Maybe this year we can keep them under control!
