Fun in the Sun with the Bees?






We spent this past Mother's Day sitting outside in the sun, sipping wine watching the kids play. It was a relaxing day which ended in the culmination of king crab legs with ribs and more wine, per this mom's request. After visiting my mom Big b's mom drove over for some relaxing by the pool and great food courtesy of her son.
Cousin G spent the day with us as A was fighting some virus (swine flu??) and really need to rest. The girls had a blast playing in the water, squirting the dog and eating ice pops.
The boys continued playing baseball out front and unexpectedly found some critters in a nearby tree. The swarm was downright frightening but after a short while disappeared. I had seen something similar years ago when a HUGE swarm of honeybees surrounded our old house while migrating? Not sure where they were heading at that time, but they made a pit-stop our home covering all windows, doors, walls trapping us all inside for hours.
This time their destination was the hive in our neighbor's tree. Pretty cool.
Pictures enclosed.
Enjoy,
J
