bees!
How have we gone this long without posting any pics of the bees? We have certainly done plenty of boring people to death talking about them.
OK so the bees came about 3 weeks ago. Ten thousand of them, in a wire box, in the mail. Mike picked them up from the post office & put them in their bee house in the backyard.
They are quite nice so far, the bees. They just do their thing & don't bug us. Sara loves them ... she says "bees! bzzzzzzz!" ...and wants to hold them, so we made a little fence around their house to keep a bit of distance.
The bees will make us a bunch of honey. They have already made a lot of honey comb. That's what's hanging off the wood bar in these pictures.
Yes, that's Mike in the super cool bee outfit.
Looks like they killed their queen though (when you buy bees they always get a 'stranger' queen so it's always possible that they will kill her.) So we have a new queen on the way...hopefully she'll get on better with the crew.

I'm not sure what to say about this!
You should say your brother is totally cool, but a stinky hippy at heart.
