Birdhouse

While Sam worked on the house yesterday, the kids played in the Neighborhood with their old friends. The house that we lived in last time was vacant, so we took a look around....and look what we found. Alex's birdfeeder still hanging where we left it 5 years ago. So we took it across the street to it's new home.
