This past week we noticed something way, way, way
up high in the tree- in the back yard.
Well, actually Brett noticed it.
(this picture was taken with an extreme zoom in- notice the hole toward the top? that's where Brian got it with a rock from the wrist rocket... sweet.)
This wasp nest has proved to be the most exciting thing that has happened around here in a dang- long time.
It's made for some fantastic bb gun shooting & wrist rocket target practice.
Our necks are kinked-
It's a shame really, such a beautiful little nest.

Or background for an all important text?
Fortunately for us... and them...
there are no wasps in it- anymore.
Our necks are kinked-but it was worth it.
It's a shame really, such a beautiful little nest.I tell you what?
Those wasps must have worked their little hearts out getting this done!
It's truly reminiscent of Winnie the pooh.
When Brian couldn't hit it-
the girls recommended he get some balloons & float up singing... cute.
But eventually the humans won out-
But eventually the humans won out-
and I wouldn't have it any other way.
Even though it was amazing- it was seriously frightening at the same time!

That does sound like high excitement! We tend to have a lot of wasp's nests around here. But even though we haven't seen any lately, we have had a TON of wasps getting in. What's that about?
Oh my goodness, what if wasps HAD been in it?
It's funny that this was such an exciting event.
I am worried Brian was not able to shoot it down...what about all the target practice that kid does?
lucky for you guys its been way too cold for wasps to be hanging around. so cool though. you guys should donate it to that science freak teacher in the fourth grade. you know the one. she LOVES this kind of stuff!
ps, i want to try the wrist rocket next time i come over. in fact, maybe i want one for christmas. they sound fun!
ha ha Brett looks just like one of the kids from the back :) Fun stuff!
Okay, I haven't been able to find a nest anywhere, but I have been killing 5 or 6 wasps a day inside my house. Seriously, what the?! Where are they coming from??
