Bee Update
So here's the "rest of the story". After the bees all funneled into the hive boxes, life went back to normal. They, meaning the hive, was still kind of in the middle of the yard though. However, we all ventured back outside and all was well. The kids were ok playing outside and the bees didn't bother anyone. At midnight Chris went out (after the bees were sleeping...just kidding, chillin' I guess) and moved the hive over to where we were planning on putting them, tucked in a corner in a low-traffic area of the yard. You can't see from the picture but there are about a dozen bees just buzzin' around the boxes there. They just stay in their little corner of the yard. Roxy has been over several times sniffing around and so far, nothing's happened. The kids have been playing outside all day and no bee stings. So all is well in bee land. Oh, and the best part? Not one kid had nightmares about bees!!

Whew! Nice moving the bees Chris! I sure hope Roxy doesn't get curious. A bee sting on her snout could block her airway, be careful! (No pun intended!) Now...on to insstalling that new floor! :o)
That is so cool. Thanks for the warning. Are the bees on the corner closest to our house???
I just read all your recent posts! I was a little behind =) Sounds like you guys are living a dream! I'd love to see your garden and trees all in a bloom =) And as cool as I think the bees are... I am terrified of them =)
