3/7/2011

Massage day! This is the beautiful room in which I go to get my massage and relax.

Sometime colorful umbrella's make a drink happier. Even if it is just a fresh cup of orange juice.

3/2/11

Peeps!!!! Yes, people it is that time of the year. The stores are fully loaded with Peeps. This is my favorite holiday candy. It all started with my Grandma. She used to always have them. The only difference is that she would open them and let them harden and eat them. I personally like them soft and fresh. I don't have a favorite color. Today I chose purple. Enjoy!

3/1/11

We splurged last night and had a Papa Murphy's 5 meat stuffed pizza. I also had a salad. It was so yummy! Enjoy!

2/28/11

From Winter to spring. The bushes are starting to bloom. Just look at these pretty yellow flowers. Enjoy!

2/27/11

Snow in the Valley Of the Sun. Can you believe it? We went for a partial hike up the Superstition Mountains today. We got snowed and sleeted on. It was great. It has been an interesting winter this year. It even snowed at our house. Here is one of the pictures of the snow. Enjoy!

2/26/11

We went hiking in Papago Park today. We decided to try the higher hill this time. I made it to the top (where the trail ends) But, Don had to show how superior he is to me and climbed the rock. So, he came to the edge to wave and show me he made it. We are way too competitive for our own good. Enjoy!

2/25/11

We came across this. I have never seen cacti spread like this. Some were dead and some still alive. I have no explanation how this happened but it made for a cool picture. Enjoy!

2/24/11

I have been working on getting my courtyard full of plants and crusty toads. The toads must have personality. I got this box in the mail from my parents. When I opened it there was a Crusty toad with loads of personality. Enjoy!

2/23/11

We were walking and found this huge birds nest in the tree. I think it is the biggest I have ever seen. Enjoy!

2/22/11

This tree has caught my eye every time I walk by it. Today was the day. The branches don't grow straight out they curve around. This picture doesn't do it justice, but will give you some idea. Enjoy!

2/21/11

We walked to the grocery store which is a little over a mile away. Coming back I saw this little canal with this cool tree growing over it. I have seen this little area in all the times we have driven by it.  I am glad we decided to walk. Enjoy!

2/20/11

Still raining! We took a morning walk and the rain drops looked so delicate on this plant. I love the way they look so shiny! Enjoy!

2/19/11

We have rain in the Valley of the Sun today. It dropped the temp about 20 degree's. Once it started raining the windows in the Dog Wash fogged up. I did manage to get this really cool picture on the first try. I tried some more after it and timing wasn't on my side. Enjoy!

2/18/11

I was at the Dog Wash today and couldn't believe how pretty the Lantana looked. I couldn't help myself. I had to snap a picture. Such happy colors. Enjoy!

2/17/11

I like to call this picture Angry Cactus! Look at those needles. This is not my friend. Enjoy!

2/16/11

We went to the Park Of The Canals today to see is spring has sprung. As it turns out it has begun. Here is a picture of a cactus with it's pretty yellow flowers. A purple flower has sprung up between the harshness of tehe cactus. Enjoy!

2/15/11

This is one of the crusty toads Don got me for Valentine's Day. Isn't it cute? Enjoy

2/14/11

We had the best Valentine's day. It was perfect weather. We had a nice dinner together. We exchanged gifts. Valentine's Day isn't a big holiday for us. We do cheesy gifts. Our first Valentine's Day I had requested a potato peeler. From then on it has been tradition. While all my friends get roses I get "Cheese" and love it. This year I didn't receive a lot of cheese though. I got to small crusty frogs for our courtyard and a stuffed dog. But, my biggest surprise was the Fire Stick Succulent. Our courtyard is looking so amazing with all our plants. (Thanks Suzanne) The cold weather we have experienced really hasn't helped but the heat will soon be here. Today's picture is of my newest plant from the top. I love it and hope you do to. Enjoy!

Oh yeah did I forget to mention we had the doors and windows open till almost 7pm. Love this weather!

2/13/11

After having a wonderful day with my hubby (now that we are both getting over the crud) we came home to the most beautiful sunset. Enjoy!

2/12/11

Yesterday was the first day in awhile I needed to be at the Dog Wash. As you can see Coop feels at home on the front desk, while waiting for customers to come and go. Enjoy!

2/11/11

Desert blooms. I find this plant to be so pretty. Enjoy!

2/10/11

We were walking one afternoon and came across this sign. Only in Az! Enjoy!

While I have been sick I started a new project. Knitting a blanket for my Niece. Hopefully I will have finished it before she graduates from college. ha. Enjoy!

2/8/11

I had a really bad cold this past week and had very little energy. This explains how I got behind on my blog. While I was taking it easy so was Knuckles. He didin't really seem to miss me. ha ha. Enjoy.

2/7/11

I know I said I wouldn't be posting too many dog pictures. But, I was away for 2 weeks. I really missed my babies. Coop didn't eat for 4 days. He wouldn't even get out of his bed to visit Don. Here is a picture of Coop with his attitude. Thankfully we are over that. Enjoy!

2/6/11

This is how a husband should look when you come home from a 2 week long trip. Enjoy!
