Daydream Believer...

I was on my way home after driving Jeff to work and this song came on the radio.

 I thought it summed up my day perfectly.  

(Besides Davy Jones is an awesome dancer!)

Have a great Saturday!

Vacation State of Mind...

Call it the winter blues or spring fever but, I woke up feeling like I need a vacation and this is where I want to be, at the ocean.
Monterey was our last vacation. Sometimes I just hear the ocean
calling to me...

Sunset...Arizona style

Can you stand yet another sunset picture?  

The sky was so gorgeous last night, it looked like someone painted it.  

I couldn't resist running in to grab my camera and catch these beautiful shots. 

This was around 6:30 last night, it was probably about 74 degrees outside.

Pony Tricks

Grandson still loves to ride on his rocking horse only now he is into doing tricks!

Grandson Home Sick

Grandson stayed home sick today.
I am babysitting while his mom runs errands.
Here he is taking his breathing treatment for
his asthma. Doesn't seem to be slowing him down!

Quiet Sunday Morning...

It is a quiet Sunday morning.  We have already walked the dogs, fed the dogs, been to church, had breakfast, all dishes are done.  We have the laundry finished and purchased all the groceries for next week.  Now is time to relax to "The Sounds of Silence".

I wanted to put the Sounds of Silence video here, but for unknown reasons, I couldn't get blogger to paste it in. But I was able to link to it. Enjoy!

Arizona Sunset

I have lived in Arizona nearly all my life.  The one thing that I will never get tired of is the gorgeous sunsets we are so blessed with.  After spending most of the day fighting off an annoying headache I took a break and went outside to take a look to the West.  The sunset last night had the most gorgeous soft pastel colors, so relaxing.  

Bear and Boston

Bear and Boston have become great friends. 

Bear likes to herd Boston around the yard, when

Boston is tired and lies down Bear guards over him.

New Dog in Town...

My daughter Jules, who is living with us right now brought her baby dog, "Boston" the Boston Terrier to live here too!

He is so cute and thinks he is a big dog.  Look at the size of the bone he has!

By the way I did make it through the laundry room, it took me all day, I didn't get lost and I have a lot more room in there.  Two very large boxes of stuff went home with my Dad for his yard sale coming up in a week or two!  This weekend another room gets to be cleaned out, oh boy! I can hardly wait.

Monday...President's Day

Today is President's Day. I am going to spend it wisely, cleaning out my laundry room. My laundry room has become a catch-all for the things I simply must keep but don't have any other place to put them. I'll be back tomorrow with a much more interesting subject, that is if I don't get lost in the laundry room.

Happy Valentine's Day...

My Dogs and I wish you a very Happy & Sweet Valentine's Day!

Friday the Thirteenth...The Mighty Thor!

It is the first Friday the 13th out of three this year, there is one in March and another in November. (The fear of Friday the 13th is called paraskavedekatriaphobia). I'm not really very superstitious and I don't believe in bad luck. What I do believe is that we all make our own luck.
While I was looking around for something fitting to post for this special day, I ran across this awesome clip from the 1987 movie Adventures in Babysitting. Vincent D'Onofrio as Thor! This seemed like a fitting Friday the 13th post! Have a great day, and please remember to avoid black cats and don't walk under any ladders...if you are into scary sort of stuff go see the new Friday the 13th Movie...personally, I'll pass.

Who is it?

It's Bear! Peeking out of the back yard.
I went out the side door to take the trash out and
Bear looks through the gate with the look
"Come Play With Me, it will be Fun!"

3-D Glasses...

Jules took Ethan to the movies on Sunday and snapped this picture of him before the movie started.
The movie was Coraline in 3-D, she said the glasses didn't stay on long, the movie was a little scary!
Judge for yourself, to me it looks a little creepy.

Cloudy Monday...

It is cold and cloudy here again today. Last night there was the most gorgeous sunset after it had rained most of the day.
I took these pictures from my front yard one facing west and one facing east. You can see the moon peeking out from behind the clouds in the picture facing east.
Happy Monday to all!!Sunset 2/8~facing west.

Sunset 2/8~facing east.

Cold, Rainy Day...

It is dreary, cold and rainy.
Here is a little SNL skit to cheer you up!

Fowers for Grandma...

Grandson went over to the park
to play this morning and came home
with flowers for his grandma.

Even though they were weeds,
I told him how much I loved them,
put them in water and put them on the table.

Empty...

That is how it felt last night and this morning.
Jules and Ethan spent the night in other places last night.
They have been living here for almost a month and it brings me joy and happiness to have them here. They sit at the table and do homework while I make dinner, I can't wait until they get home tonight!

The Kinks...A Favorite

Baby Shower

Saturday was my Daughter-In-Law, Jenn's baby shower. We had so much fun and she got all kinds of gifts. One was a hand knitted teddy bear made by her sister-in -law...so cute!!Looks like Jenn is ready for a nap!

The baby is due March 16, I am thinking she is barely going to make it to the end of February.
Maybe I am just too excited, I can't wait to be a Grandma again. It will be Jenn's Mom's first Grandchild and I know she is super excited. I think this baby will be spoiled by Grandmas.

New Shoes...

Happy Monday to everyone. It was a busy weekend. Friday evening Ethan came home all excited with new shoes. I asked him to let me take a picture of the shoes and he plopped down in the chair and stuck his feet in the air. The picture turned out so cute:

These shoes are the cutest, Marvel Cartoon Super hero shoes.

I want some shoes like this. Doesn't everyone?!
