New Furniture

  • We *finally* got our kitchen table and chairs. I recovered them to match the barstools. The bedroom set is all wood, dovetail constructed drawers and king size :) We had to get all new bedding and everything is soft and fluffy and feathered. The stainless pots and pans plus industrial rack are Larry's Christmas gifts. He did a great job getting the rack hung too.

Mexico Getaway

  • P1010039
    Every year we make a trip to La Salina, Mexico with a group of friends. The resort is not very fancy at all and it is just so relaxing to have a few days makeup free, dressed down and laid back with a cold Corona and good, authentic Mexican food.

New House

    This is our new little casa out at the base of the Sierra Estrella mountains. Once we have the boxes unpacked and the furniture all in place, we will take more pics.

Viva Las Vegas

  • P1010088
    I got to go to Vegas for business this past week and smuggled Larry with me. It was about $20 cheaper to drive so I used the airfare money for my ticket for gas and got the pleasure of Larry's company and help with driving. One perk of the company I am with, they spare no expense in rooms. These are pics of our suite at THEhotel at Mandalay Bay plus some pics of very talented bartendars at Carnival just outside of Harrahs. Also, the lovely evening skyline view is from a bathroom stall, yes a STALL in the swanky restroom of THEMix, a lounge at the top of THEhotel. I have never wanted to just hang out in a bathroom before. It was awesome.

dads birthday

    I got to go home and see the folks for dads birthday. These are from that day from mom making him breakfast in bed, to he and Terry being masterbasters ;)

New Rooms

  • P1010011
    Pics of our new, swanky party room (complete with bar and dart board) and theater room. Oh and Squeak being weird and hiding in the pillowcase.

Doves

  • Img_1400
    This spring we had a pair of Mourning Doves that raised 5 clutches of babies just outside our kitchen window. They grew so fast and although I always wanted to get pictures of them, it wasn't until their last clutch that we actually snapped some good ones. The pics you see here are about a week before the babies flew up to just a couple of days before they did. The daddy is the only adult male pictured. I got a few pics of the mama but, they were blurry to post. Daddy always had the day shift while the mama had night time. If you ever get a chance to read up on Mourning Doves you should. They are quite interesting creatures.

Lightening

  • Img_9640
    During a recent monsoon, Larry braved the elements (and my rath for being out in bad weather) and got some pretty cool pictures of the lightening.

Big Fork, Montana

    Our trip to Big Fork, Montana for White Water Days.

Glacier National Park

    Our trip to Glacier Park. That was the most awesome, I feel close to God, trip ever. These are just the pics from the little camera.

Lightning and Midori green

I uploaded some pics Larry took of a lightning storm we had not long ago. I was not too happy about him standing outside in the backyard with his camera and a metal tripod during all of this but, he survived and got some pretty cool pictures.

I also uploaded pics of our finished 'party' room complete with repainted, garage sale hand chairs and our garage sale bar and barstools. Thanks to mom for helping make the throw pillows (wasn't that fun?) and our new 'theater' room with freshly painted Midori Green walls and brown velvet curtains. The micro suede couch reclines on one end and the end with the chaise lounger reclines back as well. Once we get some vintage movie posters up on the wall, it is going to be the cats meow.

Shutterfly

I finally got just about all of the Montana pics uploaded to Shutterfly.com. Good grief! 769 images! Since I highly doubt that Typepad will let me host all those images for you, I found a nice little gallery program that I will most likely use to make some galleries and then just post the links. I tell ya what though. We got some gorgeous pictures. I already have plans to turn some of them into sepia tone 11x14 pics and frame them for the upstairs bathroom. More will go in the guest room and our bedroom.

If you have digital images and want a way to store them and get prints made, check out shutterfly.com. They even do calendars ;)
