Meet Leo, my sister’s new puppy and the new love in my life.

Throwback Thursday
From our vacation in Washington last year. *Sigh* Just plunk me down in one of those chairs.
Food for Thought
What is a good day for you? I met a gentleman at a meeting today and this was the second question he asked after asking me what I do. What is a good work day for me? I stared at him blankly. I opened my mouth to answer the question, but no words came out….
Little Bit of This, Little Bit of That
Love these boys. They clean up pretty nice, huh? This was the result of a wedding this weekend. The below photo was a result of a long run yesterday that started at our local farmers market. With the amount of tax dollars we sink into our public schools, you’d never suspect that we’d be faced…
Little bit of MAGIC…
Beautiful setting…perfect weather…some seriously cute kids….a great day for Camp! Tanner and I got to volunteer at a one-day bereavement camp for children who have lost a loved one recently. It warmed the heart to see smiles on the faces of little ones who have had more to cry about than they deserve at their…
My Dog Sighs
Check out this video and article (click here). Sent to me by an old friend. Inspiring stuff on so many levels.
And then there were…
THREE! Check it out! Country Bear Jamboree now has a family!
Because…
…every Thursday morning should begin with a video of a kitten massaging a snoring pug.
It was a very good day…
A leisurely day spent with my boys is always a very good day. We wandered around the City Garden for a while… …and bonded with the sculptures. For the boys, this meant hugging, high-fiving and spooning. Plus a little bit of planking and mocking for good measure. We took in ice cream at this classic…
What do they call this?
Do they call this a doppelgänger? Seriously, could this cat look more like our Murphy?? And he’s just as lazy. Love, love this.
Take a moment…
… to cheer Chococat’s birthday! Many happy returns to my favorite Hello Kitty pal! (And special thanks to twitter, Facebook and Sanrio for this piece of uselessful trivia.) And if you don’t care for silent kitty cartoon friends, just take a moment to celebrate the arrival of the weekend. Pretty sure that we’ve all earned…
Endurance
A visit to the hospital with Drew yesterday brought an unexpected surprise: a small exhibit from one of my favorite artists installed in the lobby. I’ve collected several of his pieces over the years. His work is colorful, sentimental, whimsical, and downright funny. The hospital exhibit was part of a 365 project he took on….
Look what you can do…
…when yellow nature dust coats your car! You can make happy doodles because winter is finally outta here! (And you can pull the photo into an app on your phone and make it look really cool.) 80+ degrees today! (Okay, I know colder temps are headed our way, but I’m milking today and tomorrow for…
So I saw this yesterday…
And I had to pull over and take a video of it.
This and That
A few glimpses from an uneventful weekend. Ran through our downtown twice this weekend and had to give into photo temptation. First is was the lure of the hyacinth in the middle of a display at the Farmer’s Market. Then it was the whisper of these little guys peeking through a crack in a store…
Yep. I’m guilty.
A video sent to me by a sweet colleague and friend. It’s proved to be a lovely, valuable and necessary message that I’ve taken to heart.
Wandering…
…through the woods on a Wednesday. Little by little, green is peeking through.
Yesterday…
…I ran my first half marathon! Today, I took the day off and did a bunch of this. (Photo is a twitter find, no photo credit available. But this isn’t mine. Dog or photo.) Admittedly, I finished a little slower than I’d hoped, but I finished. I’m 42 years old, I’ve only been running for…
Hello, Friday…
It’s so good to see you.
It’s an Easter Egg Hunt!
And for the first time in years, Tanner and I got to go! Every year our church hosts a huge Easter Egg Hunt and this year pastor asked me to take photographs. Lucky me, Tanner offered to take my backup camera and help out! It’s been so long since I’ve had little ones, I’d forgotten…
Wait. What?
I just noticed that this blog post draft has been sitting around in cyber space quite a while. I confess I’ve not been on the ball lately. Just had to share a bumper sticker that my kids pointed out. (Of course I had to take us off course to follow this vehicle into a parking…
hey there, friends
