This is one of the three deer ( I call them the Three Stooges ) that come through the yard almost every day – morning and evening. Tonight I noticed them all up close to the house digging through the partially melted snow. The sun was getting ready to go...

L.B. in his new hoodie. He really doesn’t like wearing sweaters – knit or fleece – which baffles me because he’s always cold. I think maybe they make him itchy because he likes his cotton Halloween t-shirt. When it’s really cold I put...

Maybe that little snowman that I keep overlooking on top of the kitchen cabinets is what is preventing spring from arriving. But he’s so cute! So is the rooster, which is actually a watering can and has a matching hen on the other side of the cabinets....

Laila is already six months old – where does the time go?! But just look at those beautiful blue eyes! She’s growing so fast. We got a chance to see her on Sunday while visiting with Jason’s family for an afternoon lunch. She’s a happy,...

Today was BEAUTIFUL! The sun was out, the birds were chirping, the snow was all melted and it was a bit over 60 warm degrees! After doing some shopping I took advantage of the warm afternoon sun on the back upper deck to do some reading with a cold beverage. The dogs...

One year ago today L.B. joined our family. He was then known as “Spartacus” which did not suit him at all ( nor did he know that was his name ). They were guessing he was about three years old, so today would make it his 4th birthday since we tend to...

Today got up to a balmy 60 degrees so I skipped out of work a bit early and opened up the camper. At the end of last season, from our single trip we made, it was quite a mess. We’ve purchased a lot of items for the camper and they all just kind of got thrown...

As promised, my new Samsung NX300 arrived today. I haven’t messed with it too much, but so far so good. The fur kids opted to model for me ( not so willingly, but they did ). It’s very fast, so fast that I can even get a photo of Lois Lane with the...

I know this is sort of cheating for my Project 365, but it was late and I couldn’t find anything interesting around the house – plus I’m SUPER excited that this is in transit! It’s the Samsung NX300 mirrorless digital camera with an 18 –...
