All Good Stuff ..

Our #1 Grandson won 3rd place overall at the Pinewood Derby ~ and was voted the Racers Favorite Car!  Two trophies for him today .. Papa and Gran could not be more proud of our young man.



Is everybody getting killed by allergies?  I can't spend much time outside and the beautiful weather is calling me.  The daffodils are beautiful, the grape hyacinth smells sweet, the lilac bushes are starting to get their pretty on and here I am inside looking out.

These daffodils are looking down for some reason ... still beautiful tho!



Grape Hyacinth are happy .. these are always the first to come out.  Maybe they like that whiskey barrel.






These are tulips ~ getting all ready for their special show!



Had a quick but rather awesome time with 3 of our children in CA.  Spent some time visiting and catching up on life.  Walked on the beautiful Redondo Beach and did a little shopping on the pier.  Had a blast at the San Diego Safari Park.

The kiddos ~ 3 and a son-in-law on the far left!



This kitty was not happy with his life .. paced back and forth over and over.  :(



Birdie hitchhiker ... wanted to escape with us.



This giraffe found munchies high on top of a rock wall.  Pretty clever.


Wherever you are, whoever you are with, I hope life is happy and going your way.  Don't forget to count your blessings ~ every single day.

Thanks for stopping by.

Life

Thank you to our precious Abby Girl ~ for being such a special part of our lives.  She was the perfect blend of naughty and nice.  There was never a dull moment with her.
She is resting in peace now and without pain. 

Our Special Abby Girl

Hubs and I took a cruise up to Greer last weekend!  We were happy to have our camera ~ lots of animals both big and small to enjoy.  Being born in AZ and living here almost all our lives we have the privilege of seeing lots of animals.  But never .. not even once .. have we seen Big Horn Sheep.  Until now ~ check this out.





On our way back home we saw these ladies and gents again ~ this time they were crossing the road.  I guess heading back home for the evening.

These beautiful antelope were grazing lazily ~ some napping.  Such special animals we enjoy here in the wild wild west.




Papa and I had the pleasure of our #4 granddaughter's visit a few weeks ago!  We had her for a week and such a busy week it was ~ baking cookies, coloring princesses, painting many pictures and watching "Kipper" our favorite cartoon!  Check it out sometime ~ promise you won't be disappointed.

Her and Gran had beauty parlor time.  She wanted pretty hair with hot rollers ~ I think she looks pretty!   Didn't last long after we ran and played on the swings and fun slides at the park, but fun for awhile.




Make it a special day .. and remember the 7 Cardinal Rules For Life!
