Just a little tour of our house decorated for Christmas: It’s funny what you see when you photograph or video tape your house. It probably looks a little cluttered to some of you. Part of that will be gone when I put away the decorations but the truth is that, despite the fact I like…
Photo-A-Day Challenge: Day 30 “Your Winter Wonderland”
We got snow (and sleet and ice) on Christmas day and before it could all melt, we got more (rather unexpectedly!) on Friday. Shiloh was absolutely nuts about it. His people? Not so much. The cats weren’t impressed, either. This is Elizabeth, or “Lizzie”. She came out with me while I walked Shiloh but she…
Photo-A-Day Challenge: Day 27 “Night Time”
We always leave up our tree until Chris’ birthday on January 10th. I’m always a little taken aback when I hear that someone has taken their tree down on Christmas day or the day after. I mean, to each his own but I enjoy the tree and decorations most during the week or two following…
Photo-A-Day Challenge: Day 23 “Scarf”
That’s my scarf but doesn’t it look cute on Shiloh? By the way, David and Chris went to the Saints vs. Cowboys game in Texas today and the Saints won in overtime. Who dat!
Photo-A-Day Challenge: Day 7 “Bright”
The bright glow of fire. I’ve been wanting to toast marshmallows and make s’mores for weeks and we just never seemed to get around to it. Our temperatures are supposed to take a nose-dive later this weekend so I figured now was our chance. We have a burn pit where David tosses wood and branches….
30 Days of Thankfulness: Day 28
I am so thankful for our Shiloh. He is the sweetest, gentlest, calmest dog we’ve ever had. He’s also very well-behaved – other than occasionally getting on the sofa. 😉 Isn’t he cute?: Such a funny boy: If you’d like to follow him on Facebook, just click here.
31 Days of Autumn Nesting: Day 21 – Taking a break
When I started this series I hadn’t really considered the fact that we would be leaving for New Orleans on the 25th. And then I had this notion that I could write extra posts and schedule them to post each day while I’m gone. As they say, the best laid plans of mice and men……
31 Days of Autumn Nesting: Day 20 – Rocking the Porch Time
David is away on a business trip and I miss him terribly. However, I’m learning to make the best of these times. The weather is absolutely perfect tonight so I spent the evening on the porch, hanging out with Shiloh and watching our dear friends, Debi and the Deacons, performing in New Orleans via webcam….
31 Days of Autumn Nesting: Day 13 – Pumpkins and Friends
I bought some little pumpkins at Whole Foods recently. Don’t they make a nice addition to the autumn decor on our entry table? And just because they are adorable: Shiloh with his best buddy, Steinbeck
