Hello!

If you're visiting me here I've moved to here. Check out the awsome blog that Mike P. built for me! I promise to keep this blog up to date and I'm starting with the story of how I met DH and why I love all things Paris and Cowgirl!

Here's a visitor I am NOT excited about!

And I don't think he's very happy. It looks like his tail got run over. Why didn't they aim for his head. They say he's a bull snake and not a rattler. I don't care what he is...he's five feet long and he's a snake!

A new visitor...

This is who came to visit this morning. He is tiny and beautiful! I think it's a he. Aren't the males the gender that has all of the color? I really need to get out the bird book!

The weather in Arizona...

is absolutely gorgeous! I decided since it was so nice that I would get a hummingbird feeder for the backyard and sit outside to enjoy this beautiful day that we are having. In the 9 years that we have lived here I don't think it's ever been 83 degrees at the end of May. Need to soak it up and remember this come July.

No sooner did the feeder go up than I got a visit from this little guy.


Then he sat in the tree above me for quite awhile. I've never seen a hummingbird sit still for this long!

We get lots of birds in our backyard. I wish I could record the sound for you and I wish I knew what all of those birds were saying to each other!
We have lots of dove...

And a not so good picture of another bird we have alot of. They are pitch black and have bright yellow bills.



And, of course, I was joined by my constant companion, good ol Maverick. He's really been slowing down but he was checked by the vet who says his heart is still good and he can keep taking his pills for sore joints!


Here's to beautiful weather and great companions!

Been busy...

Playing with these two! Enjoying beautiful weather, High in the 60's and some rain on and off. Papa and Grammy got them a truck to drive and they are having the time of their lives. Dylan is a very cautious driver. Mason still needs alot of practice.

Lots of pictures to post. The drive here was beautiful. We took our time getting here and hit alot of Antique stores. Of course we are coming home with a truck full! Will post more later. Dylan is driving the little girl next door around in his truck. Out on a date already!

I haven't blogged in forever! But, things are going to change. The great Mike P. and I got together yesterday and came up with ideas for a banner and a new blog name. This one really suits me and since I know I will love looking at it I'm sure I'll be posting regularly. And, since I'm on my way to Colorado to visit grandbabies there'll be lots of pictures! Happy Mother's Day everyone! I'm off for a week of Grammy heaven!
