So Sleepy

I was in the process of changing the sheets when Lilly decided that she just had to have a nap.

It’s been a long sad day

Petey and Lilly checking out the view from the living room window.  There are always good things to see.

Big Year

Big Year is the title of a movie I just watched.  I has Steve Martin, Jack Black, Owen Wilson and a bunch of other wonderful actors in it.  It is about a competition among birders to see who can see or hear the largest number of birds in one year.  Even if you aren’t that into birds or birding, it is a good heartfelt movie, and I highly recommend it.

In the spirit of that movie, here are two birds in my birdbath….a male cardinal and a male dark eyed junko.

Sunday Brunch

Sunday, Glen and I finally had some time together….before I had to go to work.  Since we love cooking together we decided to try out a new recipe, that we only sort of followed.  We made baked cheddar eggs and potatoes, courtesy of Taste of Home magazine. 

First we sauteed onion, garlic and jalapeno pepper in some olive oil.  Then we added frozen hash-browns and cooked them until they were almost done.

Image

Then we stirred in some bacon…..because bacon make everything better!

Image

We made little pockets in the hash-browns and cracked the eggs into them.

Image

We put the whole thing in the oven and baked it for about 10 minutes when we then put cheese on top and put it back in the oven to melt.

Image

We finished it off with fresh chopped tomato, green onion and cilatro.  We baked it a little too long because the yolks were hard, but it didn’t matter, it was still fantastic.

What Goes On When I’m At Work

Image

I have been on the evening shift for the last five weeks.  So, Glen has had to bear sole responsibility for all the critter cuddling.  Tough job 🙂

A Fun Day with Family, Friends and Guns

Last Saturday we had friends and family over for some target shooting.

Image

Here is George looking all cool with his dads .357.

Image

Joyce was talked into shooting the .357 by her husband…..

Image

Joyce:  That was totally awesome!!

Image

Katie taking aim and annihilating the targets.

Image

Glen:  I love shooting guns!

Bravery

After a couple of days of having company during the Thanksgiving holiday, Eva got brave and decided to visit Katie and check out the view from her shoulder.  They were both very impressed with each other :o)

A Note From Abroad

“Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn’t do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sailaway from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.” ~ Mark Twain
