Just catching up

Haven't checked in lately.  The camera is broken so no pics.  Things are going well.  Spring is moving into summer and the fields are covered in yellow daisies like flowers.  The antelope have had their babies an we can watch them out back.

Hubby traded the vette for a Harley, really pretty and it fits me...hmmmm.  He's my hero for getting Air Gas to do the right thing and getting us a fair price for our gas and correcting past mistakes with our account.  So now I can get back to doing more glass (hard to do much when they jump your price from $18-$48 overnight).

Saphira is growing like a weed and is now bigger than the schnauzers.

Hope your Summer is safe and happy.

The blue Dragon

Of course a picture of Saphira and some glass.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I took a glass class this week end with Suellen Fowler. She is a wonderful artist and teacher. Here is the top of a wine stopper I made with some things I learned in her class.

old video of tornado
One of the NCO's I worked with at McConnell AFB in the 90's found this. The video was shot from a dorm on base.  It turned into a F5 and killed 28 people off base.  It hit at 6:30 on a Friday night.   The damage was horrible and surreal.  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I2qf7Re0K8E     odd to watch it again.

Another year...

Another year has gone by

Well a lot has happened in the the last year, we've moved and started new jobs.  Still working on meeting new friends here and building a network up.

We are loving our new town.  The AF has moved me around a lot and this has to be one of my favorite places.  Hubby took me out for a birthday dinner at my favorite Italian restaurant.

We have been very blessed and are thankful everyday for where we are in our lives.

Almost forgot!  Hubby got two more truck loads of rocks/boulders!!  Guess what we will be doing this weekend? Well if it isn't snowing...LOL 

Friday WooHoo!
not much to say, but man I'm happy it is Friday.  Was a long week and lot to do tomorrow, just running around.  Hope to do some glass Sunday.  Hope eveyone has a great weekend.

rocks and visitors

Well we spent the day moving rocks and lots of soil.  Had some watchers while we were out.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Once it warms up we will plant the fill areas betwen the rocks with high desert native plants.  The inside area will be a flagstone patio.

The watchers...

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Have a great day.

 Not much going on here.  Repacing the carpet in the house with wood and starting to work some hard-scap projects outside so we can be ready to plant come spring. 

 

Heading home

I head back to Colorado tomorrow after a great visit to FL.  It was wonderful to see friends and family.

But have to admit it will be great to get back to my hubby and critters (who have been giving him fits since I left LOL).  I'll try to post some pictures once I get back and unpacked
