What a Pleasure!!


It was a pleasure to meet up with a table of Canadian friends at the Paradise Bakery in Surprise after an already wonderful day! Who knows what a day will bring forth! We had a wonderful evening discussing different ones we all knew. It was so encouraging and uplifting! Thanks, friends!!

Rainbow!



It was a breath-taking sky as we came home from El Mirage the other evening! The rainbow always reminds of God's promise that He would not destroy the earth with a flood again!

Fun Pillowcase!


Neil rides the unicycle, so this seemed appropriate!! The others all ride it, too!

Shopping in North Phoenix!



We had a fun day shopping, and eating our lunch outside! We even had some beautiful dogs near by!

Palm Tree Plantings!






The tree in the front yard fell over so we planted a palm tree in it's place. The back yard has nothing so we put a tree in the back yard...we have another one to plant in the opposite corner.

A New Toy!!

Snow!

I wish I could have gotten a picture of the snow on the Superstitions and the higher mountains beyond. It was oh so beautiful. Just so glad it was on the mountains and not on the valley floor!! I love snow, but from the window of my cozy house!! We had frost down here, tho.

Pillow Case Making!!



Finally got these pillow cases made for the grandkids. The purple ones will be for us...I have a quilt to go with them. I have been trying to sew a quilt for over a year and a half...so hope to cut one out soon. I thought in retirement we'd have more time, but we haven't found the time yet. Guess who the froggy pillowcase if for???? It is for Lenore...she loves froggies.

Sun Reflecting on the Superstitions!


I tried to capture the beautiful picture of the sun reflecting on the mountains!
