A Little of This, A Little of That

I realized that I hadn't posted in awhile, and well.. I felt guilty.. so here are some pictures...

This is a picture of the snow we got the other day.. on our deck, I measured 3" at 4:30 pm.. it was still snowing hard, and I know that we had a lot more after that..

These are my orchid plant. I have had it for 18 years. My mom sent it to Pat and I for our 1st anniversary.. It was from the same grower who I got my wedding bouquet flowers from. I had over 100 phalaenopsis orchids in my bouquet. I am always excited when it blooms.. and the flowers last for a good 2 months or more. I am always amazed that it hasn't died in all this time, with all the moves and all.

As I was taking pictures of the orchid, Gretel the Greyhound was right there.. I think that she wanted her picture taken too.. so.. But look at her.. how cute can you be?? (I think that she wanted a treat really...)

Hannah and Pat playing Guitar Hero.. I think that Hannah won.. or at least gave Pat a run for his money..

Of course Gretel wanted her picture taken! I was taking pics of B & T for something about a week ago, and then I took one of Chaco, and so Colby came over and sat right in front of me and waved his paw at me until I took his picture, too. It was quite funny.

Awwww, Gretel....

*sniff*

No WAY can I ever let my kids see that picture. They'd fall apart, esp. since we are having to find homes for our current dogs soon.

She looks wonderful and is clearly very very very very happy!
