Birds of a Feather

As the birds are flying everywhere in our neighborhood looking for food (I guess I see them better with out leaves on the trees) this video is very intriguing to me...

My Aunt was visiting recently and she captured her perspective of the birds also.

57 YEARS of LOVE

11-03-51 was that date for a very special couple - my MOM & DAD... Happy Anniversary to you both. I love you so much and hope I can look as great as you when I am your age. Keep smiling as it is contagious. Hugs to you both, Karen

Tagged

I was tagged by Katrina to post the 4th picture from the 4th file on my computer....
Walt was checking out a role of wire his son Bill was going to use in the remodel of his new house. It just so happened to be down a flight of rickety stairs.


Now I tag Connie, Rachel and Angie

Thelma & Louise

AKA - the Golden Girls aka Mom & Auntie Erin - have arrived. It took them two days to drive to our place and they enjoyed the trip and each others company. We have been having way too much fun. Mom will be 80 this yr and Auntie Erin is 83 but they are real "go"ers. They have been a blast. Never a dull moment. Pics soon, but for now trust me. FUN is our word for the day.

Saturday doings

I can hardly wait. My Mom & my Aunt are expected to arrive in SLC either Sun or Monday. They are going to be here for a few days. We have been spiffing up the place somewhat for their visit. Walt & C spent the better part of the day working on a cover on the south side of the house (it covers the south window and the dog door). C also planted a Kousa Dogwood tree in the back yard. I cleaned inside and of course, supervised outside. hehehe

Fall Tasks

Fall has been keeping us busy this year. When checking on Connie's place, I found some rolls of sod that had been left behind after a construction project was completed. I snagged 5 rolls and C was able to fill in a spot in the yard that needed some help.

One of Walt's TO DO's is make sure all of the vehicles are ready for winter.. He checked the oil, the washer fluids and the antifreeze. Filled those that needed anything and in general just did what a lot of guys do - just look at the engine cause he thinks it's the manly thing to do. Besides, anymore, it's the only thing you can do - LOOK. Some of them are so complicated work on even if you can find what it is you need to fix.
We've been blessed with HUGE tomatoes in the past month. Only problem, we can't eat enough and this size don't last long just sitting around. I have made lots of sauce with some and we've had lots of tomato sandwiches. YUM. But I'm affraid with all the FREEZING temps we've had in the past couple of days, we are at the end of the toms. Till next year....
I can't believe that there are still sweet peas growing in the yard. They are one of my favorites as well as my Dad's and my sister-in-law Brenda's. If only our computer had scratch and sniff. They smell so good.
