Life from where we are

 Mark & LiLi have been very busy the last couple weeks  They made this bench for the front porch. LiLi helped make the whole thing from drilling the holes to sanding & staining it  They also made this table  The bench was not light so there will be no moving it!  The "Motley Crew"  Bernie adores Popster Love

 She dresses like this........  ........but she plays like this  We do try girly things like cat's cradle  Her own version that is judging by the look on Jessie's face! Love

 We had another week of the craziest weather......about 5 inches of snow on Monday  Cold Tues & Weds  Thursday the temps warmed up to around 50 degs with storms around.  A storm hit around 3:30pm with the worst winds.....scary!  It sounded like it was raining branches on our roof.  Lot of damage with trees uprooted & down on houses....right on the next street.  We lost power for several hours & are still doing clean up from the branches  The birds were so hungry......I have been trying forever to get some shots of these little guys  They usually grab some seed & fly away but for once they sat & posed for me  I have had an amazing number of finches this year  They always come in bunches & squabble over the perches  I don't know if they're fighting or feeding each other Love

 We headed to the park Sunday after the "snow storm"    As you can see there really wasn't much on the ground  There were green buds  ......with a snowy background  Strange clouds  More trees trying to bloom  More strange clouds & last of all this "floppy-eared" dog doing her best imitation of a "spring fling"! Love

 This is what we woke up to Sunday morning  This robin is trying to find some "crumbs" I left behind after filling the feeders  This is just a tease.....the real snow came on Monday when we had the biggest storm of the season......around 4-1/2 inches Love
