Doggy Boots

Posted in Family, Outdoor Adventures, and Photography

Project 365 – #192 For the record, I’m not normally one to get my pets their own clothing, but sometimes, it becomes a matter of necessity….  Now, occasionally, “puppy” will be given a costume by Munchkin, but he doesn’t usually get his own clothing. On the 4th of July weekend, we decided to go out exploring a little.  (More about that with pictures at a later date….)  At one point, we all got out to go look at some cool rock formations.  “Puppy” wanted to get out with us.  Keep in mind that we’re in the Az desert, and it’s…

Joy of the Redeemed

Posted in Christian Life, and Photography

Project 365 – #191 The wilderness and the dry land shall be glad; the desert shall rejoice and blossom like the crocus; it shall blossom abundantly and rejoice with joy and singing. The glory of Lebanon shall be given to it, the majesty of Carmel and Sharon. They shall see the glory of the LORD, the majesty of our God. Strengthen the weak hands, and make firm the feeble knees. Say to those who have an anxious heart, “Be strong; fear not! Behold, your God will come with vengeance, with the recompense of God. He will come and save you.”…

Project 365 – #190 We picked up some delicious cherries at Walmart today, so I thought I would use some of the chocolate mousse that I had made up from the previous day with the cherries to create a parfait.  It was such a big hit that we’ve gone through almost of the cherries that just purchased.  (Note: this batch of mousse did not set up like usual for whatever the reason, so it isn’t as fluffy as normal.  At least it still tasted delicious. lol!) Gluten Free Chocolate Mousse Recipe Ingredients: 1/2 C heavy whipping cream 1 tsp pure…

Hearty Breakfast

Posted in Gluten Free, Homemaking, and Photography

Project 365 – #189 Yet another hearty breakfast for my Marine.  He loves to start his day with a solid breakfast.  It doesn’t always happen, but it’s definitely what he prefers.  Me?  I’d be happy with a muffin or breakfast bar.  😉  Munchkin likes a wide assortment of items for breakfast – as long as mommy gets them for her.  lol! Sorry I’m so late in posting today.  It’s been a long day of working on the computer and blog.  I have a love – hate relationship with technology….

Making Memories

Posted in Family, and Photography

Project 365 – #188 photo by Munchkin I think it’s easy to get caught up in the gotta spend money to have a good vacation mentality, but the reality is that some of the most memorable times (at least for us) cost the least amount of money.  We love being able to head out into the desert and explore.  The only cost to us is the cost of the fuel to get there and back.  The memories that we create are priceless.  Normally, it’s quality family time without lots of distractions.  It means that we have plenty of time to…
