The Little Herd

Posted in Family

Project 365 – #252 The little squeaks are growing quickly. It’s hard to believe they’re almost a week old. It looks like we have 2 females and 1 male, but we’ll need to confirm that in about 2 weeks when it’s time to remove the males from the females. They’re so cute as they follow each other in a little herd. Choco, the papa, is allowed in with them for closely supervised visits as he is a bit lonely, and he loves being with his family. Rosita is doing a great job as a mama; she takes care of the…

Power Outage

Posted in Family, and Photography

Project 365 – #251 What do you do when a power outage comes along – a huge outage that covers southern Arizona and southern California and parts of northern Mexico? Well, first you pray that it doesn’t stay off very long as it’s really hot outside, and you have lots of food in the fridge & freezer that you don’t want to go bad. Then, you try to find out what caused the outage and how long it’s suppose to stay out. If you’re a kid, you have fun playing with cute guinea pigs, and you learn that constantly going…

Reading on the Go

Project 365 – #250 Yes, I still very much like the feel of a book in my hands. I like being able to physically turn the pages and quickly flip to my favorite passages. Yet, I do like the ease of being able to slip a multitude of books into my purse in the form of my Kindle. I can take my Bible and devotional with me as well as several different books without the weight and bulk of carrying all of these things. I’m so torn between the old fashioned way of reading and the digital age. I don’t…

Review and Giveaway: Theo Presents dvd

Posted in Reviews

Theo Presents is an all new animated video series from the same man, Michael Joens, who brought to you animated favorites such as McGee and Me and Adventures in Odyssey. Mike created the concept of Theo back in 1978, but the Lord wasn’t ready to open the door for it’s production until now. One little tidbit that I found interesting is that Mike is a former Marine who ended up in the animation industry after attending Bible college. He worked for several big name companies such as Marvel Productions, Warner Brothers, and Hanna Barbera Studios before starting his own animation…

Just Visiting

Posted in Family

Project 365 – #249 When you have newborns in the house (whether human or otherwise), visitors are never far behind. Munchkin and her friend are very much enjoying spending time with the babies. They still like to hide a good bit of the time, but if you just spend some time in their cage, they will apparently come out to play. (The lighting on the picture above is off, but I still like it as it captures the moment.) Me? Well, I’d rather not get in the cage. lol! I just get to see them whenever they come out or…
