OUR NEW GRANDBABY HAS ARRIVED

Nadia Christine Victor arrived on Jan. 9th.  She weighed 7.14  and is 21" long.  Joy had a long hard labor of 34 hrs.  As of today, Nadia is still in the hospital because of inhaling mecomium and could have an infection. We pray that she will be going home on Thurs. Can't wait to see her.

Wow, the perfect Christmas card shot.  We got about 6" of snow last night.

Having our first snow of winter.  Jim decorated the courtyard this year.

Birds at our House

I finally got some good pictures of a flicker.  I think they are so colorful.  They love the suet feeder at our house and are always hanging around the bird feeder, but don't really go to it.  I always know fall has come when the flickers have arrived.

Christmas Tree Cutting

Christmas tree hunting in the Pecos Mtns.  Came across some turkeys in one location we were at.  We went to another location to find a tree.  Kinda of a tough road--completely 4 wheel drive.  We were in a canyon so had hills to the one side and drop off on the other.  You can see the boulder in the road, luckily we could go around it.  I thought our bodies would be sore the next day from all the rockin' in the truck on that road.  But all ok.

Dinner at Cassie's house

A night of a beautiful Santa Fe sunset.  Thought I would try some of the grasses that are so abundant around our house. 

We decided to try some morning glories on our porch in pots.  It's working out great, but sure could use some more trellis. I can also see them from my bedroom window in the morning.  I love morning glories.

Some of the beautiful summer flowers.  The roses this year have been prolific.  Guess it's been all the rain.  But, they are still blooming.  This is a French variety and has a great smell. I planted glads for the first time.  The color doesn't do it justice.  It's a beautiful deep maroon.

In Phoenix for my neice Brandie's Wedding

My niece Brandie's wedding.  Some shots of the family.  It was at a beautiful golf course in Phoenix.  What a lovely place and perfect weather.

Cactus and plants in My Dad's neighborhood

These are some of the cactus blooming in my Dad's neighborhood.  What beautiful cactus flowers.  The tall plant is an agave (century plant).  Gorgeous bloom, but they die after the bloom.  The bouganvilla was in full splendor all over Phx. Did you spot the hummingbird at one of the blooms?

Old Town Albuquerque

As Jim & I were heading home yesterday, we stopped at Old Town in Albuquerqe.  I might have been there about 30 years ago.  We were also by the Albuquerque Art Museum which is where a lot of the pictures came from. What a great bunch of architectural elements and textures.  My daughter Cassie would have loved these  and she could have spent hours here taking photos.
