Snow! Snow! Snow!

Published by under ABQ

We’re only supposed to get an inch or two Friday, but since we haven’t had much moisture this year, Lisa and I will take any amount at this point. Besides, it’s the holiday season… who wouldn’t want snow, and tons of it!

Cinco Estrella

Lisa and I can’t remember the last time we had such tasty and hot roasted green chile like we picked up this year. Our only hope is that we bought enough to make it through the whole year this time — two 30 pound sacks. Our chile is from Lemitar, not Hatch like we normally get, and it’s been absolutely incredible. So so yummy.

Lake Tahoe

Published by under trips

I’ve finally found time to post some pics from our Lake Tahoe trip, here they are. The problem with digital cameras is you end up taking thousands of shots and have to sort through them all, and that takes time! That’s why they invented “blowing off class” to take care of such tasks.

.22 Inches

That’s how much rain Albuquerque has had since January. It’s been a miserable summer. It’s been very hot, upper 90s for about 2 months now. Windy, windy, windy. Fires everywhere. Here’s a shot of the Sandia Mountains from our backyard:

All that smoke… from Arizona no less (courtesy Wallow fire). More pics (click on them):

Our backyard looks like hell, everything is dying due to lack of water:

Well, tonight it finally rained, and not just a 5 minute New Mexico rain, but a good, soaking hour-long monsoon downpour:

Let’s hope we get more of this.

Good riddance, summer. Bring on the fall!

A very sad day

Published by under love,Puppy

Today we had to say a very tearful goodbye to a member of our family who also happens to be the subject of many posts on this website. Our baby Junior a.k.a. Puppy left our world today. At 16 years old, he was still our special baby. We’ve had a lot of tears today and will have more in the coming days. He was a constant in our lives and always welcomed us home every day with a bark and a tail that wagged all the time! We love you Junior!

Happy Mothers Day to me!

Published by under holidays,love,Mac

I got plenty of gifts this year like beautiful flowers, cute shoes, candles, Kohl’s cash, and sweet cards. The best gift of all is the time spent with these three! Michael and I miss having the girls around 24/7. Sounds crazy, but true. Even the iPad and Mercedes can’t make up for all the fun it is to be a mom!

Dust Storm

Published by under ABQ

What is worse than a lack of snow or rain in the past four months? The damn, incessant wind that blows and howls throughout New Mexico during Spring. It’s horrible.
