An Autumn Hike

Autumn Is Finally Here......

Ambrose and I went on a lovely autumn walk and came upon this lovely butterfly. 

The Beauty of Autumn

Beautiful Sunrise

Alaska

A friend of mine is visiting Alaska and sent the following picture which I thought you might like to see.

Lots of Rain!

 

I don't know about you but we seem to be having heavy rain every few days. It is gorgeous!

Snow Day!

He loves to eat snow

It Came Back......

Poison Ivy is not my friend....

Getting Ready for Him....

Doesn't that bed look comfy?

We bought this gate which allows for plenty of room so we don't have to crate him during work hours.

So sophisticated!

Ummmmm.....

I would like you to meet Anselm!

Within 24 hours of coming home- he made a bubble nest!

Don't worry! Aloysius is still King of the Roost!

Look at that majestic glory!

Our pretty Annabella swims around like a crazy girl!

Don't you love her blue fins?

WOAH MAMA!

SNAKE!

Check out the defensive coil while sitting in the tree.

The snake actually journeyed to the roof of our home!

Luckily, he went back into the woods.

Friday's Favorites: A Happy Fish

Male Betta fish will build a bubble nest when they are happy and open to mating. The bubbles would actually hold fertilized eggs should he successfully mate. Pretty cool, eh?

Snowed In!

My employer chose to close the company for the day due to all the snow and ice.

This isn't great for business, but a wonderful little vacation day for an employee!

What does one do with an unexpected day off?  Here are a few things!

As stated in my 2014 update, I finished a book:

I washed, folded and ironed various articles of clothing: 

I practiced my choral music: 

I went outside a lot to look at the snow:

Snow!

Amber the Mommy Spider!

Who's that lady?

Amber!

And she is a mama!

I am amazed at this egg sac! 

No, dear sister- you don't need to look at these pictures... I thought the kids might like to see these!

One of the workers freaked out when he saw this spider- he was amazed at her size!
