Banjo

This is our new puppy, Banjo! He is an 11 week old Australian Shepherd/Bue Heeler mix. Birdy and I rescued him from a shelter down in Arkansas and had him transported up here. He is the best little guy! Full of energy and a big snuggler. He is a great addition to our Family!

An Eye for Beauty

This post is inspired by my younger cousin, Ali. She is so talented and so passionate - she is an inspiration. And she isn't even old enough to drive. I was taking a look at her personal photography and I was blown away. She has a real eye for beauty and can take a beautiful photo. What's even better is that she is self-taught. Here is a sample of her photography. If you like what you see, check out her flickr site.
Enjoy!

Botanical Bliss

Now that spring has finally come - despite the few random snow flurries around Burlington - Birdy and I spruced up our apartment with some colorful, cheery flowers:

Red Pincushion Protea Flower

 
 Pink and White Lilies
 
Purple and Orange Peruvian Lilies
