Sunny Monday

Hello and Happy Monday to you all.  I have lots and lots of pictures today.  I hope you don't mind too much.  

The first is my Hubby, Dennis with Nita.  They are by Larry & Nita's new, (to them) trailer.  I should have taken some inside photos for you.  This camper is a 2000 model and looks like new!  They got a great deal on it and the RV place even threw in an electric awning like ours.  Nita is so happy.

Dennis went and towed the trailer from the dealer to their driveway for them on Saturday since they don't have a tow vehicle.  Today I spent several hours carrying things from their motor home to the trailer for Nita since neither she or Larry can lift anything.  In April, Dennis will tow it out to the lake and it will be left there full-time, just like ours.  They'll keep the motor home for family reunions, etc.

A closer picture with Sophie in Nita's lap.

Dennis' pride and joy.  The trailer was the first "big" thing he's towed.  He's pulled a few friends boats but they were much smaller than the 29 foot trailer.  He was very happy with it's performance and is now ready to hook up our trailer and tow it around the country when he retires.

Mandy and Brad gave me an Amazon gift card for my birthday and this is some of what I bought.  6 of the new lavender color and 6 blue ball jars.  They are so pretty.  I'm going to be using them as drinking glasses both here and at the trailer this summer.

A closer picture.  The colors are beautiful.  Look at the sun shining through them.  I love sunshine!

I also bought a package of floral frogs that fit in canning jars.  I'm taking one to Mandy too.

It's just a little insert but it works well.  Also from Amazon I got some straws and lid/seals to use with canning jars and a travel pillow.  Yay!  This birthday just keeps going on and on.  :-)

  

With the money my mother-in-law sent to me I bought this metal container.....

and this smaller one from Hobby Lobby.  They keep the area around the kitchen sink nice and neat.  I just realized that it looks like we take lots of pills.  Those are all vitamins-one for Dennis and one for me. The jar has Chloe's fish oil pills that I give her twice a day in the winter.  It keeps her coat soft and relieves the winter dryness of her skin.  She used to scratch constantly in the winter and she very rarely scratches anymore.

It is 63 here today!  Unbelievable for February.  Look at the rhubarb!  It is going to be so confused when we get freezing temperatures again.

Mt. Spokane with the snow all melting.  Sorry about the quality.  I took this about a block from home through the car window.  

The tree in our backyard.  Look at that blue, blue sky.  I am so loving this weather.  Mandy says they're in a winter storm warning in Maryland.  I better pack snow boots because she says there is another storm arriving this weekend too.

And finally.  Down came the Valentine decoration this morning and up went St. Patrick's Day.  Since I only have a few weeks to enjoy it because I'll be gone, I decided to decorate early.  I love my little crocheted shamrocks, don't you?

I finished two more baby sweater/hat/sock sets this weekend but they are in the washer.  I also started three more rainbow blankets.  I've just finished the second round of colors.  I'll try to take pictures of everything later in the week for you.

I hope you are all having a wonderful Monday wherever you may be.  I am feeling particularly blessed and happy right now.  The sun shining sure helps doesn't it?  :-)

Blessings always,
