March 30th


We had some friends over for dinner and we tried out a new appetizer. I got the idea from someone at another party. It is definitely one of our new favorites! :)
Just shrimp, a raw jalapeno slice, and fresh avocado. Sprinkled with some pepper. Yum!

Is this crazy or what? So many homes in Vegas are in foreclosure. They're actually marketing for "foreclosure landscaping"!

March 28th



Luke enjoying real grass. All we have in our yard is Astroturf (which we love). Luke loves to roll around in the real grass when we go for walks. I don't know how they keep it so green here!

Found this beautiful little flower growing up through the rocks in our front yard.....

Another random landscape photo.

March 25th


Ok, I know the next couple of pics aren't really that interesting, and I took them with my phone while out walking Luke, so they're not particularly special, but..... when all you do in unpack, clean, and organize all day, that's as good as it gets! haha I liked this plant (it's unique) and liked the shadow it made on the wall.....

I am so far behind in posting pictures... We just finally got internet, so hopefully I can get caught up and stay on track! I love the palm trees here- reminds me of being close to the ocean, when in reality, we are in the middle of the desert! :)

Loved the door on this church. Taken with my iphone, so not the best picture.

Wow- this move has put me way behind on my blog. Today is catch-up day! :)
I took a picture today, but it didn't turn out, so I am posting one of me, the hubby, and the dog.

Out of all the places to lay in the TLF, Luke chooses to lay in the kennel! Silly dog....

March 8th


I'm drinking wine out of a plastic tumbler (it's all we have in the TLF). What does this say about me? :)

No, he isn't spoiled.

My mom has been in town visiting. This is actually a picture from yesterday in Old Mesilla.

March 4th


Today my mom & I went to Old Mesilla (a historical part of Las Cruces, NM). I've wanted to go there for a while and we finally made the little over an hour trip. We had lunch in this building- La Posta, which housed Billy the Kid back in the day. Pretty neat!

March 3rd


I've been way behind on posting my pictures, since our TLF has not had internet until today. So here's to playing catch-up!
The moving truck arrived today to load up all of our stuff!
