Diana's Fabulous Garden Tour

     Diana, one of my co-workers, invited some of us over for a tour of her unbelievable gardens and a BBQ. We had heard about her gardening abilities, and she has been featured on the news and in the newspaper, but we didn't realize just how beautiful they would be.  It was even hard to decide what to take pictures of in order to do her gardens justice.  They were as big and beautiful as our local Munsinger Gardens!!

Her fairy garden

 Another cat amidst the purple flowers

 They even have a train track and a town that lights up surrounding one of the gardens to entertain the kids!!

 A few of us gathered for a quick picture.

 A perfect place for a nap...

 She even has a cherry tree!

 So much beauty...

Time to Rodeo!

Dinner before the rodeo was fun.  My mom decided to taste test our drinks.

Tasting Rache's key lime martini...

She did not like Bob's beer!!

She loved my pomegranate mojito so much that she drank it all!! :o)

My inner cowgirl...

The Budweiser Clydesdales are amazing and beautiful horses!!

What Have I Been Doing?

While I have been in Sheridan, I have...

...had ladies' dinner and movie nights 

(The Heat, Despicable Me 2, and Grownups 2)

...had dinner and laughs at Bob and Debbie's while spending time with Eric & Jessica

...been shopping with my sister, sister-in-law, and mother

...and watched my brother, Dave, and his grandson, Ezra, dominate at pinball!!

Some of the amazing sights from "Out West"...

Budweiser Clydesdales...such beautiful animals!!

New life (baby robins born during dinner at Bob and Debbie's one night)

Time for Pretty Toes

     Rache and I took Grandma to get her toes done.  She really enjoyed having a cup of coffee, a chair massage, and her feet pampered.

Rache was brave enough to let little "Richard" select a color for her toes!

One happy Grandma :0)

Holy Donuts in Session!!

We had our best year yet in the doughnut making department!!

Rache and Grandma making the shapes...

Jessica glazed the donuts.

Eric was our "sugar" daddy...LOL!!

Grandpa gave us the thumbs up this year!!

Grandpa is still not done with his side of the story, and Rache sneaks a doughnut hole.

As usual, I am the fryer!!
