Photo a Day -- Feb 26 - Mar 3

Time for a glimpse into daily life at the Schneider Ranch.  (we need an interesting name for this place)  Perhaps this week, the Schneider Zoo would be appropriate as there were 12 of us under one roof during much of this week!

Sunday, February 26 -- George is often a guest at the dinner table when Jeremy is eating. The rest of us are not quite so generous.




Monday, Feb 27 -- Lucy is our adopted DOGhter. LOL She seems to visit us for at least one weekend almost every month. She's a people person and wants to be with you . I caught her here looking longingly out the window at me and wondering why she was on the WRONG side of it!



Tuesday, Feb 28 -- This storm actually took place on the 17th but I had to include it in this months photos. Normally, storms are a big part of what we look forward to in February but this month we didn't get a ton of storms. We we did have a couple and we did cherish them. In the desert, a little rain is just such a wonderful blessing.

Wednesday, Feb 29 -- It's Leap Day! But the kids had testing for AIMS and mom enjoyed lunch out with friend Rose! We stopped at Radio Shack of all things on our way to church and encountered another little thing that I always love in the Spring. Texas Mountain Laurel plants all over the valley bloom and leave their amazing Grape scent all over the city. It's really quite stunning how strong the scent is and how it smells just like grape kool-aid would. I love these and look forward to their blooming every single year. So very beautiful.

Thursday, Mar 1 -- I got to visit with and snuggle Jack! I can't ask for a much better gift than that really. There is something about snuggling with a newborn, especially one you are attached to that is just beyond special.

Friday, Mar 2 -- Poor Bean got himself stuck on the wrong side of the fence. He looked rather pathetic waiting out there. I have no idea how long he was there but I suspect it was a while. I guess he learned what a 'traveling Jones' would get him.

Saturday, Mar 3 -- We made Pad Thai for supper while the Coult's were here. This stuff is addicting!

I am sometimes amazed at all the going's on that don't get recorded in this little exercise.  For instance, on Saturday I also made two layouts, met with Summer for a mentoring session, Jeremy and his band played at a concert in the park while Hunter and several of the Coult boys ran in a 5K.  Rebecca and the girls (and some boys too I believe) went to the church and participated in Market on the Move.  I went shopping for the aforementioned Pad Thai.  But alas, the camera was only employed for the Pad Thai so that is what got recorded.  

And I used to think my life was boring and uneventful!  Hah!
