Lost

Charlie and I are big fans of the TV show Lost (http://abc.go.com/shows/lost) and tonight is the series finale. We are really excited and can't wait to have some questions answered. I hope it lives up to all the hype!

Canyon De Chelly

I went to Arizona this week for work and got the chance to go see Canyon De Chelly near Chinle. It is very pretty and I would recommend it to anyone who is near the area.

Good Food from Iowa

Every time I go back home to Iowa, there are certain items I love to eat since we don't have them in Albuquerque. Here are some of the items I enjoyed this past weekend.

Donuts with Sprinkles from Casey's General Store

Pigs in the Blanket from the Tulip Festival

Poffertjes (little Dutch pancakes)

Happy Mother's Day

Happy Mother's Day Mom! Love you!

Save the Children Group

Here are most of my co-workers (missing one who lives in Phoenix) at Save the Children - Western Regional Office in Albuquerque. Shannon (back row in white shirt) is leaving us and moving to the Memphis office of Save the Children. She will be missed as we have a lot of fun together!

Charlie's Bad

We have been in the process of testing our dog by leaving her out of her kennel while we are gone. When we first got her a year and a half ago there was no way she was going to be left out but over the last couple weeks, she has done pretty well.

Today, Charlie left her out after lunch but forgot to throw away some to go containers from our dinner last night and this is what I found when I got home. As you can see she enjoyed the food left in the containers.

Happy Cinco De Mayo

Hope you could enjoy some great food on Cinco De Mayo like we did!

Tug Of War

Playing tug of war with Stella's headless chicken.

Solitaire Queen

Since Charlie has been busy doing homework, I have been playing a lot of solitaire to try and stay quiet so he can focus. I am pretty bad and have only a 17% winning percentage but somehow I am still addicted.

Homework Blues

Even though I am now done with classes for the semester, poor Charlie has a couple more weeks to go. He was busy all morning working on a project for his class.
