Valentine's Day Nature Friday

Welcome to Nature Friday, where we get to meet new friends and share a picture or two of what nature looks like around Blogville. Last week, Mama visited the ABQ Aquarium in search of nature. She was pleasantly surprised to see the improvements they had made in some of the exhibits. 

 This little seagull was rescued and now lives over the Stingray Pool at the aquarium! 

She said hello to this little turtle who was warming himself under the exhibit's sun lamp.

....she spent a bunch of time with the jellyfish too!

Plus, you know she visited her favorite furry water mammal, the Otter!!


It was hard to get pictures in the aquarium, so Mama made a little video:

Happy Galentine's Day!

 
Happy Galentines Day!! 
A fun holiday, celebrating women and their friendships.


Galentines Day originated on the TV show, Parks and Recreation From there, the idea spread through social media and the continued annual celebration on the TV Show.


Mama is actually celebrating Galentines Day by going on a long weekend cruise this weekend with her best friend!! We're sure she'll take a bunch of pictures and share them when she gets back.

She's not leaving her computer password, so we will be MIA until next Wednesday. We made sure to give Mama enough blog posts to "schedule"  through the magic of the interwebs.


What will we be doing for Galentines AND Valentine's Day? 
Well, staying home and getting spoiled by our Daddy of course!!!

We are so thankful Mama gets to go spend time with her BFF and even MORE thankful we get to spend some one on one, quality time with Daddy!!

Working Hard or Hardly Working

 
Welcome to Backyard Wildlife Wednesday, that day of the week we let Mama share some footage TC(our Trail Camera) has taken in our backyard.

NF - Florida Beaches

 
Welcome to Nature Friday, where we get to meet new friends and share a picture or two of what nature looks like around Blogville. Today, I'm letting Mama show us some of the beaches she and Daddy saw while they were in Florida.

Thanks Rosy! 
Since we were staying about an hour from the Gulf of Mexico when visiting the Tampa RV Show, we decided to take a drive to Florida coast to put our toes in the water!
While we knew Clearwater and the surrounding coast was where the major hurricanes landed last Fall, we were still floored by the damage we saw. The beach parking was scarce because of road and lot repair work, but we found a spot not too far from the beach.

A lot of businesses were still under construction, and many roads closed, as they worked to repair the houses that were damaged during the storms.

The beaches were still beautiful though, and the seashells plentiful.

But the Gulf Coast was only the first body of water Ed put his hand in while we were visiting Florida.

After spending 2 nights in the Tampa area, we drove across Florida(with a stop for lunch to visit my BFF in Central Florida) to the Jacksonville, Florida area and the Atlantic ocean!


The beaches on the Atlantic side of the state were just as beautiful....

....and Ed got to put his hand in the Atlantic ocean and the Gulf of Mexico all in one weekend!!

For your listening pleasure, here is a short video of both oceans:

We headed home from Florida refreshed and renewed.

But mostly happy to see us, right Mama???

Thankful Thursday - Morning Routine


Today, on Thankful Thursday, I(Sunny) want to say how thankful I am for a morning routine. There is something about a routine that helps keep me quieter and happier. Mama says she gets it, because it helps her too! Anyways...here is a peek at our morning routine!


We get up most mornings at around 6AM. Rosy and Mama  make their way into the living room to wake me up to start the day! First things first, Mama takes us out for a nice walkie in the backyard to go potty (not to mention to chase away any bunnies!).

After our morning walks, it's medicine time. Rosy isn't taking any meds right now, but she gets a little piece of pill pocket(so if she does need meds, it's easier for sneaky Mama to slip a pill in)

I look forward to my pills!
Before medicine time, Mama makes her coffee and steams her milk(Mama is spoiled and has a latte machine).

Mama says we are even MORE spoiled because, after medicine time, we get puppachino lickies.

Mama shares her steamed milk with us almost every morning!

After puppachino lickies, Mama puts down my breakfast.
We didn't start getting breakfast until about a year ago when our doctor thought it would be better for us(well me) to eat twice a day. 
Thanks Doc!!

While I get my breakfast, Rosy gets her puppachino lickies. I think it might be Rosy's most favorite part of the day too!!

Then Rosy gets her breakfast!

...and that's our morning routine. We are also thankful that, even when we are camping, Mama can stick to the same routine so it keeps me a happy and healthy(and keeps the pawrents sane)!!

Do you have a morning routine??


Thank you Angel Brian for hosting the

Frankie and Benjy on Backyard Wildlife Wednesday

 

Welcome to Backyard Wildlife Wednesday, that day of the week we let Mama share some footage TC(our Trail Camera) has taken in our backyard. Today we are going to take a closer look at Benjy and Frankie, the two little field mice that hang out by the bird feeders.

Mama named them Benjy and Frankie after the two little mice in the Douglas Adams' book Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. In the book, the mice disguised themselves as the pets of one of the heroine's when, in reality, they were two of the most intelligent beings on Earth!
(You can read more about Benjy and Frankie HERE)



(As always, feel free to visit our YouTube Channel HERE)

We aren't sure if OUR Frankie and Benjy mice are the smartest beings on our Earth, but they have been able to avoid our neighborhood kitties(and stay FAR away from our house)!!

Happy Travel Tuesday - The Pawrents Go to Florida

During Winter Break our pawrents went for a happy little weekend getaway to Florida.  Since it's way past my morning nap time, I'm handing the blog over to Mama so she can tell you all about it!

Thanks Sunny! 
Way before we decided to bring home RC the RV, our plan was to visit one of the USA's big RV shows with the intention of narrowing down the type of vehicle we wanted as our "forever RV" (Forever RV = One we could use for weekend trips now, and longer RV adventures in the future). The Tampa RV Show fit the bill (with the bonus of warmer weather) so we booked the trip! 

Fast forward to November, when we found RC(the right coach at the right price) and decided to bring her home. We decided to turn our RV hunting trip into a fun trip to visit the RV Show and to enjoy some Florida weather and scenery. 

With the pressure of finding an RV gone, we spent the day walking around and enjoying the different exhibits!


We looked at a bunch of RVs, including a few Newmar coaches like RC. I have to admit, I'm happy we found RC before the RV Show, the number of Class A Coaches was staggering. In addition to the many different coaches, vans and travel trailers, there were two big warehouses filled with vendors selling everything from RV flag holders to dog strollers!  

It wasn't all about the RVs though.....

There were kitschy little exhibits....

...and, of course, all the delicious fair food you could eat!

We had a wonderful time at the Florida RV Supershow, and look forward to visiting again in the coming years!   

Hey, you awake Sunny? Why don't you tell everyone what we have coming up on Friday,
****Yawn****
Sheesh, a girl can't even get a decent nap around here!

Stay tuned Friday when Mama and Rosy show you the beaches the pawrents visited in Florida!

We hope everybuddy is having a very Happy Tuesday!
