Rain and Shine ~ Weekend Recap

 Good Monday morning, blog friends.

♥

I'm typing with a bit of a NyQuil hangover this morning, having muddled my way through a weekend with a stupid head cold. It was a perfect weekend to snuggle up inside and take it easy. This morning I'm giving you just a few photos from our weekend.

We had a good amount of rain this weekend, and I know that it will be great for Arizona wildflowers! I thought about going out for a walk in this - just to practice for our upcoming trip to England - but decided to stay inside where things were warm and dry.

This boy, on the other hand, was out and about in full force - Rex loves the rain!  

And speaking of Rexy, Doug and I have worried about him all winter, as it seemed like he never completely hibernated. We'd see him once in a while during the winter months, out of his hut moving verrrry slowly and never eating anything we offered. But this weekend he was out and about, looking healthy as can be, and with an appetite to match. Looks like he'll have to become more familiar with a camera once again!

Saturday, more rain and dark clouds - all day. We've just about decided that this poor little tree is going to have to be removed. It's been struggling since we moved in here, and we've been nursing it the best we can. However, we think this past winter's freeze was the final straw. Sad.

We had all of Doug's family over for a backyard breakfast yesterday morning, and our weather was amazing for the occasion! Our backyard looks so much better wrapped in sunshine!

It's been so long since our group has gone camping, and I was really missing a good ol' camping breakfast, so my three SIL's and I made camping-breakfast-food {potatoes, bacon, scrambled eggs, sausage gravy, fruit salad, and biscuits}. One word: yum!

It's always a fun time when we get together with our family. Oh, and speaking of family, this was Lucky's debut with my in-laws and he did so well. There was no begging for food or jumping or barking. Good doggy!

Ok, well, this feels like a very disjointed weekend recap, but that's about par for the course here. And with that I'm off to blow my nose again {ew, I know...} and take on the week ahead. It's hard to believe that Carrie and I leave for England ONE WEEK from Wednesday. {Yikes and yay all rolled in to one!} :o)

Here's hoping spring is springing on your piece of the planet.

Enjoy the upcoming week, sweet friends!
