My alley cats

Our neighborhood, North Highlands, est. 1870-1936, was created around an alley system. "Back in the day" the alley was used for all the service trucks and utilities. Now, some folks still put their trash cans out there, many still drive through to access driveways or garages in the rear of their homes (like ours), and lots of us love to just stroll in the shade. My boys love to walk in the alley and look for "treasures".

What a cool mom...

All of my sofa cushions and bombs away!

A Southern Sunday in the snow

How "classic" is this?


Thanks, Grammy, for Sam's snow boots! Who knew we'd ever really need them for snow?

We had fun in the snow this afternoon but we were also VERY glad to come inside for hot chocolate!
