Beautiful Music and Art!

Last night I went to Art on the Rocks. It is a fun night filled with social and cultural activities at the Birmingham Museum of Art. There was a band, food and plenty to drink, not to mention the beautiful artwork going back centuries (which was amazing). It started at 5:00pm and ran until 10:00pm. I got there around 7:30 and the crowd was pouring in. The band was set up outside and it was the perfect warm and breezy evening. It wasn't long before the crowd was dancing along with the music with barely any elbow room. It was a great time.

There are 4 Art on the Rocks events each year. I think I am going to make plans to go to the next one in June. The band sounds like it will be excellent.

I hope all of you have the most wonderful weekend!

Darbi girl's Debut

I didn't want tax day to be the most recent thing I have posted in case I don't get back here for awhile.
You all know about my sweet Cody. I thought I would share some pictures of my sweet Darbi. Darbi has always been a little shy. She just turned 12. Cody was the alpha cat and always demanded the attention. Darbi has always been sweet but not as outgoing as Cody. Now, Darbi is starting to show her true personality. She gets all the attention and is loving it. I know she misses Cody, as I do, but we are getting to know each other really good now. She has the most beautiful coloring and crystal blue eyes. She is a little love bug.
These pictures were taken on the day it snowed. We hardly EVER get snow here in Birmingham, Alabama!! It was beautiful.
Here are a few shots from March 1, 2009.

(You can click on the pictures to enlarge.)

The snow is beautiful, but I love Spring!
Have a great day!

It's here...

April 15th!

Spring is in the air...

...oh and it's tax day... remember?

Good luck to those that have waited until the last day.

Just don't get all crazy rushing it, be safe!

On a slightly different note...

Here are a few of the Alabama Tea Party Posters.

Are there any other tea party goers out there?

Happy Tax Day!

In memory of Cody

My dear sweet Cody also known as Codybear.
He was the sweetest cat and best little friend ever.
He got sick suddenly a week before Thanksgiving.
I found out he had lung cancer.
He went to sleep January 18.
He was with me almost 13 years. I miss him very much.

I thought I would say hello to all of you and pay a small tribute to my little friend.

He would actually come to me when I called him.
He followed me everywhere.
He either had to be sitting where he could touch me or look at me.
He would cry when I would take a shower...
and
...he was always there for me when I cried.
He demanded my attention when I would talk on the phone or type at the computer.
He always sat and watched (looking a bit jealous) when I loved on my other cat Darbi.
He was excellent at giving kitty kisses and receiving tender hugs.
He genuinely loved me unconditionally.
What an amazing little fellow.
