The weekend is over :(

Another Sunday night is here and Lloyd will be back at work tomorrow. Its been so nice...we've sat outside each night by the fire until after dark. We've relaxed and pottered about and enjoyed being at home for the most part. Yesterday we headed into town for the meeting and today we headed out to Nisku for a while....but apart from that its been a quiet time at home.

I'm always sad when Sunday night arrives. Only a few weeks until Lloyd is on holiday though and will be home for two weeks.

The weather this weekend was gorgeous too - Sunny and warm and no rain since Friday so it was perfect :) This morning we lazed in bed and watched the movie 'Dreamer' which left us both wanting to run out and buy horses lol....but we didn't ;) we kind of need fences and a horse box before that lol!

We had a wonderful roast dinner tonight - roast chicken, roast potatoes and vegetables with yummy gravy....we haven't had a big meal like that in weeks because of the heat.

Friday we had the heating on because it was cold, yesterday we had the a/c on because of the heat....crazy weather :) Todays weather was just right :)

Well, Lloyd is showering and I am about to make some chicken salad sandwiches for Lloyd to take to work tomorrow.

Have a great week everyone......oh and what did you all do this weekend?

Animal rescue...part 2 :)

As we were driving along the highway this afternoon we saw the cutest tiniest coyote pup coming down the bank of grass towards the busy road. Then we spotted another coming out of the bushes following the first....

We drove along the road a little and I was saying 'OMG OMG they are going to get hit by a car!!' so Lloyd kind of sighed and rolled his eyes and said 'come on then, lets go rescue some coyotes!' so he turned the car around and we headed back towards the pups, pulled up alongside them and saw a third coming down beside the road as well. We opened the window and I started clapping loudly...two of them ran into the bushes again but the first one, who seemed a little too brave for his own good, just stood and looked at us, so Lloyd got out of the car and ran up towards it and I beeped the horn - and then it ran away....away from the busy highway and hopefully will be a little more wary of busy roads, people and cars in future!

But OMG these little coyote pups were the cutest things EVER - like tiny little grey foxes with that cute coyote face.....you can see pictures of coyote pups like the ones we saw here:
