Week 15

This past week I was in Las Vegas for a nursing conference, Slice of NTI.  Vegas is not my favorite place to go...I just dont dig the all you can eat, drink, play, sex vibe.  I think I would have enjoyed the conference more if it had been somewhere more beautiful like California!  Anyhoo, I thought the two above pictures captured the beauty (even if artificial) that Vegas does offer.  The ceiling in one of the entrances of the Forum Shops at Caesers Palace is pretty striking and the crystal chandeliers all over the Paris Casino were gorgeous.  I took so many picture of them but this one is my favorite because it is from a different perspective!

Week 14

This was taken on Good Friday at our church, Emmaus Road.  We walked through the Fourteen Scriptural Stations of the Cross.  It was a very connecting time with Jesus and understanding where he came from.  The whole experience was peaceful and insightful.

Week 13

This weekend Rob and I were able to join our friends for a Sunday afternoon at the Desert Botanical Gardens in Phoenix.  I knew I would probably love this place, but wow, I REALLY loved it.  So much, I am considering a membership.  Here are some of the photos captured that afternoon:

Guest post!  I had to share the images my husband captured last week while on a hike with the pup while I was sleeping after a night of work.  I am going to make a book at the end of year of this blog and I wanted to make sure these photos were in there.  He really captured some great photos Sonora while also making sure the beauty of his surroundings were included.  Nice job, Rob!

Week 11

Well, this week I worked 84 hours...seven straight twelve hour shifts!  To say the least, I didn't get out to take any pictures.  Lots of things are starting to bloom and we had a couple rainy days which made for some beautiful sunsets but I kept forgetting to grab my little Sony Cybershot to snap some photos. 

Week 10

Last week I shared a picture of our cat...this week Sonora makes her debut again!  Enjoying a quick break on a spring hike here in Phoenix...we are soaking up the beautiful weather before the heat hits.
