This has been quite the busy week. In addition to Christmas, our two youngest children had birthdays this week. That makes for a lot of cake, cookies and presents.

We had a few storms come through this week. According to our rain gauge we had around .9 inches of rain this week. We even had some lighter rain which is good because it doesn’t all run off down our road.

The prior owners had a bird feeder and a platform for a quail block. This week I finally put food there to see if we could attract any birds.

Our house is only a few miles from the Pinal Airpark. It is a storage place for airplanes. Occasionally we can see large airplanes landing there. It seems like the plane has nowhere to go from our porch.

And here are some obligatory Arizona sunset pictures.
