Life's Little Treasures - Life Style-Art and Design: Mardi Gras 2014:  Well, 2014 is in full swing here in the South.  One of our most looked forward too activity of the year is Mardi Gras.  It is...

 My Garden before the 2014 sleet/snow storm.

Out in my Garden in October.

 January 30, 2014, can you believe snow/sleet in Mobile.  Hasn't happened in 30 years.  Hope it doesn't happen again in another 30 years.   Burr, it is cold out here.  Mitzie doesn't know what to think

Me and Mitzie in the sleet/snow.  Finally found my snow boots I brought with me from Reno.

My Garden will never be the same.

Mitzie is beginning to grow.  She is wearing a yellow dress that I made her.  She has been a blessing.  Keeps two senior citizens very active and busy.  Forgot what it takes to raise and train a puppy.

 Oh, what a life.  My Mitzie taking a nap.

Mitzie wearing her pink fleece jacket I made her and her red booties.  It was really funny watching her walk.  She didn't know what to think.

Mardi Gras 2014

 Well, 2014 is in full swing here in the South.  One of our most looked forward too activity of the year is Mardi Gras.  It is over a month of Formal Balls, Parades and celebrating here in Mobile.  Most people don't know that Mardi Gras actually started here in Mobile.  Way before New Orleans.  Following are pictures of my personal Mardi Gras Decorations, which I look forward to displaying each year.  The Jester painting on the wall is one of my original paintings.  The white mask is one I painted at a ceramics studio,
