We woke up this morning to a beautiful sunrise and the sun just keeps on shining. Such a nice day for Easter Sunday and great weather to enjoy an outdoor Easter egg hunt if you're having one. We might just have a little fun with Cooper later and hide some treats in the backyard....
This past week was a great one, highlighted with the Neil Diamond Concert on Thursday night. And what a concert it was! The Diamond sang for two hours, non stop, accompanied by a 13 member band. Despite being 74 years young, his voice hasn't changed one bit and he is still full of energy. He mostly sang the songs that we all know and love and threw in three new ones from his recent album. He sang Sweet Caroline towards the end of the show and the audience sang along with him. I have goose bumps just thinking about it. It was the kind of show that just makes you feel good. Thanks to my hubby for getting the tickets.....row 6 and VIP pre-show cocktails. It was a beautiful night!
We picked up the Coop at Camp Talemaker on Friday morning and made our way to Huntsville. The traffic was rather heavy due to the long weekend but we made good time and got home at 11:30. We were amazed to see how much snow had melted in the short time that we were gone. One day, soon, we will wake up and the snow will be all gone.
Yesterday, we had the pleasure of having Eve, Pernell, Heaton and Brodie, and of course Phoebe the cocker spaniel, over for lunch. It was nice to see them and especially nice to catch up with Eve. Cooper and Phoebe got along really well. Phoebe is 13 years old and loves playing in the snow. She seemed quite comfortable in our house. The weather cooperated and we were able to spend some time on the deck. Eve and I even enjoyed a glass of wine outside. Thanks guys for taking the time to come and visit. We enjoyed it very much!
This coming week will be a quiet one, not much on the go. Cooper will go back to doggie day care on Thursday. He hasn't been for a while so he looks forward to seeing his friend Brenna, the doodle.
That's it for this week's blog. I hope you all enjoy your Easter Sunday. I leave you with a few photos from the concert and some taken yesterday. Of course, I have to include one of Cooper wishing you all Happy Easter!
