What a BEAUtiFUL DaY!






What a wonderful day the weather was today in Tucson,AZ.
Since there was no tennis to be played today... I thoroughly enjoyed the smell of creasote in the desert.. I LOVE living out in the desert.. it is so amazing and I feel so fortunate to be able to experience it's beauty daily... I really dont think there has been a day gone by without expressing gratitude for the desert views... mountains, sky, saguaro, desert critters,quail, roadrunners... even the rabbits that Larry is going insane with tearing up our grass... when it rains.. well... it is just the BEST!

Scott and I went to Einstein Bagels for breakfast before heading out to take care of mission business.. passport pictures, measuring for suits etc... very fun spending time with Elder Shipley. :) Still trying to fathom the Philippines.. 2 YEARS!

As much as I love the rain.. we need to dry up for just awhile.. tennis at 7... done at 9 and then it can rain all weekend.. keeping my fingers crossed!!!!

I love the rain too - Although I did get two sets of tennis in 6:45 to 8:30a.m. I learned a new word too - I did not know what a creosote bush was - google is amazing! I'm sure it smells wonderful!
