Can anyone tell me the name of this plant??????
It seems to like me because I got rid of, no, that's not exactly how it was but almost. I shoveled it out of my pot & took it over to Melissa's & planted it in her side yard. It's doing very well - has blossoms on it - likes where it got planted!!
It had taken over my pot that I had planted basil in.
After I thought I was rid of it or so I thought, I went to the nursery & bought some brand new basil & planted it in my newly cleaned pot.



As you can see my basil is doing so good, green & fragrant - love my basil.

But as you can see this other plant is also growing in my pot!!!!!!!






Did you guess what it was????? Well, it's a BLACKBERRY BUSH!!!!! And no it wasn't planted in the pot ever!! It just came up on it's own. Now I have another blackberry bush growing in the pot with my basil!!! Any one want a "Satan Bush"?? Come on Heather, you can take it home with you!!

Jeff & Melissa's Garage

Jeff & Melissa made the extremely smart decision to have me put some shelves up in their garage.  I forgot to take a before picture, but here are the after shots.

Puerto Lobos, Mexico

I took that table down to Mexico to Puerto Lobos. I took Logan and Mason with me and we spent 4 days there. Here are a few photos.




Sunset from our back porch.



Here are the boys on the boat fishing.


Logan worked on this Yellow Tail Tuna for about 20 minutes. He finally got too tired and my friend Wells Davis finished him off.



Here is the big one that I caught.



We went for a drive down the beach and found this whale. He smelled great!!!



Here we are on the white sand beach looking for cool shells.



Here is a whale bone.



This is another whale bone. This one is the flipper.




Me and the boys.




Here is Logan working on the Yellow Tail.




Here is the fish that Logan started and Wells finished.

Table

I just finished building this table with my friend Wells Davis.  I thought it turned out nice.

It is bigger than it looks.  5' X 11'.  Each bench is 4.5' long.  It weighs over 600 lbs.  We made it for his brother.  He has a house in Mexico and wanted a big table for large groups.

Annual Ski Trip

The past 4 years we have gone to Donner Ski Ranch in Tahoe to ski. Each year we go with our neighbors and stay together in one big condo. It's a ton-of-fun and believe it or not affordable if you can handle the long drive.

This year our neighbor made a video. You may have to guess who's who, but everyone, including Ryan, was out on the slopes.

The Arizona Home & Garden Show


Brent had a booth at the Home & Garden Show at the State Fairgrounds, for his garage shelving. These pictures were taken on Friday-not too busy. Didn't bring the camera on Saturday-mega busy!! I'm sure he was able to drum up some business for himself.
