Black Tortie Friday!

We hope all our U.S. friends had a wonderful Thanksgiving and we're wishing a happy Friday to everybody everywhere!  Today is what is known as Black Friday but around here it's Black Tortie Friday...

Mommy, you can rub my tummy any time you want...

Now if I can figure out how to make her quit complaining about her numb feets.  Sheesh.

We're taking a long weekend since our Grandma from Vegas is coming here to help Mommy get ready for her craft show next week.  

Have a Happy Sadieday and a great weekend! 

Isabella

Happy Thanksgiving!

Happy Thanksgiving to all our friends here in the U.S.!  We're taking time out to reflect on all that we are thankful for today...

We're thankful for...

Our friends around the world

A warm, loving home

Toys and treats

Boxes

Even little sisfurs...

We hope your home and heart are filled with love and that your tummy is filled with yummy foods today and everyday!  

Happy Thanksgiving from our home to yours!

Isabella, Angel and our Mommy 

Tortie Tuesday

It's Tortie Tuesday so I get to show you the brand new bed Mommy got us me.  It's handmade by a lady in our town and it has lots of room.

Helloooo! Hellooo! Hellooo!

It may have a lot of room but not enough for two of us...

Are you sure Bella?

Let me double check.  Nope, sorry Angel.

Get back and let me see Bella...

Sheesh!  Somekitties don't take no for an answer!

She went and spoiled my time in the new bed...

Because I'm nice and cozy and she's on a flat, crinkly bag...

Well, whaddya know.  Guess the bed is bigger than I thought.

Mommy is right, it's a good thing she's cute.

Santa Claws better be taking notes!

Hope you have a cozy Tortie Tuesday!

Weekend Wrap Up

We hope you had a relaxing weekend!  We sure had a good weekend capped off with a lazy day yesterday after our Grandpa from Kansas had to leave to go back to, well, Kansas.  I did help Mommy clean out the bin she'll use for her upcoming craft show...

She and Daddy took it to the cabin on the beach last week.  Don't worry, I made sure to clean all the sand off the sides...

What would she do without me?  It's a tough job but somekitty has to do it!

What was the highlight of your weekend!

Enjoy your day!

Angel

A Sadieday Reminder...

The holidays are just around the corner but it's important to not get caught up in the hustle and bustle and to remember what the holidays are about.  Mommy had been burning her candle at both ends, whatever that means, so to take a step back and relax, she and Daddy went to her most favorite spot on the coast - Cape Lookout...

They stayed in a cabin close to the beach where they listened to the waves and watched the sunsets...

She came back recharged like our angel sisfur Sadie always did when she went to the beach too...

We'll be sure to take time out for ourselves too...

Be sure to recognize when things are getting hectic in your house and take some time out for yourself such as laying in a sunpuddle, napping, snacking or napping some more.  The next month will fly by so enjoy it to the fullest!

Hope you have a wonderful Sadieday and weekend!

Finally Friday

We've had a great week because of a special visitor - our Grandpa from Kansas!  He gives the bestest belly rubs...

Oh my Cod this is great...

Hey Grandpa from Kansas, you really outta come visit more often!

Hope you have a happy belly kinda of day!

Staying Warm

It's been super chilly in our neck of the woods lately so since I like to sleep in the closet, Mommy leaves sweatshirts and sweatpants on the floor for me to curl up in to stay warm...

And then she tells me over and over that I'm so cute she can hardly stand it.

It's a tough job being cute but somekitty's got to do it!

Hope you have a warm, cuddly day!

Angel

Tortie Tuesday

Now that Mommy is back home, she's been making sure there's no Tortie furs on her pillow which, of course, Daddy didn't.  He lets me sleep wherever I please!  Anyway, I've figured out a way to sleep on her pillow so she won't notice...

Pretty clever huh?  I can't see her so she can't see me...

Oh, hi there Mommy. 

Rats.  I've been uncovered...  

It's impossible to hide my Tortieness. *sigh*

Hope you aren't disturbed today!

Isabella

Weekend Wrap Up

We hope you had a good weekend!  Although we enjoyed our time with our Daddy last week, it was good having Mommy home again.  She's the only one that I can wake up in the wee hours of the morning for treats that she conveniently keeps in her nightstand drawer.   So, if she stirs even just slightly, don't worry, I'll be ready...

Yep, it's a good thing I'm cute!

Hope you have a treat filled day!

Angel

Finally Friday

It's Friday and the best part is Mommy's home!  We were so glad to see her!  I purred really, really loud and made lots of biscuits too!  After she was home for awhile and started taking things out of her carry-on, I realized I better find out where our present was.  She got Daddy some fancy M&M's and she bought herself a now incomplete box of goodies* but I didn't see anything for me...

But then I realized I got the bestest gift of all, Mommy is home!

We love being with Daddy but it was tough making it through the night without 2am treats!

We hope you have a fabulous Friday too!

Angel

*Mommy flew on Allegiant and was worried about the weight limit on her luggage so put her new box of goodies in her carry-on to make sure her suitcase wouldn't be over the limit.  After waiting in line to check in her suitcase then waiting in lines at security, her carry-on was inspected by TSA.  She'd totally forgot that the lotion and body scrub in the box were each more than twice the 3oz limit so her choices were to go back downstairs and check her carry-on (at a cost of $50), mail the items back home (at a cost of $20+) or to watch the TSA agent throw them away (approx $40 of product in the trash).   Let's just say Mommy literally threw her money away in Vegas!  The TSA agent did say she could have gone back out of security and put the lotion on so she could wear it once before it went in the trash.  Pretty generous huh?  She was nice about it at least.  

Waiting...

Mommy finally comes home today so we're not going to take our eyes off the door...

Hope she gets here before naptime!

We enjoyed our time with Daddy but we sure missed Mommy!  She's the only one we can wake up at night for treats!

We hope you get lots of treats today!

Angel and Isabella

Tortie Tuesday

It's Tortie Tuesday and today I'm going to linger in bed on Mommy's pillow!  She's always complaining about my Tortie furs on her face but she's not here so Daddy is in charge and he let's me do whatever I want!

I'm going to kick up my Tortie toesies and enjoy this while it lasts!

It's good to be Daddy's Girl!

Hope you kick up your toesies today too!

Isabella

We Tried!

We tried to sneak in Mommy's suitcase on the outside...

And the inside...

But it didn't work.  She went to our Grandma's in Vegas without us.  That's okay because we're home being spoilt by our Daddy!

We hope you're spoilt today too!

Isabella and Angel

Finally Friday

We are always glad it's Friday around here because we know Friday night is movie night.  Actually, it's a night where Mommy wraps herself in a blanket, puts her legs up on the table and I sprawl out while her feets go numb and she watches me instead of anything on TV...

But then again, can you blame her?

Yep, I'm so cute she can hardly stand it!

We might be a little scarce for the next month since Mommy has a craft show in four weeks to get ready for and in between now and then she's got custom orders for bracelets to do, a trip with a friend to our Grandma's in Vegas, a trip with Daddy to a cabin on the coast, a visit from our Grandpa in KS, a visit from our Grandma in Vegas, working on tax returns plus Turkey Day!  Phew!  That tired us out!  We're going to need lots of extra naps especially since we'll be up being spoiled by our visitors!

We hope you have a enjoyable Friday!

(Almost) Wordless Wednesday

Naked trees means uncovered birdies!

Happy Wednesday!

Angel

Peaceful Tortie Tuesday

It's Tortie Tuesday but it's also Blog Blast for Peace day.  We practice peace every day...

We wish everybody felt the same.  Cuddles are always the better alternative!

We hope you have a peaceful Tortie Tuesday!

It's Our 8th Gotcha Day!

Eight years ago today we were Gotcha'd by our Mommy and Daddy!  We weren't planned (we stole their hearts by surprise) so we came home in cardboard carriers as demonstrated by this re-creation a few weeks after the actual event...

We each had our own carrier but from the very beginning we always wanted to be together...

Of course Sadie liked being with us too even though she didn't want anyone to know that...

We've come a long way since we were little ones...

We are glad to have been Gotcha'd by our Mommy and Daddy and we know they're super happy to have Gotcha'd us!  We wish all animals could be in a home filled with love like we and all our friends are.  To help take care of the animals at the shelter we came from, we're going to donate $1 for every comment on this post until midnight tonight to Heartland Humane Society.  

We hope you have a smile and share some love with someone today in honor of our Gotcha Day!  Have some extra treats too!

Angel and Isabella
