One More Day!

We have had a great time with Daddy but we are so excited that Mommy comes home from our Grandma's in Las Vegas tomorrow! She said she has had fun but misses us all very much. She said she thinks of us all the time and even saw Angel on a slot machine. Okay, maybe it doesn't look just like Angel but it's the thought that counts!

She even saw some birdies that she thought we'd like to play with, I mean look at! It's a family of quail that was in our Grandma's backyard.

And since she is at Grandma's, she had to send some pictures of our Uncle Samy! Mommy asked Grandma which picture was the cutest. Well, Grandma said this one...

and this one...

and this one!

We hope the day goes by quickly so we can see Mommy quicker!

Happy Purrsday to you!

Hotsy Totsy Tuesday!

Okay, well maybe it's not "hotsy, totsy" where you are but I'm at my mom's in Las Vegas and it's certainly plenty "hotsy, totsy" for me. Anything about 90 degrees is above my comfort zone and 100 certainly surpasses it! At least my furbabies have been blogging up a storm for me while I've been here at my mom's. I can only imagine what bad habits Daddy is teaching them! (or vice versa I suppose!)

My mom is also a beader so yesterday we did what beaders do, we spent a very long time in a bead store! They have huge bead stores here in Vegas and it was visually overwheming with thousands of bead strands hanging on all walls and tables and more tables of little bins filled with thousands of more beads. I took some pictures - right before one of the employees caught me and said "uhm, no, we do not allow pictures taken of our store!". So, shhh, don't tell!

I had a headache from optical overload but it was a lot of fun and we found some great beads that will be showing up in new creations very soon!

My mom also wanted me to post pictures of her dog, Samy. She even put his bandana on him for his pictures! Hopefully Isabella, Angel and Sadie won't mind sharing the spotlight for today!

I want to thank Twenty Pound Tabby and Advice On Assisted Living for giving me the I ♥ Your Blog award! It means so much to me to have readers enjoy my blog so receiving awards still make me jump with joy! Thank you both very much! I appreciate it more than I can say! I have recently passed this award on so at this time, I will not be announcing my nominees but will certainly pass it on in the future.

Lazy Sundays...

I look forward to Sundays because it's usually the day when errands are done and it's time to relax before the work week begins again. I try to create more jewelry and get it all photographed on Sundays so I can add to our Etsy shop during the week when time is limited. Baking is another good Sunday activity, although with the temperatures heating up outside, a hot oven inside isn't as appealing as the goodies that result. Other than lounging by the pool on these hot summer days, a perfect day would be spent napping or lounging in bed reading. Below is my mom's dog Samy, who is demonstrating how he enjoys lingering in bed on hot days, or any day for that matter.

My mom, who is also my partner in our Etsy shop, BeadedTail, lives in Las Vegas and Samy is a Miniature American Eskimo and, as can be seen in the photo, they have him groomed so his hair is short to help keep him cool since the desert is pretty toasty, plus it helps with shedding. They adopted him from a couple who lived in a small apartment and realized they didn't have the space nor the time to take care of him. Samy now lives the life of a King and I'm sure he knows it! He has diabetes so must receive insulin shots twice a day to keep his blood sugar level on track. He is doing very well and is very happy and living the high life on Sunday, and every day of the week!
