August 8th

Today is our Mommy and Daddy's 30th anniversary! That's a really long time so they're still enjoying a vacation in Maui...

And we're still enjoying our time with Grandpa from Kansas but we'll celebrate when they get home this weekend.

Hope you enjoy a treat or two in their honor today!

Happy Anniversary to our Mommy and Daddy!
Happy World Cat day to our kitty friends too!

August 8th

Okay, I know this is supposed to remind me of something important happening today...

There's a kitty so it must mean it's World Cat Day...

There's also the word love on it. It could mean everyone loves kitties but I'm thinking it means something else. What could it be? Oh yeah! It's Mommy and Daddy's 28th anniversary today!

♫ Happy Anniversary to you ♫

♫ Happy Anniversary to you ♫

♫ Happy Anniversary Mommy and Daddyyyyyy ♫...

♫Happy Anniversary to you!♫

Happy World Cats Day to all our kitty friends!

Happy Anniversary to my mommy and daddy too!

Lots of love,

Angel

August 8th Eve

We're so glad it's finally Friday! Our week was full of Torties and tomatoes...

And cooler temps resulting in open windows and piles of floofyness..

Our weekend will be filled with celebrating Mommy and Daddy's anniversary on Sadieday, August 8th...

Of course we'll be celebrating World Cat Day too...

Since we have so much to celebrate, we're taking a long weekend to enjoy it all! 

We hope you enjoy your weekend too!

Anniversary Celebration!

Today is our Mommy and Daddy's 26th Anniversary! 

They were married on 8-8-88 which is a lot of 8's so it must have been a very long time ago...

Since they're going to be celebrating at the coast or hiking or whatever they decide to do, we're going to take another long weekend so we can celebrate doing whatever we want to do too!  We hope everyone has something to celebrate this weekend even if it's a sunny new day!

Happy 26th Anniversary to our Mommy and Daddy!

Angel and Isabella

Happy World Cat Day too!

Anniversary Celebration!

Today is our Mommy and Daddy's 25th Anniversary!  That's a really long time so it was pretty smart they got married on 8-8-88 so they won't forget as all the years go by...

They are celebrating over the next four days by going to the coast or mountains or hiking or whatever they want to do and then they'll go to Hawaii to celebrate even more this fall.  We might just have a celebration here ourselves with niptinis, chik-hen and ribbons!

Since we can't post by ourselves, we're going to be taking a long weekend again.  We hope everybody finds something to celebrate this weekend even if it's just a brand new morning!  

Happy 25th Anniversary to our Mommy and Daddy!

Angel and Isabella

PeeS:  Happy World Cat Day too!  Cats Rule!

Anniversary Wishes - Flashback

Today is our Mommy and Daddy's 24th anniversary!  We tried to figure out what to post for them today but couldn't think of anything cuter than our sisfur Sadie...

Yeah, we know it's World Cat Day and we're certainly cute too but it's hard to compete with our sweet sisfur.  Don't you agree?

Happy Anniversary Mommy and Daddy!  

Happy World Cat Day too!

Angel & Isabella

PeeS:  Mommy and Daddy are heading to the coast for a few days and even though our Grandpa from KS is here taking care of us, he's not able to help us comment on blogs.  Thanks for understanding!

Celebration Time!

Today is the 23rd anniversary of my Mommy and Daddy's Gotcha Day. To reminisce about that day (aka to remember because it was so, so long ago!), Mommy pulled out the album that Edi made for her...
Are we going to have to look through it Mommy? How'd I get stuck looking at photos? My kitty sisfurs were pretty smart to stay downstairs nappin'...
Enough with the photos Mommy! I bet I can find something better to do today...
A field trip is the bestest way to celebrate Mommy and Daddy's anniversary! I'm going to take them somewhere fun today so I may not get to comment on your blog. My kitty sisfurs are home but they are enjoying World Cat Day by doing what cats do best... A whole lot of nothin!

Happy 23rd Anniversary to my Mommy and Daddy!
Sadie

PeeS: Happy World Cat Day to all the kitties out there and the honorary kitties like me too!

Sunday Celebration

Today is our Mommy and Daddy's 22nd anniversary! Since their Gotcha Day was 8-8-88, we had Edi from Memories for Life Scrapbooks make them an album so they'd never forget their day...

and they'll never forget how young they looked a squizillion years ago either...

Thanks Edi for making such a great album for our mommy and daddy! We all really like it very much! We really like the ribbon on it too!

Happy Anniversary Mommy and Daddy!

We'd also like to say Happy World Cat Day to all our kitty furiends and to all the honorary kitties too like our sisfur Sadie!

Here's a link to our post from World Cat Day 2009 about the kitties before us - Reebok and Panther.

Have a great Sunday!

August 8, 2008

Today, 8-8-08, is our 20th wedding anniversary so hubby and I are going to the Oregon coast for the day and taking Sadie with us so she can romp on the beach. Isabella and Angel will be taking care of business while we are out enjoying the weather - if they can stay awake!

Thanks J for bringing me so much happiness the past 20 years and I'm looking forward to all the years and happiness to come!

Another reason why I love Etsy!

As I've stated in several previous posts, I have many reasons why I love Etsy - not only as a seller but also as a buyer. I wanted to share an experience with a wonderful Etsian that I came across last week - Cisco from mncmoon. Cisco makes hand stamped word art sterling silver jewelry and she is very talented at what she does. Last week I had sent her a convo (same as email but through Etsy) asking her questions about one of her pendants. She responded quickly and said that for the font I wanted, the pendant would have to be different than pictured since the font was too big to fit on the pendant I was asking about. Since I'm not good at picturing what things would look like without the materials right in front of me (I'm a CPA with way too much left brain), I told her I would just go with the one already in her shop.

Cisco then surprised me with a convo saying that she wanted to make a pendant like she was describing to me anyway and she'd go ahead and do it for a sample of future listings in her shop. I was under no obligation if I didn't like it. She said she had already started stamping it! I'm so glad she made it because when she sent me the pictures of the final product, I was blown away! I absolutely loved it! It's perfect and it couldn't be more "me"! I can't wait to get it and I know I'll love it even more in person!

As you can tell by the date, this pendant is a gift to myself to celebrate our upcoming 20th anniversary. I wanted something special and thanks to Cisco, I got that and more!

Cisco is having a "Christmas in July" sale through July 31st so if you are in need of a gift for yourself or for someone special, be sure to check out her shop. She has lots of beautiful pieces to choose from and she does custom orders too!
