Weekend Wrap Up

We hope you had a wonderful weekend! We had a mostly sunny weekend which meant our peeps started cleaning up the yard. This can't be done without my snoopervision...
I meowed lots of direction and of course Mommy answered me back. Daddy is sure the neighbors wonder what kind of weeds are actually growing in our yard. Anyway, it was tiring work so I spent the evening cuddling with my sisfur...
Daddy took that picture of us and he was under the impression we'd look at him if he made funny noises. Uh, yeah, no. 

Anything exciting happen over your weekend?

Happy Monday!

Finally Friday

We're so glad it's Friday!  We've had a busy week preparing tax returns and watching it rain...
But the sun came back out yesterday for the first time since our new landscaping was done which reminded us that we never showed photos.  We'll blame that on Mommy of course but anyway, let's start with the before view from the deck...
Behind the evergreen trees was a pathway that was pretty much only used by the neighbor cat Dooney since it was made of lava rock which Mommy hated...
After 11 days of working with just one day off, the landscapers transformed the previously unusable space to a new very usable space...
Mommy still has to stain the replaced board in the deck and figure out what she wants to plant in all the new space but she's very happy with the quartz stone pathway which leads to a patio in the back...
She also loves the view from the patio of the snow covered Three Sisters which you can kinda see in this photo through the hazy sky...
There's a view the other direction too - of the new indoor only neighbor kitties watching Mommy!
Those kitties made her smile!  We have noticed that since the landscape change, the outdoor neighbor cats don't visit as often which is an added bonus!  Especially since Daddy will be putting up the bird feeder again this weekend - yay!

Mommy and Daddy took the day off today so we're going to enjoy a long, sunpuddle filled weekend!

Happy Friday and have a great weekend!

Private (or not so) Thoughts...

*sniff sniff*
I smell ya Azalea!
Ha roo roo!  I crack myself up!
Oh, hey there Mommy.  How long you been there?
What's a dog gotta do to get some privacy on my own deck?

Hope you can sniff like no one is around!

It's Sadieday but No Stroll Today...

Yay it's Sadieday, my favorite day of the week!  Usually I'd be getting ready for a stroll today but I'm under orders from the v-e-t to not go strolling for awhile because I can't wear a collar due to the stitches on my neck.  He's a party pooper.  To get my mind off strolling, Mommy took me outside to enjoy some sunlight on my furs.  She wanted me to lay on a rug so I didn't get the stitches on my side dirty.  Well, I got close...
It's not my fault if I get dirty anyway - she's the one who hasn't cleaned the deck yet this spring...
She tried again later and I at least got ON the rug this time...
But just as a pit stop to some exploring...
It's Sadieday so I get to do as I please!
Thanks to everybuddy for the continued concern and well wishes.  I'm getting better each day.  On Thursday I started scratching my neck but I didn't snag any stitches like Mommy thought I would.  I've left the stitches on my side alone - so far.  As long as the treats keep coming, I'll be on my best behavior and the treats have certainly been coming! Mommy has made me rice and ham every day and even Daddy let me have some vanilla ice cream and he NEVER shares his ice cream!  I'm going to milk this as long as I can!

I hope you get out and enjoy a stroll for me this Sadieday!  
Happy Mother's Day tomorrow to all the Mom's of kids with and without fur too!

Happy Sadieday!

It's Sadieday! My favorite day of the week! Today I wanted to let you know that I made Mommy and Daddy finally fix up the ugly rock bed that was beside MY deck. You saw it when the neighbor cat Dooney was lounging in it the other day and it was even the background of some photos Mommy took of me although I really poured on the cuteness to keep the attention away from the ugly rock bed behind me...
It was so bad, I didn't even want to be photographed with it although I forgot to put down my tail...
I did put down my paw and said enough is enough - fix up MY yard! They were pretty clueless on what to do but it ended up looking pretty good if I say so myself...
All the neighbor cat smells are gone and I'm going to do my best to keep it that way...
Now I'm proud to show my cute face with MY new flower bed!
As an added bonus, Mommy likes to sit outside with me more since it's relaxing to look at plants rather than the ugly rock bed. And because she's out here, I'm going to go right on over and get a scritch or two behind my ears!
Hope you have a happy and relaxed Sadieday!

Guard Dog Extraordinaire

When I'm outside in the wild, wild back yard with Mommy, I'm always on guard duty to make sure nothing tries to get in our yard like one of the neighbor cats or even an opossum. I sit with my cute patooty towards her in order to have the best vantage point to see any danger lurking.
I may be looking away from her but I'm always listening to what she's doing.
And then I check out the other side for any wayward intruders.
Can't be too cautious for my Mommy!
Now if you'll excuse me, I need to get back to my guard duty.
Hope you have a safe and fun Monday!

Happy Sadieday!

It's my favorite day of the week - Sadieday! Today I thought I'd take you into our backyard to see some of our fallen leaves.
This is just a little pile of leaves because Daddy already picked some up but I think they can still be fun.
Yep, they can be lots of fun!
Come on Mommy, let's do that again!
Ha roo roo!
That was fun! Thanks for playing along with me!
Hope you have a fun Sadieday too!
