Dallas Leg

We crashed at the kids house last night, and had breakfast with the girls this morning.

Jaeley woke up happy


Sydney woke up hungry

Gelsey made the pancakes and they were really yummy
but...can someone please pass Lezley the syrup already!

We didn't get to see Kelsey this trip, she was with her
other Grandma this weekend.

Next .......Oklahoma

Road Trip!

Strangely I have found myself with no clients this weekend and John has 3 days off so decided to hop in the car for a quick road trip to decorate some graves that are very dear to our hearts.
I'll post along the way.

Have a safe Memorial Day my friends...PJ

Topsy Turvy Sucks: Part 3

My Topsy Turvy tomato is still growing...UP


The cukes are looking good.
I asked John to thin them from three down to
two plants but....


He felt bad for plant 3 and gave him it's own
little pot. A second chance he said.
Talk about soft hearted!


More later...

Astros show off for Mom

What a pretty day it was at the Minute Maid Park today. The top was UP. We play baseball INside in Houston.

Junction Jack brought his Mom to the game today.
The baseball earrings are must haves..lol

Not only did the players bring the Mom's they let
them throw out the first pitch

And... we won!


Mom's got a chance to run the bases.
That's me in the white tank and skort waving like a dork.
I hope all you Mom's had a great day too..;)


Take Me Out to the Ballgame

We are headed out to Minute Maid to watch Roy O hopefully take one for the 'Stros

Happy Mother's Day!

Two PURRdays and one anniFURSery

Happy PURRday to Rhett turning 5 this week.

We were concerned about bringing in a second cat,
but thought it may be nice for Rafe to have a
companion and he was thrilled


Happy PURRday to Rico turning 3 this week.

We were concerned about bringing in a third cat,
but he was so darn cute I could not resist him.
Rafe was thrilled to have a kitten to play with
Rhett....not so much.


Happy Gotcha Day LOST litter

2 years ago on Mothers Day, our porch kitty Angel
presented her adorable litter of four
doubling our cat total to eight

We were concerned about adding 4 more cats to the household
but got Angel and baby Jack safely
placed with my Mom and
daughter respectively

Of course...
Kate, Sawyer, and Charlie
are still here rounding out our 6-pack

The Friday Ark

The Carnival of Cats



Topsy Turvy Sucks: Part Two

My poor Topsy Turvy Tomato is having a

of growing upside down

The plants we did in pots however....

are showing promise!

Topsy Turvy Sucks

OK, so we carefully read and followed the instructions
inside the box and both plants have died already.


So we will try again, using only one plant this time


This was my pretty trumpet plant, it did
not recover from Ike.


We are going to use that little space to kill grow
some yummy cucumbers.

It was quite the event!

Topsy Turvy is UP

The full page of instructions inside the box
were a little more complicated
than the 3 steps listed outside the box,
but we have it up just the same.


Now I am just waiting for the big juicy tomatoes to start
popping out all over the place
just like they do on the
Topsy Turvy infomercial.

We could get "up to 30 pounds"
Yum!

new kitty condo
