Our flowers....

Well, part of da excuse dat Momma makes fur neglectin' her secrementarial duties as regards my blog is  dat she's got some gardenin' to do. Now I luvs da flowers and evfun enjoy sniffin' em sometimes, but I still thinks dat is no reason to fall down on da job. But since she knows some of ya is just now gettin' some Spring, we thought we'd share some pics of our Spring 'round here...

First comes da azaleas...

And along about da same time as the azaleas comes da bearded irises....

And there are more on da way... Momma picks ones that bloom at different times so we has irises fur a couple of months (followed by daylilies). A lot of da orange ones in pots are gonna go in da area of da garden where Charlie and Jezebel, along with Hank the basset's ashes,  are buried. Momma is ordering some orange daylilies and some orange and black ones fur Jez's area... and next fall will order some orange and black irises for Jez's area, too. She is gonna plant some peach and orange roses over there, too...

We also has some dutch iris, siberian iris, and roses bloomin'.....

My momma is such a gardenin' nut, she evfun has flowers in da house! Here is an orchid that just started bloomin'...

On Thursday, we opened da pool for POOL BALL! I evfun got in and played some. Dey got us a new float since da old one was fallin' apart... And today we did our usual zombie patrol of da nayborhood... we saw a bunch of skwirrelz but dat wuz purdy much it fur da zombiez....

As the chuckle fur da day, here is a pic Momma took of Travis da cat LOOMIN' ovfur da people tryin' to snag some bacon. The lil stinker got more bacon than Whit & me did this mornin'... sumthin' about us not eatin' all our breakfasts or some such nonsense....

Bark ya later, gators!

Road Trips, Awards, and Catchin' Up....

Dis are gonna be a kinda long post cuz my secrementary has been woefully inadequate as of late cuz of Easter, makin' da Easter eggs, Easter dresses, gardenin', etc... I appreciamatates all da sewin' she duz cuz I wouldn't have dresses & vests and all my onesies dat keep da pollens off of me, but she needs to get her tushie in gear as far as my blog goes...

Roadtrip Nummer One:
Furst, we (me, Whitley, da mommas and Ally) went to see Momma's folks down in Kerrville... dey are really nice and I gots to snoopervise me some barbequin'... I always snoopervises da outdoors grillin'...

Yep, dat are me in da background while my Momma's Daddy are grillin'.... I nevfur leaves meatz unattended on da grill... ya nevfur knows when some burd might swoop down and steal it or some evil skwirrel try to steals it. So I stays dere and guards it. Always.

Whitley barked da pups next door, da deer dat came by, you name it, she barked it. She are a barkin' machine. 

On da way home, we stopped at EZ's in Austin and I begged fur some food....

Wouldn't you share your food wid me? Dat face worked on Momma and she gave me some of her chicken sandwich...yum!

Road Trip Nummer Two:

Den dis week we tooks a road trip to Ennis, Texas, about an hour from here and followed da map dey puts out of where to see da flowers... we saw lotsa purdy flowers...

Today we went fur our walk and den I gots a bath. Again. Right now I's gettin' 'em every udder day cuz my itchies is bad cuz of all da pollen. But it sure are a purdy time of year 'round here. Momma's garden is bloomin' all kinds of purdy flowers.... but I's gonna make her wait until tomorrow to show ya.

I gots an award I gots to answer cuz Whitley gave me dis here award... Thanks, Whitley!

Ok, so here's my three things I's thankful fur.....

1. Walkies... I luvs my walkies. It are my chance to patrol da nayborhood fur skwirrels, bunnies, zombies, and zombie skwirrels. 

2. Belly rubs. They's da best. I just crawls up on da nearest available lap and flops over like I'm sittin' right upright next to 'em. Dat are their clue to start rubbin' my belly. 

3. Toys. I's da Queen of Toys. I luvs, luvs, luvs toys. I can smell when a new toy comes inta da house. I has been known to grab da whole bag from da pet store and try to run away wiff it.  All toys is good toys and all toys is mine. Even if dey aren't.
