HAPPY MEMORIAL DAY TO ALL YOU CATS!

HOPE you are enjoying your day like a cool cat should...

STORMY WEATHER........

Today we had some interesting weather here in the desert of Washington...thunder...lots of rain...then wind and hail!  We do not get this but maybe once in a half dozen years...we were very excited...the rain was coming down sideways and mommy had to mop up in the garage by the leaky door...it was fun!  We are changing the garage that used to be Lapdaddy's wood working shop into a small family room...it is almost done and I am having fun playing with all my toys on the bare floor.

 So this Sunday I am going to beg for some snacks...

 Sit with mommy for a bit and then snuggle up with my Lapdaddy and we will take a nappy together...maybe the sun will come out tomorrow...isn't there a song like that?

CELEBRATION AT THE COZY COTTAGE....

 Mommy and Lapdaddy are celebrating being married for 20 years! 

 Lemon poppy seed with white chocolate frosting...this is the lighthouse they were married in.  Yaquina Bay in Newport Oregon.

 Celebrating springtime in the cozy cottage garden...the hostas are stunning and huge this season...

 Our favorite rose in the whole world is the climbing Eden

 This one is French Lace...

 She is sweet and delicate...

 The white lavender and the rugosa rose are thriving...

 But the stunning Eden is the masterpiece of the front garden...

 Well....since this is my bloggy...here are some snaps of me...I was in a hurry to get away because I was afraid mommy was going to wash my face...

She is covering the mailbox...the good news is that she is thornless!

 This little rose bush is called Ballerina...we love our pink roses...the heat of summer will put this show to bed soon enough, so we are enjoying it while it lasts.

It rained today all day long...what a welcome sound...since we live in the desert of Washington, this was a real treat and something we will long for in the heat of summer...wishing you all a lovely Sunday and a blessed week ahead...

REMEMBERING MOTHER'S TODAY...

 We wish you a wonderful Mother's Day today...This is our beautiful Miss Hunny Bunny with her kittens.  I took this photo through a knothole in the fence.  They were living in the crawl space of the house next door.  Of course we lured them all into the cozy cottage garden to tame them and get the spayed and neutered and find them homes.  Bunny we kept...she was special...I miss her dreadfully.

 She was a wonderful mommy to her three kits...

Out sweet Miss Hope with her first litter of kiddens...she only had one kit with her second litter...then she was spayed...came to live with us from Texas.  We remember all of our mommies today...they made our lives wonderful.  This is my mother on her wedding day in Germany 1959.  She was my best friend and I miss her so much.
