Sorry I haven't posted today....

I've had SUCH a migraine!

The Berry Snatcher

Write this day down in history....I finally got a good photo of one of our cardinals! Many hours of bone-chilling-sitting-butt-on-driveway and squatting-in-bushes-til-feet-went-numb went into trying to capture a good photo of one of these birds. Not to mention as I "stalk" our fine feathered friends, I usually have a furry friend rubbing around my ankles the entire time. (Um, that would be NIKKO who is the culprit! LOL)

Anyway, I'm so excited I've finally captured this beautiful bird. You can get a signed print here if you would like one.

My Christmas Present from my Husband

Isn't it sweet? He went outside and picked me a flower. I figured I'd better get a photo, as I knew it wouldn't live long. That teacup is a miniature from a china set I played tea with at my grandparents house back in Pennsylvania when I used to visit as a little girl. (yeah, it's pretty old. :))

I've put a verse with this and edited the print for production. You can see the print here in my new Etsy print shop, and products with this image at JaiCards.Com.

Oreo's in big, big, big trouble!

Pssst....Oreo is in big trouble. HUGE. She did something very, very bad today!

Mom was so upset with her...and she had to do it on Christmas....tsk, tsk, tsk.
Shame on you Oreo!

I don't understand what the big deal is. It's Christmas. So I brought home Christmas dinner for the family. Big deal....you think my brothers and sisters would *appreciate* that nice big fat squirrel I hauled up the driveway. I mean, gosh, it's definitely a better meal than the bird I captured on Thanksgiving day. But nooooooo...one of them was a big tattletale and ran to tell Mom. She wasn't too happy with me. But she'll get over it. The next time I give her one of those cute-kitty-looks...we'll be best buddies again. :)

Merry Christmas...and HAPPY NEW YEAR!

We wish you a Merry Christmas...we wish you a Merry Christmas...
We wish you a Merry Christmas........& a HAPPY NEWWWWW YEAR!

Merry Christmas & Happy New Year from Oreo, Rowdy & Nikko!

One tasty eyeball....

The kittens received a tantalizing catnip eyeball for Christmas. Oreo is shown here giving the eyeball the official kitty workout. Of course, she hogs the eyeball side to herself, so you can't see it in these photos which Bill took with that wonderful new lens (oh how I long for a Nikon....with all of those awesome lenses...sigh). Click on the link above to see what this adorable catnip toy looks like on the eyeball side!

You can take the bacon out of the pig...

....but you can't take the pig out of the bacon.

This is the only piece of bacon left after all other pieces were eaten today. His "tail" is actually a separate tiny piece that just happens to be laying there...right in the perfect position. I haven't touched the bacon - I haven't edited the photo other than to add my name at the bottom right. Cool, huh? :)
