Tough Days........

So sorry we were MIA!  Our Dad had a relapse with his problems but now it looks like he is gonna be OK. Our Grammom is not doing well so Mommy has to spend more time with her and get her to move around more often. She is getting her times mixed up and not sleeping through the night so Mommy hasn't had decent sleep in weeks!
The kitchen drain leaked a few days ago making a mess, the dishwasher door spring broke and Mom can't find the insurance info,  her kitchen TV quit so she had to find a new one to fit and the washer is not well!!!!

On the upside, Boomer, (oldest son) is almost finished replacing the upper back deck steps with vinyl composite materials. He had replaced the lower steps awhile ago but then hurt his back. Now, thank cod,  he is doing much better.

Mom said she will try and help us blog and visit at least a couple times a week, it depends on how our Grammom is doing.  We promised to be on our very best behavior =^Y^=

Happy Earth Day!

Bubbles!

Ty, "Bubbles, catnip bubbles!  They are not as scary as real bubbles that pop! Trouble is they just stick there where they land, like on my face!
Mom tried to make up for not spending enough time with us 'cause of shopping for our almost empty cupboards. Dad is finally feeling better, the bad meds are wearing off so they have been going to get our food, litter, human food and FLOUNDER!!!  We forgive you Mom.........Flounder tonight..YES!"

"Thomas is not so scared of the bubbles any more so he swats the little ones. He hasn't noticed the bubble stuck in his wiskers....that will be fun to watch!"

"Oh great, got one stuck over my eye.........Thomas still hasn't felt the big bubble on the back of his head......more in coming!"
"Mom got a tab up below our main photo but she can't get more then the title to work..........her weekend project!!!"=^Y^=

Wordless Whicker Wednesday

TWA Tabby Tuesday

 Thomas, "Ty why are you hiding in the rug?"
 Ty,  When Mom can't find me and I jump out, she will be so happy to see me. She will pick me up and hugg me and kiss me........I LOVE THAT!

 Thomas, "Don't you think she will see that the rug is slid into the chair so she will first pull it hard, back where it belongs?"
Ty, "Na, she will never suspect a thing."

Thomas, "OK, have a nice flight........sheez"

ManCat Monday

Da Mom, "Ty, what are you doing?"
TyGr," I'm trying to whistle back to the loud bird out here!"  
Da Mom, Honey, cats can't whistle but you can try."

 TyGr, "Sheez,my tongue is getting tired!"
Da Mom, "Well, if you keep practicing someday you just might whistle."

TyGr, "My tongue is tired so I'm going to let it have a nappy time.........zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz"=^Y^=

Thankful Thursday

Tinker, "Tuesday and Wednesday we finally got to play on the deck! It was sunny and warm, the birds were chirping up a storm which came last night. We are not used to lightning flashes or the loud booms.

 My tail is showing the bird thermometer of how warm it was all day Tuesday and Wednesday. Winter is finally out of here, yeah!
When Mommy was working in the barn Monday,  she brought out these mushroom chairs the humans take to the park. They don't want to sit on the poopy benches!
Yesterday Mom and Mike took lots of stuff from the barn to the Mennonite shop but she came home with a new quilt for Grammom's bed, a rooster plate and a wood picture frame with glass that matches frames Mom puts our enlarged photos in after painting the frames black.

Sorry we have not blogged for a few days, Dad was put on a med last fall that built up in his only kidney and it finally showed up causing him painful gout. He went to a foot doctor which did extensive blood work and that is how he found out. His heart doctor fixed his meds and now Dad is feeling better today. 
Dad had lots of bad pain in one foot, then the other so he couldn't work in his food garden, now he knows he can get his new plants in soon.  We are thankful he is feeling better and will be able to do what he looks forward to doing after a LONG winter....Gardening! =^Y^=

Wordless Wednesday, Teak

Teak, (water colors)

Thomas Tuesday

Thomas," Now....where is my new toy.......Mommy said she put it in here when she was cleaning up after my party."

 "Where is it.........she said it was in the top drawer but I don't see it!"

 "Hey I forgot about this toy........and this one is cool too.........and a little green mouse......wait, ....what was I looking for??????????"

Oh yeah, my  "FEFFERS!"

Happy 2ond Birthday, Thomas!

Today is my 2ond birthday and this in not an April fools joke! There are 3 candles on my cake but one is for love! This morning Mommy surprised us by opening up the door to the deck and we had fun! We climbed our cat trees and ran in and out of the house. It was a fun day and now it's nap time=^Y^=

Happy Easter

Happy Easter to all our furends !!Teak Bunny and the Boyz and (Mom Holly)

Thankful Thursday

 TyGr, "We are thankful Mommy brought down our wicker bed from the art room.

"She placed it snug onto of one of our toy boxes which she found at the Care & Share Shop. It used to be a foot stool with sewing storage in the 3 drawers. Mom knew it would be purrrfect for our toys. 

I am also thankful for the time Mommy spends with all of us. I surprised her last night with jumping up in her lap while she was relaxing, watching a movie. I rolled on my back and purrrrrd so loud, she smiled and hugged me=^Y^=

Wordless Wednesday

=^Y^=

Spring Snow!

Toy," Mom.......Let me OUT!  I don't care if it's snowing, it's spring for pete's sake!"

Toy, "She is not listening to me, just keeps taking pictures with her camera, Sheez...."

 ICE, "Well I get out and later I get out in the big yard!"

Keeping the birds happy

New Toy

STRING FLING!

Feffers!

 Thomas,"I love feffers as much as Tang..........notice my ears!"

 "They don't have a bird smell....I don't know why I just want to rip them apart?"

"Between my strong fists and my sharp teeth, Mommy has lost this feffer antagonizer forever!"

Keeping up with the furkids

 We woke to snow again! Mom's pink pampas grass, diamond and zebra grass just shipped today.

 Thomas, " Nope, the sun is nowhere in sight.........."

ICE, "What cat toy in my mouth.....(snicker) catch me if you can"...........................zooooomies=^Y^=

Needing SPRING!

 Tinker has not been feeling well..........Mommy has been babying him, his peeing problem came back.......Mom thinks it was because of salmon for lunch 3 days in a row because Dad's foot swelled so they hadn't gone shopping for more chicken.

Dad's a bit better, he is at the Doctor's office today and we now have chicken! Mom has been giving me Pedialyte and water round the clock so I am not spitting up and I am eating better.

We miss the open windows and we are totally sick, sick, sick of snow at this point!!!!
A slight warm up yesterday so Mom opened the window for just a few minutes. We begged for more time but she said the heat was still on so .....by fresh air...sniff  sniff.  
Easter is just a few days away so maybe soon.....but can we trust a rabbit to bring spring..........look what happened when we trusted the stupid groundhog, early spring, yeah, RIGHT! Wonder what groundhog taste like? =^Y^=
