I am Twelve today

 Today is my twelfth birthday! I made it to the big OneTwo!

Mom bought me a big fancy cookie for my special day~

I am NOT a princess.    I just don't want to eat it off the plate!

Much better.   Thank you, mom!

Gotta get every single crumb!

Mom made the wall hanging ages ago that's hanging to my left.  Can you guess which one is me?!☺   Mitch and Maggie are there too♥

Thank you so much Miss Ann and Juney for my beautiful birthday art!    Mom and I love it!   You are always so generous and sweet and caring♥

Mom tells me there may be ice cream in the freezer for me one day this week☺

I can't wait!

Love ya lots♥

His quotes are the very bestest!

Happy Birthday, Dr Seuss!

Nature Friday

 We are joining Sunny today for Nature Friday~~

Mom asked me if I wanted to go next door with her to see Landlord Bob.  

I'm checking on the puffer mushrooms.   Yup, they're still there and still puffing~

Ding dong - ding dong.  We are here the pay the rent!

This is the last of the snow in my yard.  

We wanted to see how the Hellebores were doing on the south side of the house~

Mom blindly stuck her camera underneath one of the flowers.    

Happy Friday and Happy First Day of March, everybuddy!

Love ya lots♥

Tasty Tuesday

 Once a year, my mom makes her mom's Cherry Cobbler with the canned tart cherries and the tapioca and she remembers the wonderful memories of sitting at the dinner table with her family and enjoying her mom's homemade desserts.  Her mom was a dessert lover so there was ALWAYS dessert if you ate all of your dinner.  

My birthday is this coming weekend.   How would this painting look on our wall, mom?   *hint hint*

Love ya lots♥

Nature Friday

 We are joining Rosy this week for Nature Friday~~

We did get out for walkies a couple of times but we didn't find much color.

We did find more color right in our backyard!   The Hellebores are blooming but they don't seem to want to stand up straight and hold their heads proud.

The Hyacinth is poking through the soil~

The Magnolia is budding!

It's nice standing in the sun on the south side of the house.   

Happy Friday, everybuddy!

Love ya lots♥

Tasty Tuesday

 Mom hasn't had custard since she was much younger and lived at home and her mom made it for the family of five and that was a very long time ago.  She can remember the round glass pyrex dish her mom used and it was so yummy.   Ours is a much smaller amount but the wonderful taste and memories come flooding back.  

Yup, it's just as tasty as you said it would be, mom!

Who can be in the snow and not want to roll in it?!

Don't be fooled.   We have the sun and beautiful blue skies but the temps are hovering around freezing and the wind chill makes it feel even colder.  

Happy Tuesday, everybuddy!

Love ya lots♥

Nature Friday

We are joining Rosy and Sunny this week for Nature Friday~~

Mom, your shadow is photoBombing my snowRoll!

There - that's better~

What a beautiful day but truth be told - I am limpies once again and this time it's not lickies.   Mom thinks it's the arthritis issue and I don't get my next Librela injection until next Friday.   In the meantime, we will double up on the Dasuquin and see if that helps.   

This photo was taken the day of the storm.   The only birch trees we have are in the woods.   

Five more minutes, mom - pretty please~

Happy Friday, everybuddy!

Love ya lots♥

A Snowy Valentine's Day

Snow fell for around 12 hours yesterday.   It started in the very early morning and ended around 1pm.  Mom had been praying for hours that the snowblower would start for her.   

We had a wonderful surprise.   Farmer Will plowed the driveway for us!   What a great neighbor and we are so appreciative!  Thank you so much, Will!

The little bit of shoveling that she did was back breaking as this snow is very wet and very heavy.   

We didn't measure it outside but when we got back inside, mom measured my leg that was underneath the snow and it seems we got around eight to nine inches.   It was blowing as it was coming down so it's deeper in some places than others.   

The temps were cold last night so we are so happy and thankful that we don't have to deal with ice in the driveway for two weeks like the last time.  

 

Love ya lots♥

Molly Monday

 We had high 20's for our walk this morning~

Are you ready for the snowstorm, duckies?!   The weather peeps are saying 8 inches to a foot but it's going to be the wet heavy stuffs and not the nice fluffy snow -  bummer.  

Mom's latest puzzle~

She said it was a real doozy!

Happy Monday, everybuddy!

Love ya lots♥

Nature Friday

 We are joining Rosy and Sunny this week for Nature Friday~~

We had twenty degree temps on Wednesday morning with a wind chill so mom decided that Mitch's coat was a must wear for me.  She was reading that pups with dementia would prefer to be warm.  We can do that!

We don't see a whole lot of green in the neighborhood yet but this Yucca is green enough!

Mom can't remember the last time we walked all the way to the "secret garden".   It's been months!

And a wee bit past the secret garden - look mom!   Who has a horse around here?!  Can you see how tightly she's holding my leash?   She doesn't want me snacking or rolling.   She's such a pawty pooper!

And to brighten your Friday.   Mom was at Van Wilgen's once again checking out the Orchids.    She would love to have one but she's afraid that once the flowers fall off, she will never get it to bloom again.   

Happy Friday, everybuddy!

Love ya lots♥
