Crazy Cat Lady!

Samantha is officially a crazy cat lady in training. The other morning, Sarah went upstairs to see if Sammie was still asleep. She found her laying with all of the cats in their makeshift bed (in the corner of the extra room) talking to them and telling them nonsense stories.

Even her pajamas have cats on them.

At least she wasn't sharing their food and using the litter box.

Fun with the Romneys!

A couple of weeks ago my sister Jeni brought her kids over on her way up to Las Vegas. They all had a good time playing together and just being cousins.

Tate got to stay with us for 5 days while they were in Vegas. Taylor was in Heaven and was really sad to see him go.

playing in the backyard sprinklers! (grass is looking good)

Tate showing off for the ladies!

can you pick out the Mexican Natives? I didn't think so.

Happy 91st Birthday Poppy!

I don't know if Poppy (my grandpa, my dad's dad) reads my blog at all, but I just wanted to wish him a Happy 91st Birthday!

If you are lucky enough to know Poppy, he has surely blessed your life. He is a shining example to his children, grandchildren, and great grandchildren (he has quite a few). Much of the good that I have become as a father and husband (I don't need to hear your comments) I owe either directly or indirectly to him thru my dad. He believes in serving the Lord, being righteous, and working hard. He is stubborn enough to get anything done that he sets his mind to. He also believes that everything looks better with a nice coat of paint.

We love you Poppy and look forward to seeing you soon!

By the way, I really hope that he doesn't read my blog, it is much too rude!

Also, Nonny, I really like your green hairbow in the picture.

Kitty Litter

Sophie had her babies on Sunday night (well early monday morning actually). 2 male, 2 female and I think the father must have been a rat because they don't look much like cats yet. They are going to be given away in 7 weeks. Any takers?

The Cat Groomer

Samantha treats the cats like her babies, and last week decided that Stella needed her fur styled. She grabbed a brush and a spray bottle and started going to town. I'm pretty sure the cat would have rather died than get her hair done, especially when Sammie repeatedly sprayed her with water (while holding her in a death grip).With Sophie's help, however, Samantha go the job done.

So Fresh and So Clean!

Samantha is a lot like her mother. She likes to take baths, do her hair and nails, and loves to do her makeup. She thinks that it makes her look "Popular!"

What did the Fish say when it swam into the concrete wall?

On Saturday, Ashley was swimming underwater and swam into the side of the pool. It left its mark with a nice little strawberry under her left eye. Unlike the fish, Ashley only said, "Ouch!"

It didn't make her happy (as you can tell from the photo) but it did turn her lips green!
