"And that's what I think of that!"

Editor's note: This is not my reaction to the "Stylish Blogger Award" passed along to me from Elizabeth over at Chronicles of Cardigan. I will have to blog my acceptance speech another time...still trying to gather my own nominees. It is just a funny moment I caught while Reese enjoyed her pig ear. I NEVER catch these moments normally! Yay me! =)

Nom nom nom...

The big fur-kids got a couple of new choice chewies today.

We took Wally on a field-trip (read: socialization outing) to the Iowa Pet Foods store where he got pats and smiles outta people and met a nice lady that thought he was just "beautiful." =] While there, we picked out a nice beef snout and pig ear for Walt and Reese to try out. They enthusiastically ripped into them as soon as we got home, and I was able to catch the reaction on video. Yay me!

Wuv.

Reese and Wally have been getting along pretty well. They really wear each other out, for which we are VERY grateful. =)

Imagine a heart shape. Awww. =]

Saturday Blog Hop: This picture deserves its own post.

First off, let me give you a little back story...

The cats were being extra annoying all week around Thanksgiving last year (yes, these pictures are kinda old). See - they like to be little furry buttheads in the morning if their food bowls are empty. When we finally got annoyed enough to get outta bed and look, sure enough - their food bowls were empty. How could that be? Each night we had filled the food bowls with their allotted food because we know how annoying they are in the mornings when they are empty. It just did not add up. They don't go through food that fast. Begrudginly (cuz we were hoping this wasn't going to be a trend and we were hopefully not going to end up with tub-o-lard sized kitties), we filled the bowls up again and went to take our showers.

Har, har, har. I know what you're thinking...but, we DID NOT set these shots up.

Ryan got done with his shower first and came through the family room on his way to the bedroom. I hear him laugh out loud and yell, "You gotta see this!" I come running around the corner and Reese was happy as a clam on the TOP tier of the cat tree, cocking her head and wagging her tail with such self-satisfaction and gloating on her face it was hard not to erupt in hysterics. So...seems we had a cat-food vacuum infiltrating the [supposedly dog-proof] feeding stations on their cat tree. We figured she must've jumped from the recliner to the side table and onto the cat tree with ease. Needless to say, we moved the end-table to the other side of the recliner after this episode. All of a sudden, the cat-harrassment and empty-bowl drama cleared itself up. =->

Some good pics

So we got a little card adapter thingymajig that allows us to take the pictures off of Ryan's phone and put them straight onto the computer instead of having to email them to myself (and the long, arduous process of saving them, resizing, etc. that ensues). I had previously posted some pics that weren't of the best quality, so I wanted to re-post them as they were meant to be seen. There are also some new ones that I didn't have the patience to email to myself before too.

Reese with the kitties in the guest room.

This one's new - That is Jon teaching me how to cut! ha

Yay! I made it to the bottom of the bunny hill. ha

Remember this? I wiped out under that tree. =)

This one was fuzzy and small before - at the top of the hill.

Ha - my first-aid station appearance.

New one. Ry & me...just takin a break in the chalet.

The blanket wasn't enough.

That blur? The Reeser molesting her boyfriend Jon.

Yep, she climbed up and over the couch cuz she was so excited to see him. =) Goofy girl.

Reese and Walt thought my lap looked empty.

I just love this one of Loki. He looks so regal.

Sulley's cocoon.

Hmm, I guess that works.

I hate having my pic taken.

Again with the "snow puma." Fits him well, no?
