My Labor Day weekend

We did something fun this weekend... We (well, the Momma and the Daddy - I don't like to go in the car thingy because you know where they always go... to the v-e-t) went rock shopping !  Now I know there are rocks outside the house.. but we love them.  the Momma and the Daddy like to go on vacation and they always bring rocks home from the beaches.  Up in this part of Michigan we have a really cool kind of stone called a Pee-toskey Stone!  People come from all over to find them, they are pretty nifty.  Me,  I like the colored ones the best, and especiall the sparkly ones.  This is my Amethyst.  As soon as the Momma unwrapped it, it was MINE!  I slimed it to make sure. 





 It makes me feel calm and peaceful, even when my brothers want to bug me.  And speaking of bugs, some people say that amethyst helps to keep us free of fleas !  What a deal !  Now, we've never had fleas, and we've always had amethysts in the house.... I'm just sayin'.  MOL!

Anyway, both the Momma and the Daddy got some cool new stones and I will have to check them out later.  For now I'm gonna hang out with this beauty and stretch an easy Sunday into Monday...


 
Oh, and the closest I got to labor this weekend was staying out out of the way of the Momma and the Daddy drying their wall ?  I think they said... it did not look fun. 

Labor Day ... what's that??!!

I don't DO "labor" so this is how I'm spending my day!!

zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

Happy Snoozin' Day out there, y'all!

Watz Up Labor Day Weekend?

For the tabbies in the US its a long holiday weekend celebrating the end of summer and working stiffs like the mom! Since I only do what I want, I'm not sure if I qualify, but I'm ready to do my part.

The mom went to her sister's little farm for a cook out.  She came back with a hurted foot (stumbled over an exposed tree root) and some sad news.  Her sister had a tabby, Gumdrop, for many years and he crossed the Bridge earlier this summer.  I was bequeathed his warm kitty blankie.  Inside is a crinkly sounding metallic space blankie so its soft, warm and sounds too cool!

Farewell sweet Gummy, sweet dreams!

I'm celebrating you in a way you would appreciate!

My Labor Day Weekend

How will I spend my Labor Day weekend? Why hanging out with my mancat,Tamir. I thought really hard about we should do and came up with the purrrfect idea . . .

. . . we are heading out for a Disney cruise . . . here we are with Mickey as we boarded the ship . . .

. . . Mickey personally escorted us to our rooms. Yes, seperate room for us as we are only just newly dating . . . we had lovely views from the windows in our rooms . . .

. . . after we got settled we headed over to the water slide. I thought this was a great idea until just as I started down on my slide I could . . . well . . . hear Tamir . . . I just covered my eyes with my fuzzy paws and hoped for the best . . . note: no kittie was hurt during the photo taking of this picture . . .

. . . after a short rest from the water slide we met up for a group photo . . . what a great bunch of folks this it. If we had laughed any more I think my slide would have split open.

Hope you all are having a very happy and safe holiday weekend. I am anxious to see what you all are up to.

Neil Armstrong, the first man that stepped on the face of the moon, will be put to rest this Friday. How appropriate that the Blue Moon will appear in the sky tonight. A Blue Moon is a rare occassion with the next one being July 2015.

I salute a brave pioneer in America's space program, you are a true hero may you rest in peace.

Where I would like to go on vacation

Where do YOU think?

Spyro's Dream Vacation

I've got my bag and I'm ready to go!  Due to the noisy workmen outside cluttering up the place and raising lots of dust, Mom couldn't get a clear shot of  the forest, but that's where I want to go.  We are surrounded by National Forest and I want to explore it.  Just Mom and I would go camping and she would leave my harness and leash behind and let me go free.  I would get to climb trees and chase bugs and sniff out critters and watch birds and explore to my heart's content.  Mom would dig out her fishing pole, or get another one and get her license and she would go fishing for trout, which we would both eat.

Dexter's Dream Vacation

So first I have to tell you that while I would like to imagine myself in these beautiful places, the Momma doesn't have Photo-shopping (sigh) so you'll just have to use your imagination.

(Yorkshire Travel)

The place I would want to go is  Yorkshire in England.  I fell in love with it's pretty green hills and cool old stone buildings.  I can imagine padding my way down the side streets or lying in a cool stone doorway, or strolling into a local pub (ooops, that's the Momma that wants to do that).  It looks like such a calm and peaceful place, and I could see us out walking I would strut my stuff along the top of those stone fences, or peer over the bridge and look for tasty fishes in the water.

(Nala Rewop)

I would also like to visit the sheep in the fields.  We had sheep on our farm when I was a tiny kitten, but they are gone now, and I miss watching them out the window.  The little lambies were so cute.  They ran around having races in the big grassy field. 

the Momma used to spin their woolies into yarn and made us toys with it sometimes.  I liked to lay in the basket, it was really warm.  I wonder if a sheep would let me lay on it ?

Anyway, after we were done visiting the sheeps, we would "tour the isle"  to visit all of our friends there.  We have lots of Ginger friends over there, and many other kitty (and woofie) friends too.  We would all like to buy you a "pint" (oh wait, that's the Momma again) ... I will stop by for tea (with milk) and bring some catnip biscuits (if they will let me bring them into Heathrow) and we'll all have a wonderful time.

I will go back to taking my nap now... dreaming it were all so.  See you in my dreams my friends!

Bora Bora

Goodness Gracie in Bora Bora

Where Would I Like To Go On Vacation?

I had so much fun in Bora Bora last year that I decided that I needed to go again. Considering that I am still WITHOUT MY COMPUTER THANKS TO MOM, sorry for yelling . . . anyway . . . I have teleported to wonderful, beautiful Bora Bora and I am not coming back home until the mom GEYD MY COMPUTER BACK! Sorry I am thinking that as I chill out my anger will get under control . . . one can only hope huh?

 There are still lots of huts left so if you want to join me come on down!

Moosey's dream vacation :)

Mommy and Daddy enjoyed Paris very much, and said they met some very nice cats there.  So if I could, I would take my brofur Sammy, Mommy and Daddy on a Paris vacation.  This would be us in front of the Eiffel Tower (and our dad would be taking the picture, of course)!

Have a great day, everybuddy!

Love,

Moosey

Our Olympic Experience with Clementine

We participated in Team Lounging at DaisyMae Maus & The Feline American's

The O-Lympics are ending....

Tamir says he's sorry to see the O-Lympics end but will always cherish this special moment with the ladycat love of his life, Gracie.

Olympic Memories Socks

Well my family didn't do so hot in the competition, you might say we flopped badly but we had lots of fun competing. I was entered in Competitive Napping over @ Huffle's.

You might say I was sleeping on the job.

I also teamed up with Scylla to participate in Synchronized Snoozing at  The Island Cats.

Even though we didn't get any medals, we are fully committed to staying in shape and are back in training for the next Olympics.

Purrs From Michigan!

Hi.  I'm so excited to be a member of the Tabby Cat Club.  This is me waiting for Mama to finish with that pesky thing called housework.  I'm on a chair that nobody, and I mean nobody is allowed to sit on.  Being cute has it's up-tailed moments!  I've got two sisters that you can meet on our blog.   Mama is trying to get used to that bloggie thing.  She writes regular things for unfurry peoples in newspapers.  Would you, please, let Mama know how to connect with Mr. Linkie on CB?  Mama says there's nothing like a brown clown in the house, and I think that's so true.  Thanks and purrs to all my tabby friends. :) Abbi Leala
