February in Review

Greg had bought a discount bag of bananas one weekend we were down at the house thinking it would give him bananas for the week. Little did he know the 4 bananas on the top of the bag were the only regular sized in the bag the rest were mini-bananas. The look on his face was priceless!

 We just LOVE our cottage kitty trio; they each have a unique personality that is all their own. Callie goes on "patol" about the yard making sure no interloper invades HER yard.

 Howie is the largest of the three and the biggest baby. He waits for Scott EVERY night so he can get a good scratching and a cuddle from "Dad" cat.  During storms Howie is almost inconsolable and will cry and cry.

"Painty Papers" and a few "extra" goodies from my swap partners.

Mixed Media Mash-up for week 45. I cut this up and turned it into painty paper journals.

This past weekend we were down at our house doing a bit of work in the yard and garage. So much was in bloom...

Red Bud tree in the backyard.

There were so many bees working the air was filled with their voices.

 My Camellias were full of blooms!

The Hawthorne cherry tree in the front yard was stunning and alive with bees as well. It and the cedar behind it I planted years ago when they were each about a foot tall.

This Tulip Magnolia always puts on a grand show every year.

The kitties really missed us while we were away and stuck so close to me when we got back. Makes me wonder if they had some trouble with something or someone when we were gone.

 Yesterday Scott and I went up to Travelers Rest to walk at the park and then go to Goodwill for "Old Fart Tuesday" - Seniors Day so we could save another 25% off our purchases.

Scott took this photo of a gorgeous choke cherry at the park.

Our "treasures" from Goodwill!
