OMD! OMC! She was off work and she made us look all Mexican...sheesh!
And after a wet end to April and even a wet start to May, this weekend has been glorious! Hooray for warm sunpuddles and greenery outside. Hooray for Spring flowers...but our weeping cherry is on vacation from flowering this spring due to the snow and frost we had a couple weeks ago. Its putting out its leaves now instead of the pink/white blossoms. It sure was warm enough for a blossom explosion, which has happened other years...there are a few sprigs of blossoms, that is all:(
Shucks, now we all have to wait for another spring to see it in bloom. Hopefully the dogwood will bark up a nice show later one, BOL!
Benji should have gone next door to help the neighbour dig holes, he was using a pole-hole digger tool...but no, he sad he would rather do it himself. So then Benji went on a spree in our yard...and presented us with a prize...sorry no pictures out of respect for the little dead gopher he brought to us. Petcretary carefully scooped it up and gave it a funeral...then Benji was sniffing all around for *his* prize...sigh...
Dalton almost caught a red squirrel...he got to about 6 inches of it, before it scuttled up the tree, where it chattered all kinds of insults to him, BOL! Dalton is fast as lightening! Maybe with time he might have a prize too...shudder...
Pipo is quite social lately, and talks about all kinds of things to the peeps and the pups, too. He teases them by getting into their 'terriertory' and then mrouwing at them. It makes Benji go ballistic, but he doesn't give chase cause he has felt the whaps, swats, and smackypaws that go along with the hisses. Pipo is quite confident that he will not be a prize for them and they seem respectful, even scared of him. No chance of getting cozy together anytime soon though...Pipo never did with Angel MJF, so its unlikely he will change for the two pups that are here now.
Pipo does pretty good with his noms for now. The vet changed his appetite stimulant to a transdermal kind...even though Pipo is pretty easy to give a pill to...
Well, you all want to see our Cinco De Mayo pictures right?? And we mean the month of May and not the concoction that gets put on sandwiches or salads, etc...and its a good thing, cause petcretary hates that stuff, BOL/MOL!
We made some cards, too:
We had to say goodbye to several furry ones this past week...

We are hopping and being a bit celebratory today as we do our selfies for Cinco De Mayo. |
Luv da cinco de mayo selfies!
ReplyDeleteAnd a gopher?? Way to go!
your selfies are super fabulous!!!! and we would like to help your neighbor with da pool... we could make him his own ocean with our digging ;O)
ReplyDeleteWow, Benji has grown! He looks so big next to Dalton now. Well done on catching the gopher.
ReplyDeleteI am glad Pipo is doing well.
Talk about celebrating! Y'all sure got it together in a most colorful way for this special day! Happy Cinco de Mayo, one and all ...
ReplyDeleteAnd we thank you as well, for so thoughtfully remembering our dear Maggy girl ...
Hugs from Ann, Dougie Dog and Zoey.
You all look great in your Cinco de Mayo finery!
ReplyDeleteYour petcretary and my ghostwriter must work opposite weekends. She almost had to work until 3am yesterday, but the other nurse volunteered this time. Ghostwriter also got to see a bit of the Kentucky Derby with the little old ladies wearing their fancy hats for the occasion. You all look very festive for Cinco de Mayo. Hope you got some special treats too! (I would never keep a hat on my head like that. I'd have it off in a second and then run around the house with it!)
ReplyDeleteYou pups get a gold medal from me for your hunting skills! Hooray! I haven't caught anything in a while. But in my younger years I've caught bunnies, mousies, shrews, and all kinds of birdies. Still haven't quite caught an evil squirrel, but have gotten close many times. Ghostwriter says maybe she'll get one of those twirl-a-squirrel birdie feeders to get them all good and dizzy before I chase them. Good idea?
pipo....ya got thoz dawgz rite wher ya want em....in line ....keep it that way buddy ~~ ☺☺

ReplyDeleteYou all celebrated Cinco de May in style! We hope you had a meowgarita or two. :)
ReplyDeleteI love your Cinco de Mayo wear!
ReplyDeleteYou guys looks so cute in your Mexican Duds for Cinco De Mayo! Mom says if she had not been driving back from taking Dad home Ninja and I might have been subjected to dressing up for Cinco de Mayo (or for Star Wars Day - May the fourth).
ReplyDeleteAnd we saw your card for Ann on Zoolatry. What great cards you made for the birthdays and for Ann!
We LOVE your cards!Purrs
