Alex's Birthday

Alex celebrated her birthday this weekend..and here I am...right in the thick of it...as always...wonder if she will give me a sip of that champagne...I mean..look how cute I look...how can she resist?? I love those bubbles....

What's down there??

So, after peaking my head out...I ventured out a bit more to see what was going on...looked a bit far down for me....and then before I knew it..Gilbert scooped me back into the house.....such an adventure I could have had....oh well....

WOW...this is exciting

So, the window was opened a bit and I got to see what all the fuss was about...

What is going on outside

Michael and Abby were outside and I wanted to know what was going on...they looked to be having a lot of fun with Lil Mang out there

Treat time with everyone

It can get really crazy around here in the morning when it is treat time..a lot of pushing and shoving....as you can tell by the out of focus pictures....it is survival of the fittest around here

Lunch

After the match, Lil Mang and I decided to ahve some lunch....just us friends...so we found a nice table and waited to place our order

Half Time

Lil Mang decided we needed to take a break.....

WWW wrestling in the Berkshires

I have been training for this all week....eating right, getting naps in...working on my core...for this very moment

Mercedes and the toy basket

Mercedes loves to play with the basket that the toys are in..not sure if she is just lying on them here or trying to keep me away from them...sometimes she can be very confusing..just like a woman....

Jameson is very helpful!

Betsy had to do the laundry and Jameson decided to give her a hand....I thought that was very nice of her...always thinking of other people.....

Waiting for my friends to come

So, I decided to relax while I am waiting for everyone to arrive....should be a fun and exciting weekend

Core Training

Betsy is always talking about how important it is to work your core.....so here I am...working it!!!! This better do something....I feel ridiculous....

A little sip

I guess I could have taken a sip from the other side of the bowl...as opposed to squishing myself into the post....but what would be the fun in that

Education Time

This is me and Gilbert listening to a news video on his computer...he is always trying to keep me informed as to what is going on in the world....then we discuss what we have learned and his views about it as well as mine....this is our special time together

Surprise...it's me

Yup...just when you wanted to come in and brush your teeth..there I am....waiting.....and who says that the water bowl is the only way to get a drink....you gotta use your imagination sometimes....

The Pantry

Jack loves the pantry..that is where all the good food is kept...and Jack's favorite...plastic bags...he has never met a plastic bag that he didn't want to get to know and lick. When he least expects it..I attack.

Lounging

Jameson and McCallan do a lot of lounging around the house.....they especially like the rugs....after Betsy has vacuumed them of course...I guess they just want to keep her on her toes....

Welcome to my home

Jack welcomes cats and people into his room but only if you answer his questions right otherwise you won't be allowed in.....usually they are easy ones...like what are the favorite cat treats on the house and where are the best places to snooze....then there are the more difficult ones..like what is Betsy's favorite color and does Gilbert wear boxers or briefs.....

Friends came to Visit

So Alex's cats came to stay with me this week.....Jameson, the calico, really doesn't like to play that much, I think she feels that being here is a vacation from MacCallan...since he will chase me and not her while they are here....they come down to play during the day and then at night they go and stay in Alex's room. Betsy feeds them up there..with the door closed so I won't gobble up all of their food....but if they don't finish...and the door is opened...watch out.....the food bandito pounces

CHICKEN!!

There is nothing better than chicken......of course there is salmon, tuna, yogurt...but I digress...Betsy made chicken and wild rice soup today......I love the smell of the chicken cooking in the broth.....even Jack comes out from underneath the bed for this.....so there we are...waiting for it to be done......salivating at the thought of those delicious morsels falling to the floor waiting for me to gobble them up.....yes, I do gobble...poor jack...he is not a gobbler...he sniffs...looks...then eats....by that time, I have devoured his as well......snooze you lose..I always say.....
