Finally Friday Close Ups!

Georgia:We thought it would be nice to do some different

close ups. Our expressions are a bit different.

Mum just caught us unaware sometimes.

We are surprised,interrupted,thinking, just looking or

any number of expressions.

Cats are quite expressive.

In case we do not get around to visit you, we wish you all a very

HAPPY NEW YEAR !

Christmas Fun Until the Power Went Out

On Christmas Day, mum went to her sister's place

with her other sister(Team Tabby)

Since she was going to be away for the day

we decided the best thing to do was nap.

As you can see we all agreed to nap together.

As you can see, mum has a large family and extended family.

They had a great time,then they came home

On the way there, they drove on roads that had snow and a little

freezing rain. They were lucky that a snow plow was ahead

of them and they followed it for a while.

Mum's sister lives outside of Wolfville,home to Acadia University.

If you look closely at the top of the building,

you can see the flags are straight out!

It was a very windy day!

It was so windy that when mum got back home around

8 PM, all she saw was darkness anong the streets.

All the houses were in darkness,including ours!

It seems the high winds caused power poles and trees

to fall on power lines.The Power company said spowe would

take a while to restore and some people would not get power back

until noon on Boxing Day(today)

Our place was very cold and  we were too.

We all piled in with mum to stay warm overnight.

Just after 10AM this morning the power came on again!

It was so nice to feel the heat from the furnace.

Today is still cool (-3C ) and a little windy,

but we are snug and warm indoors with heat!

Happy Boxing Day !!

Our Christmas Card to All of Our Friends

To all of our friends, this is our

Christmas card.

We wish you all love,peace and happiness

now and all year long.

Have a really FUN weekend too !!

Monday Musings with Georgia

Georgia: It is very sunny and warm on this porch and I love that.

I think it would be a great idea to hop on the couch and 

have a nice nap.

Up we go!

There! See all this glorious sunshine?

My nap is gonna be SO nice!

Outside, it is sunny but pretty cool.

On Saturday we had a dusting of snow.

Our first of the season.

Mum said it was not enough to shovel,

That's OK.

The sun is still warm enough so that I can enjoy a great snooze.

Zzzzzzzzz !

Julie enjoyed all the sunshine too.

Monday Musings with Georgia

 Georgia: We had a pretty quiet weekend but it was fun just the same.

Mum stayed in with us as it was pouring rain outside.

I got lots of scritches and mum brushed me.

I love getting brushed, it feels so good.

JJ:  I enjoyed my weekend too.

Mum brushed me in order to keep fur matting under control.

Matts are not fun,especially when mum works to remove them.

I also had lots of good naps. I like those.

Julie had a good weekend too.

When she was eating breakfast,something outside

got her attention.

Maybe it was Earl!

To see more of Julie,pop over to

House Panthers!

Let's Get This Weekend Started !

We 3 Cats: While mum is on the computer doing up

the blog, we keep her company.

It is easy to dictate when we are comfy. 

She does our bidding quite well and follows instructions.

That allows us to enjoy lots of snoozing time.

See, it pays to have well trained humans.

Given the cool forecast for the weekend and

precipitation that may include rain and possibly a bit of

that white stuff... we may be doing a lot more of this.

Whatever  your weather, we purr your weekend

is  FUN !!!!!

Monday Musings with Georgia

Georgia: Well, mum was gone most of Sunday.

She went to the annual Tea and Tour

put on by her sister's church.

JJ: 

She had a lot of fun helping prepare the food plates for people.

Julie: As good as the food must have been, I was glad 

when she came and gave me my regular supper.

As promised the did bring some sandwiches home.

We did not like a lot of them though.

Yup, we're a tough bunch! MOL!

Here are some pictures of the houses mum toured.

The hall before the people come.

The people enjoying the pre-tour lunch!

Now that the tour is over, we are happy to have mum back home.

We are also happy she had a good time.

Finally Friday at Mickey's Musings

Georgia: The weekend is here!

Mum will be around a unch.

She will be away most of Sunday as it is time for her annual

Christmas Tea and Tour.

That means mum will be hanging out with her sister and

visiting some houses decorated for Christmas.

JJ: That's right Georgia.  There is a luncheon served.

Little sandwiches and sweets and then houses to visit.

Our Auntie's church has been doing this for

over 20 years.

Mum and Auntie have been going for a lot of years too.

Julie: For the past number of years, they have been helping 

out with the tea and lunch and then going visiting.

We do not go, but we wish there were tasty treats for us kitties.

Maybe we can convince mum to bring home 

some ham and chicken sandwiches for us.

We are sure they would be tasty .

What are your weekend plane?
We purr that a lot of FUN is involved!!
