Lots to Appreciate…even my garden

HIYA! SAVANNAH HERE!!!

I always have problems keeping my Thankful Thursday post down to a dull roar…na’mean??

There just always seems so much to share with you all about the stuff I am so appreciative of…but I’ll save some of it for next time…here we go…

First, I am so grateful that Ray Charles and Rachel will have a nice size brand new hand crocheted blanket to curl up on, next to each other, for naps. We have another addition to the Hope Chest for Rachel and Ray Charles…(scroll over the photos for captions)

Ray last Saturday…see his FB page

Rachel last Saturday…see her FB page

Miss Julie, from Hazel Lucy’s Tranquility Blankets, is contributing a larger-sized Hazel Lucy blanket and some matching crochet collars for both kitties!

APAWS!! APAWS!!

NOW LET”S GET THESE KITTIES A HOME!!!

Next, for those of you who don’t use Twitter…our sweet Mimi, aka Mary aka MJ, in England is settling into her new home and getting along great with her new Dad and brofur Jazz…here they are playing like crazy pants with their new Nip N Nap mats made by Mollie and Alfie’s Mum Miss Stella…you simple MUST visit her shop!

Yaahhhh!! What’s under here!

MEOW! This is great nip!

Sigh…need a nap with Dad

You can check in with Mimi and Jazz on Twitter…@JazzandMimi

I can’t let this Thankful Thursday go by without sharing something totally special that happened between me and Mom after she and Dad came back from a little get-away…only gone ~~400~~ 4 days…but I made sure to let Mom know how much I missed her…and I haven’t stopped yet…!!!!

I have not snuggled right next to Mom…against her leg…on the couch for over a year…and the second night she was back…I sucked my body right up as close as I could get next to her on the couch while we watched TV and she gave me the bestest ever head rubs…(sorry for the blurry images but Mom was only able to grab Dad’s mobile to take these)…

Mom’s leg is that big lump!

oh yes, that spot needs attention

ahhhh…heaven!!!!

ummm…nice…

Yup,, yup…that needed attention

With all this good stuff going around…it’s impawsible to not feel hugely thankful. I appreciate Pepi Smart Dog for hosting the Thankful Thursday Blog Hop…check out HERE for more wonderful posts…

I didn’t really have a garden report last week for my furriend Jonesie…so I sent Mom out to take some shots of our new garden flag out front and snaps of some of the roses and other flowers we still don’t know the names of…MOL…

What is this plant?

These are so deep purple

Bright new rose

A lily of some kind we think

My red hibiscus

Hope you like my garden report…

We Are FurAmily…

HIYA!! SAVANNAH HERE!!!

It’s that time of week…and here comes one of my most fave things to meow about…luv’in from my Dad…

You see, I have always been a Mom’s girl…and Dad wants so much to get to pet me as much as I let Mom…so he started sitting in her place on the couch…I wasn’t so sure the first couple of nights…but check out this…in only two days, I have already turned my head TOWARD Dad instead of giving him my backside view…heh…heh…

…and I am liking his chin scritches too…

Of course, Mom gives the very BESTEST EVER head massages…she knows just exactly how to massage that little soft spot right in front of my ears…Oh Cod!! I just melt!!!…it’s a bit blurry…Dad got nervous I would wake up from my Zen Zone!!

…can you see how she gets the purrfect spot???…

I can’t ever be grateful enough for sharing my home with Mom and Dad who work so hard to continue to help me show more and more of my REAL SELF…I still have lots more to show…we are all patient…

I am joining Pepi Smart Dog’s Thankful Thursday Blog Hop…click HERE for other great blog posts…

I don’t have a garden report for my furriend Jonesie…Mom and Dad are away and my garden is sort of not doing much right now…maybe next week…sure hope Cousin Leo get Dad Dave to come up with a good garden report for Jonesie so we can keep up the furramily good name on gardening…
