The paper bag didn't stand a chance.

I have "trained" her to wait until she gets an "Okay" before snatching the bags. Roo was present and distracted me long enough for her the sneak in a grab one. I gave him the job of cleaning up after her. It is ONLY bags she chooses to shred. Not books, not magazines, not newspapers. She is a nut, then again it may be because the cat likes to hide in them? Hmmmm, makes sense to me now.

A perfect summer day.

It was a beautiful sunny, mild day. Peaches was home today and we enjoyed some family fun time. To start things off, art on the patio with sidewalk chalk.

Roo had more chalk on him I think then the patio.

After drawing, it was time for a dip in the pool. Butter shows us how to ride the slide!

And not to be left out, Piper had to get in on the fun. She loves to play fetch. She will bark non-stop until somebody , anybody throws the ball.

We enjoy playing outside. We love spending time together and hanging out. Tonight maybe smores and a bonfire...But for now we leave you with Piper and her smile.

Grossed OUT!

It has been a sickening week for me. I have dealt with more gore then a normal person should.

This is our cat Tabitha. She has up until now been a great pet. As you can see here she's doing what a nice kitty does, eats her cat food. Hunting is instinct, but she has turned cannibal! Mole, mice, bunnies, birds. You name it. The worst was the bunny I found in the closet. It had "friends". I don't want to know when it was placed there. I have been bombarded by gore and grossness. Nasty huge spiders, a son that refuses to go poopy on the potty but will go on the deck, in his bed, in the kiddie pool. SERIOUSLY! Do you ever JUST want it to stop? Will it? The cat has now been locked in or out depending on where she is when the pet door is locked.
This past weekend was a preview of the week ahead. (See taste of freedom) Peaches took the kiddos to see the big bomber planes at the airport near our house.

They had a blast touring all the planes and playing with the "guns". They love spending time with Daddy.

I cherished the time to read and play with the "baby" of the family, Piper.

So far the grossest thing she's done is try to "help" clean up. If you know what I mean.

These days I could use a little help. Lets start with dinner. Any suggestions what I can serve that doesn't have to be cooked????
