Feline Friday - 8/30/13

Momma thinks she has taught me a new trick.

It's kinda the same old trick but I'm gonna let her think it's cool for a little while and then I'll "forget" the trick!

Years ago Momma taught us that when she rang the cow bell, we should all go to the kitchen cuz she was gonna dish up some wet snacks. Now we just come running without the bell.

Last week I was out in the garden enjoying a few blades of grass and Momma didn't want to get her toes wet to come out and drag me back inside so she decided to ring the cow bell. Lucky for Momma there were wet treats when I came inside cuz it hasn't happened the next 2 times. I am going to forget pretty soon...

What tricks do you know?

The ADK is never far away...

I think I survived the hexie hop :) Now I just need to decide what new projects to work on! Oh yeah, that's gonna be easy...

In the meantime, let me tell you about my latest camping trip!! Yipper, I made the hop, skip and a jump back up to the Adirondacks last weekend to crash with my parents and my brother's family. No tent this time; I let them fight over who's camper I slept in. As usual, the boys won!


The puppy (he's a double doodle) had a good time playing in the sand and chewing sticks.


And the boys had a ball in the mud. Oh to be 5 and 8 again!


The photo I really wanted was everyone around the campfire with their digital devices. Between the 7 of us there were 3 kindles, 3 tablets, 2 smart phones, 2 stupid phones and an Ipad. Dad only had a stupid phone - He likes a good old fashioned newspaper. Maybe next year...

Most of the rest of the trip was just hanging around with occasional walks, running into town to the new quilt store and a last minute trip to the beach. You can guess what I was doing the rest of the time??!!

Be a Hexie Queen - Day #7

As always happens - we are sad to see something end but kinda happy too - I can't take too many more great ideas. I really had a wonderful time perusing 75 new project ideas. Now if only I could get them all done...I'll just have to settle for starting a few new UFOs. LOL. Check back at the next HeLP  on 9/17/13 and maybe I'll have a new project to share :^)
