Happy Spring!

Happy Spring!

Sorry I haven't posted for a while. I thought I'd share with you some photos that Mommy took yesterday, May 10, 2009. Enjoy!

Fence that Daddy is building in our back yard by the garden shed.

Window boxes Daddy made for the garden shed.

Geraniums along side the attached garage.

Lavender in pot on the patio outside the breezeway.

Tiffany light fixture in the upstairs hallway.

The pick-up Daddy just got is a Dodge Ram Dakota Sport. It's dark purple but in certain light, it looks navy blue. Above Daddy is standing in our driveway with his pick-up.

Inside of Daddy's pick-up.

Another shot of Daddy's pick-up in our driveway.

Mommy got the statue shown above and put it in the breezeway. It is a yellow tabby Manx like me. She thinks it looks sort of like a smaller version of me.

Happy Day!

Happy Day to you! Thanks for stopping by and checking out my latest blog entry. I woke up this morning in both a playful mood and with a huge dose of Cattitude! I hope you have a terrific day! Later on ... Robert

New photo of me ...

So, as you can see by the photo above, last night Mommy took a new photo of me posing in the foyer on Daddy's Nana's antique Lincoln chair. This chair is circa late 1800s, has intricately carved rose patterned Cherry wood finish, and a beautiful rose patterned petty point seat and backrest cushion done by Nana. In case you are wondering, Nana is Daddy's paternal grandmother.

Have a great day! ~ Robert

Christmas was fun!

Well, I survived Christmas! It was fun! Anyway, now I find the need to nap a little to recuperate from all the celebrating. Plus, I've got to be all rested up for New Year's Day so I can stay up late and party with Mommy and Daddy!

Grandma had her dining table all beautiful for the Christmas dinner!

There were lots of presents under the tree at Grandma's house. She had her tree and fireplace all looking festive on Christmas day!

My uncles, Loren and Claire, got Grandma a new HDTV flat screen TV for Christmas. It works great. Grandma enjoys the large screen and the crisp picture, as shown in the photo above taken in Grandma's living room.

My uncles, Loren and Claire, got Mommy a book written by a cat therapist that offers tips to help Mommy better communicate and understand me. And, Mommy and Daddy got me two new toys for Christmas including Edna, the stuffed butterfly, and a replacement Teenie Sardini fish toy. Both toys are filled with Organic Catnip making them each all the more fun and exciting to play with throughout our home. I had lost my previous Teenie Sardini when I bat in toward the dining room doorway and it slid between the pocket door's crack and is now wedged inside the wall. So far, Mommy and Daddy have not been able to retrieve it. Meanwhile, I have a new Teenie Sardini toy so I am happy!

Have a healthy and happy New Year! ~ Robert

Only two more days til Christmas!

We have snow on the ground outside and it's starting to look a lot like Christmas. Daddy took some photos of our home after the freshly fallen snow, as you can see by the photos above and below ...

The Christmas wreaths are up on the outside of house. Below is the one on the front of the house. One just like it hangs near the breezeway/sun room entry door.

The Christmas tree is up in the formal living room ...

The formal living room coffee table is all decked out for Christmas ...

The Christmas stockings are all hung in the foyer. Mine is the red one, Mommy's is in the middle, and Daddy's is the green stocking at the top ...

The dining room table is decorated ...

And, I've got some "Robert's Christmas Sugar Cookies" and milk all set out in the family room waiting for Santa, as you can see by the photos below ...

There are already two wrapped presents under the tree with my name, Robert, on them. I'm starting to get really excited! I can't wait until Christmas when Santa comes and when I can spend quality time with Daddy, Mommy, Grandma, and my uncles, Loren and Claire.

Meanwhile, I wish you a blessed Christmas and joyous New Year! ~ Robert

Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow ...

Oh the weather outside is frightful ... It snowed and Mommy took photos as seen above and below ...




But inside it's so delightful ...

Above and below, you can see that I didn't care if it was snowing. I just relaxed the whole time on the bench/settee in the formal living room.

And since I've no where to go ... let it snow, let it snow, let it snow ... Be warm and stay happy! ~ Robert

Christmas tree is up!

So, Mommy decorated the Christmas tree. She took photos this evening of what she did. You can see the decorated tree above and below ...

I didn't help Mommy with the decorating. I just sat on the formal living room love seat and observed.

Besides, I have a little too much catitude to involve myself in labor intensive activities like putting up Christmas tree decorations ...

In the family room Mommy put up a smaller Christmas tree that is decked out in Western decor. You can see that photo below ...

As you see by the above photo, I was lounging next to it when Mommy snapped this picture.

By the way, Uncle Don broke his leg while moving a car engine the other day. He is restoring a 1953 Chevy, and the engine was on a tripod and while moving it, it fell over and broke his leg. He spent three days in the hospital and is home now recovering.

Uncle Don is shown in the photo above posing with an old plane. I am saying a prayer that Uncle Don will be as good as new very soon.

Above is a photo of Uncle Don, cousin Sam, and Daddy standing along the street outside our house.

So, this one's for you Uncle Don ...

Sending lots of hugs and kisses to Uncle Don! ~ Robert

Christmas is coming! Santa is on his way!!!

Hi there! With just a few more days left until Christmas, I got my famous sugar cookies ordered and packaged up to give Santa when he comes to our house to deliver presents. I've been good this year, so I am expecting a lot of presents this year under the tree!!!!

Robert's Cookies: Holiday Sugar Cookies and Robert, the Manx cat ~ all ready for Santa!

So, Mommy and Daddy also got in the Christmas spirit and did a little more decorating around the house. See photos below ...
