Memorial Day Weekend

We made a donation to the American Legion and the nice man collecting donations gave us a paper poppy it is a tradition!  He did not want to have his picture taken with me I am a Tiger sometimes people are scared mom says she doesn’t think he was scared but not everyone wants their picture taken. It is a red poppy my favorite color!

Me and Lars Larson and mom went for a hike at the Turnbull Wildlife Refuge one of my favorite places it was sunny and we saw lots of wildflowers! 

Mom let me use the camera!!!  He is a photo of some wild iris and my paw got in the picture too. haha! The little buttons on the camera are very fidgety.

Foster Cats! and a Pet Pig!! OMG!

We took our foster cat Leo to an adoption event at PetSmart and while we were there someone brought their pet PIG shopping!!!  OMG it was super cute and sweet I told mom we should totally get a pig like this to live with us but she said NO.

Here I am with Paige who is so beautiful and super nice she is in charge of the SCRAPS foster cats at the PetSmart it is a lot of work and she does a great job!!

Then later we got a call from the foster department asking if we could help and take on another foster cat I told mom say YES because if we can’t have a pet pig then a pregnant cat is EXACTLY what we need to make our lives more interesting. Here she is isn’t she gorgeous?? !  She does not have a name yet she is living in one of our bathrooms. Soon she will have kittens oh BOY oh BOY I can hardly wait!

This weekend we went for a walk in a new park we had not been to. Here we are on a bridge crossing the Spokane River! It was so windy mom made us ride in the backpack.

We hiked all over and here we are down by the river right after some kayakers went by mom was too slow with the camera as usual.  It was a super day!

Happy Mom Day!

I hope all the MOM’s out there have a Happy Day!  In our front yard we have been akwiring   ackweiring getting more dinosaurs we do not know where they are coming from!  There are new dinosaurs who also brought baby dinos in baby carriages! There was a big celebratioin for Mother’s Day and Cameron and Carson who live down the street made special signs (with help from their awesome Dad).

Our super neighbor Joni had some flowers delivered from her daughter but Joni wasn’t home so she texted mom to ask if we could look after them until tomorrow. No problem!

This weekend we went to plant nurseries and bought some plants for our garden. Here I am with Kathy at Northland Rosarium she was super nice and super beautiful.  It is a wonderful nursery with tons of roses and other plants and display gardens too. 

Ping Pong on the Patio!

Oh boy!  At work there is a ping pong table that is almost never used and we had it moved to the patio outside the IT office and now we play ping pong at lunch every day!!  Here I am with David and Chris.  They are both so handsome and smart and fun and are really good ping pong players!  Mom has lost every game so far.

This weekend there was a class at the museum on how to make a cedar basket!

Here I am with Paul  who taught the class and is super handsome and charming and fun. And very patient. Paul is wearing one of his famous woven cedar hats!

Here is mom’s finished basket! It is called a berry basket it is a contemporary design using traditional American Indian basket-making methods.

Also this weekend we went for a long walk on the Centennial Trail with Lars Larson and some friends!  The ladies were beautiful and the men were so handsome!  It was a super day and we had a great weekend.
