Manito Park Visit

While Auntie Darcy and Cousin Nicolyn were here we went to Manito Park !!!
Isn’t it amazing !?!
Here we are at the Japanese Garden in Manito Park. There is also a rose garden, perennial garden, lilac garden, a pond, a lilac garden, and much more!
I had to show Darcy and Nicolyn the famous Spokane Garbage Goat and they loved it!!
Then the day came when they had to leave to continue their Road Trip.
Road Trip! Tigers LOVE Road Trips! I hopped in the car but mom said I had to stay home with her. Goodbye Nicolyn I will miss you!

Happy 4th of July 2022!

OMG the Best Thing Ever happened!!! Auntie Darcy and Cousin Nicolyn came to visit !!!! And we went to Loon Lake to go swimming and hang out!!
OMG !!! Auntie Darcy rented a stand-up paddle board and we took turns using it!!

Here I am on the SUP board all by myself !!!

After that we went to Green Bluff to pick strawberries! They taste so much better than what you can buy in the store the flavor is amazing.
We also wanted to pick cherries but they were not ready yet. Tigers LOVE cherries but only if they are ripe. It was an AWESOME day!

Haircut, Art Show, and a Party!!!

Mom got a haircut from our fabulous stylist Paula who is so beautiful! and who is going to have her own salon so next time we will see her there!!
We went to an Art Show at Manito Park. Here I am with Amber one of the fabulous artists. She is a silversmith and had beautiful jewelry that she designed and made. Amber was super nice and gorgeous!!

Here is a picture of some of the crowd at the art show.

Our awesome neighbors Mitch and Heather had an ice cream party!! OMG Tigers love ice cream! Here are some of the neighbors hanging out and socializing. Heather and Mitch are wonderful people and we are lucky to have them as neighbors. Also Heather is beautiful and Mitch is very handsome.

New Foster Kittens!

We have some new foster kittens !!!! OMG there are so adorable! This is Damien. He was shy and hissy at first but he settled in quickly and is having a great time.
This is his brother Diego. He was friendly right away and was braver and helped Damien adjust. After a few days Diego got sick! We rushed him to the shelter where he got THREE injections after that he got a lot better. By that evening he was eating and playing again but still a little weak. He is back to normal now but we have to give both him and Damien medicine for a week. Which they hate!
Also OMG we got a PING PONG table !!!! The first one we ordered got damaged so they cancelled it before delivering it and we had to order it again. It was super easy to assemble with good instructions !
Here is the robot on the end of the table. It was pretty easy to assemble too despite the terrible instructions! It is super fun! We are still figuring out all the controls for the robot. The net works great and catches most of the balls that mom returns. There are lots she misses so we have to stop the robot periodically and pick up all the balls that are all over the floor!!

Reproductive Rights Rally !!!

We went to a rally to support women’s health care and right to choose. It was hard to get a good picture to show the crowd; there were thousands of people!
We ran into our friend Kay !!! We met her the first time when Kay was buying blue and yellow material to make flags to support Ukraine and we were buying the same material to make a bandana for me!
Here are some of my favorite signs!

Thunderstorms!

We have been getting Thunderstorms for days rolling through, with rain downpours and rivers of water in the streets. It hails a lot too !!
Mom donated blood; here I am with Jarred who took care of her during the donation. He did a great job! He was super nice and is super handsome! He was very happy to get his photo taken with a Tiger.
Our cell phone had a problem so we took it to the T-Mobile store. Georgee and Sonny fixed it!!! For free!!! It is working great now with the new SIM card. They were super helpful and are soooo beautiful !!!
Here is our foster cat Coco she is getting much braver. Isn’t she pretty !?!
She is very playful and loves toys. She likes to put the toys in the water bowl to drown them.
We bought some new cat trees made locally by Ray’s Cat Condos! Ray was super helpful and so handsome and the cat trees are very good quality – I highly recommend!

Soap Class!!

First of all it is the middle of April and we are getting SNOW !!! Yippee! I think it is great but mom is not so excited.
We went to a soap class to learn how to make goats milk soap. It was VERY interesting and a lot of fun! We met some really nice people who love to make soap, just like us!
This is me with Tammy who taught the class! She is super nice and super beautiful and knows all about making soap and also all about goats! She raises goats !!!! OMG mom we should totally get some goats!!!!

A New Bandana- for Ukraine!

It has been hard to read the news about Ukraine. Mom says even if it is sad it is important to know what is going on in the world and bear witness. I wanted to do something to show my support for the people (and Tigers) in Ukraine so mom made me a new bandana in the colors of the Ukraine flag.
When we were at the store picking out fabric for the bandana we met Kay!! She was also carrying bolts of fabric in blue and yellow and she and mom starting talking and comparing fabric colors. We all agreed that the yellow color Kay had was the best and mom’s blue was the best so we ended up in line together and bought the same fabric! Kay is going to make some flags to hang where she lives. That is an awesome idea! Kay was super nice and super beautiful.
Mom tried to figure out how to make a bandana for herself but decided instead to use the loom to make a sort of necktie. We happened to have yellow and blue yarn and the colors aren’t quite right but we are going to see how it turns out.

Mom needed a haircut really badly and here I am with Paula at the Blue Harmony Salon! Paula was so nice and knowledgeable and totally gorgeous and the salon is really nice. Mom’s hair looks much better now!!

Ping Pong Birthday Party !!!

Lacey organized a surprise birthday party for David but after a while it was not a surprise so David was able to invite even more people to his surprise party. It was a windy chilly day so some people gathered around a heater outside to drink their cold beverages!
Here we are in the basement playing ping pong! This game it was Emily and Warren on one team and David and Jeffrey on the other. Everyone had such a good time! It is nice to be able to get together again.
David is an Engineer and is so good at designing and building things! Here is a slide he made for the kids inside the house! But adults and Tigers can use it too!
OMG! The most amazing thing happened! Our friend Thuan at work GAVE us this robot! You mount it on a ping pong table and it shoots out balls at you so you can practice! It has settings for backspin and frontspin and everything! Now we have to get a ping pong table!!!

We Went Hiking !!!

We went for a hike at the James Slavin conservation area!
It was sunny but very windy I was glad to have my awesome red winter scarf. There were lots of people walking dogs and we even saw someone taking their miniature horse for a walk!
Mom was having trouble with the camera and we had lots of photos of things like her hiking sticks laying on the ground. ha ha ha! Here is a mistake photo that turned out pretty good!

The dinosaurs are all ready for Easter. We were doing yardwork today and lots of people out walking stopped by to say how much they enjoy the dinos.
