Fairy Plaque


This is the plaque that Rob of Witchwood Creations made for the promotion we did in July. If you’d like to order from him click here.




Mimi, ever hopeful, in her place by the hearth.




Puck wondering what mischief to get into next.




A kitty’s life can be SO HARD! But Freckles does his best to cope.




AWWWW! KC and Cadeau making nice!




AH! The comfort of the porch in spring! Skitter and KC are VERY HAPPY!




Clematis climbing the pergola




More clematis




The blossoming dogwood just outside the kitchen window.




Aren’t chives lovely when they blossom!




Columbine




More columbine




Peony is such a lovely flower, isn’t it?




Can’t get enough of those peonies!




One that hasn’t quite opened yet.




On a peony roll here! There’s no such thing as too many of them though!




Iris is my husband’s favorite flower.





And so I just have to include irises in the pictures.




Therefore I’ve paid due homage to iris.




But in truth I prefer rhododendron.




Roses climbing the pergola




More roses climbing the pergola




Mother of thyme and some other flowers.




One of the bush roses





Lavender in bloom




Yarrow





The stairs to the woods



And now for some wildlife. Aren’t these lovely spiders?







GEES! I wish KC and Skitter could learn to get along!




Freckles LOVES watching Kitty TV!


Cadeau


Cadeau’s a STAR! (Or at least he’s on TV)




We should put books up there so Puck and Freckles could be bookends!

Her Miminess having a little snack

Her Miminess!


Skitter


Skitter in a moment of indecision


Puc


Puck guarding the bay window in the kitchen. It’s a dirty job but SOMEBODY has to do it!


KC


KC understands that sometimes you just have to hide your face!


Cadeau:


Cadeau: I DIDN’T DO IT! I PROMISE!



Prepare yourself for an orgy of daffodils!








Oh yeah and hyacinths





Lenten roses




Magnolia




Azaleas and daffodils




Our steps to the woods




A bunch of flowering trees




The pet cemetery



Cadeau in a box


AWWWWWWW! A box of Cadeau with his favorite holiday ornament!


Puck


Puck was posing beautifully for me but the MINUTE I whipped out the camera he turned his back and walked away! SHEESH!


Skitter and Freckles on the porch.


Skitter and Freckles on the porch. As usual, you can hardly see Skitter for his buddy!


Miminess close to the hearth


Her Miminess close to the hearth waiting PATIENTLY for me to start a fire!


Skitter and KC snuggling


Isn’t it a shame that Skitter and KC just can’t seem to get along?


My beloved daffodils!


OH YEAH! My beloved daffodils!


More daffodils


More daffodils!


witch hazel


And the witch hazel




Witch hazel in blossom




Forsythia in blossom




The ubiquitous daffodils!




Her Miminess is NOT in the mood!





Puck makes a grand entrance into my bedroom




Cadeau examining my friend’s shopping bag




Freckles chilling out on my bed.




It’s such a shame that Skitter and KC can’t seem to get along!




KC relaxes while Puck joins my cat collection




Cadeau's checking out the kitty salad




Her Miminess on her throne (my desk chair). Actually her real throne is my lap, but she uses the chair in a pinch.




Freckles chilling on the window seat.




KC and Skitter together again! (Yeah like anyone could keep 'em apart!)




Sunset in our back yard



Our winter wonderland








Puck likes to make sure my CPU is working right.




On the other hand, Cadeau prefers to talk to Samantha Squirrel




Freckles waits his turn while Skitter gives KC a bath





Puck in front of the fire. And Mimi smack up against the screen. I swear, Mimi would climb INSIDE the fireplace if she could!




Same shot, different angle. You can see all the kitty stockings are hung by the chimney with care in hopes that catnip mousies soon will be there.




Our Yule tree. I made all the ornament.




Okay, okay, so Carlos Cardinal is not a furry creature. But he does come by for a snack sometimes. And the kitties LOVE to see him!




And here's Wally Woodpecker. He loves his suet!



And here are some pictures of our house and yard after an ice storm. Isn't winter beautiful?







This is why I don't use the magazine holder in my office for magazines




Sometimes Freckles actually poses for me




KC communing with Samantha Squirrel




Samantha herself




Cadeau conversing with Samantha




Skitter, Freckles, and KC discussing what to do with the fruit




Cadeau and Mimi. This is why people seldom get to sit on a whole chair at our house.




KC helping me set up a new altar in my bedroom




Freckles is about to nudge KC from his position at the bar! Yeah he STILL has that little drinking problem.




And speaking of drinking, Puck LOVES green tea! So I always give him a little bowl of it. Keeps him out of my cup (usually)




Cadeau checking out my shopping bag. You never know what surprises could be hiding there!




Mimi hiding under my pillow.




Believe it or not, this blob is Skitter




Cadeau checking out the scenery




Sometimes Skitter likes to play dominos on my laptop.




Mimi's cranky because Freckles crowded her out from under the blankets




The sun on his belly! Oh life can be SO difficult sometimes!




KC daring me to make the bed.




For once Freckles pauses to pose for me!




Our friend Daisy Deer came by to visit and to munch on some flowers in our yard. This is taken through a window so we wouldn't startle her.


Okay so Sarah the snake isn’t a furry friend. But isn’t she lovely?






Cadeau chilling in the middle of the kitchen floor. Gotta keep up with all the happenings, after all!




Skitter under the dining room table. That's where he goes when he wants to be alone. (So of course I follow him there with my stupid camera!)




Puck lodging a complaint. There's no fire in the hearth.




Mimi and KC on my bed. This is why some days my bed just doesn't get made.




Freckles. Some days are just like that.




Cadeau is KING OF THE HILL! Or at least king of the cat condo.




KC Chilling by the window in the living room.




Skitter's on a mission. (My guess would be going for a snack.)




Puck likes to help me with my research.




There's always some smart alec who comes along and interrupts your nap with a camera! Poor Freckles!




Mimi has made herself at home in my new office on my new office chair (her new favorite place)




Okay, so Charlotte isn't a furry friend. But she's a beautiful spider, don't you think?



Other pictures



The roses and clematis growing on the pergola




Another shot of the pergola with roses


peony bushes

Puck trying on my desk in the new office and finding that it fits him just fine


Cadeau


There's Cadeau in the kitchen again!

KC in the kitty condo. I think he was watching Cadeau. You never know what offensive thing Cadeau's going to do


freckles


Having checked out the stereo equipment, Freckles is about to take a stroll across the mantle


Skitter and KC


Skitter and KC on the baker's island in the kitchen.


Mimi

Mimi


Poor Mimi! She STILL can't make up her mind!
