Life is Full and Fun

Trudi came for a quickie visit. I mean quickie.  She was here two days, in order to see her first grandson.  We got to visit around all the rest of life going on at the Spinner house. No visit is too short.  It was just wonderful to connect after a year or more of not chatting.
Can you ever get too much of kitty pictures?  Can you tell where one kitty ends and the other begins?
Our new burrito "Kitty Roll".  She loved it, her own little cave.

Kitty Antics 2

This was actually the first clip we took of Thing 1 and Thing 2. We decided to use what we had for cat toys and they love this little rhythm egg, but they are not too sure about Joe playing the Trombone. They took off in separate directions at first but then relaxed enough to eat while the horn blared overhead. It looks like all is quiet and they've settled down into Joe's room for bedtime. Goodnight!

Our House is a Kitty Playground

Midnight is riding the "brown wave" of paper. It makes wonderful crunching noise and is great for hide n seek.
Doesn't Misty look innocent here?
They were sleeping nose to nose on my lap.
We have learned the fine art of cat napping while they play on our laps.

Kitty Antics #1

Well, we have adopted 2 kittens and have had them under our roof just over 24 hours. They are very fun, exhausting, distracting and sharp of claw.  They are brother (Midnight) and sister ( Misty or Shadow). This clip is dark but you get the general drift.

Setting My Sights High

The past week or two I feel like I have been on a Huge Hamster Wheel.  Well, I hope to hop off soon and get a rest.  I am almost finished the baby quilt for a shower this weekend, almost done cat sitting for 1 1/2 weeks, and have basic cleaning jobs, no biggies, to do.  The weather is supposed to be stormy today and it is chilly. Sounds like a day to sit by the fire, watching a good ole movie and sewing binding on the baby quilt.  I still have leftover chili and cornbread to tide me over.  Sounds picture perfect.

What's Cookin?

So the other day I made fresh homemade tortillas loaded with onions, black beans, three cheese mixture and homemade salsa. Oh my, it was delicious.  It is our favorite kind of food. So what to make for election day dinner????  Maybe chili since it is chilly out here in the wild west, or black bean soup???

Fall Weather Wet West Coast Style

I was trying to clean the Family Center and kept getting distracted by the ever changing weather. The Aspens are so pretty right now coupled with the low lying clouds and Buck Mt. in the background.
If you look far right you see Crescent Beach and the water. Every season has something beautiful to notice.
