These are ibis that frequent our area and eat all the bugs in the lawns!! All are white except for one that is multicolored. Don't know how that happened!

The tomatoes are growing fast!! I used all new dirt this time and new buckets. They have blossoms already!

Our "new" rug for dining area! LOVE IT.......and it matches really good.

Suze and I had a weekend of baking cookies!! What fun. Hundreds later, we are beat!

Needed these when we finished!! Yummy!! Took a big batch to the men at Rock's fire station. they LOVE cookies!! Bagged up others to give away, and company that came Sunday, decorated the sugar cutout ones and brought lots of FOOD !!! We are cookied out this year......and have plans for next year already!

Something new for the back fence this year. I have a moon, but haven't put it up yet!

I guess having 2 new kitties is worse than having new babies!! I promise I won't show tooooo many pics of them! They are getting more familiar with the house daily and taking over the living room!!

Little Babe is letting me hold her now, and doesn't run away ALL the time! She purred for the first time today! Hurrah!!

Here they are on top of their condo! Ain't love grand! I call a vet tomorrow to "fix" Sammie!! before it's too late!! What he doesn't know, won't hurt him, or us!

Sammy is growing f a s t !! Cats are a bundle of fun now, but Babe is still a bit afraid--she plays in the living room now though and they "roam" during the night!

One guess at what this is!! Rock's problem kidney stone!! He feels fine now----of course! It isn't a crystal like usual, but breaks up, so is calcium.

Went to Home Depot and got my bedding plants today. These are 2 upside down cherry tomato plants!! I hope to get hundreds of tomatoes from them! They sure are heavy!

This is a night blooming cerus cactus that a friend gave me a few yrs ago. I planted it hoping the yard man wouldn't destroy it!! It has done well, and smells glorious! The blooms last one day only, and close even if you pick them!

Here's how it looks now. We had 3 palm trees, but the middle one died this summer. Rock pushed against it a little and it fell over!! Good thing it didn't fall against the house!

Here they are!! Sammy the Siamese and Babe the Tolkinese!! They are "fraidy cats" at the moment, but will come around tomorrow! They love being petted and fussed over, but of course, are in a new environment and it will take a little time to get used to it. The Tolkinese is half Burmese and half Siamese. What fun we are about to have!!!!!!!!!
