Surprise Party!

Mama and Daddy thought they were going to a family birthday/Mother's Day celebration on Saturday, but it turned out to be a surprise party for them. Their 25th wedding anniversary is later this month. (Mama says to mention that they were only 20/21 when they married.) They were completely surprised. Four members of the wedding party were there including two that now live in different states.

Mama said the party area probably was decorated better than her actual wedding reception. There were photos all over including photos of us. Grandma "stole" them from my blog.

(Mama said this photo of us was one of the favorites.)

There were photos streaming on a computer monitor. The food was catered. There was a cake that Mama said was delicious. Mama said she was so shocked that she could barely eat. She said if she could always feel like that, she would loose weight.

Mama said that it sounds like the whole family was involved in planning and decorating. It was quite an undertaking and they definitely went to way too much trouble, but it is very much appreciated.

After the party, the friends came back to our house to see our new house and, of course, to see us. We were very excited to meet them.

It was a fun day!

The Cows Came Home!

Look, we have new neighbors!



Here's a closer look.

We haven't talked to them yet. The pictures were taken from inside our house. They moved in Wednesday night. They don't smell yet. We will keep you posted on that. LOL

Checking Out The Calendar

You all know that I love watching my TV. I love Miss Judy, AFV and Animal Planet. I also love looking at pictures of greyhounds. It's true! Mama has a greyhound calendar and each month, I have to check out the new photos. This is me yesterday. Mama laughed at me because every time I came in the office, I looked at the calendar.

Eaglet News

The eaglets are going to have a webcam and it could start as early as tonight! WVEC said they are getting one ready to go. Mama learned about it in the chat room a few minutes ago. Here is a really nice video of the eaglets new home.

Today has been a beautiful day. It has been sunny and I have been on my deck. I discovered something really neat about the deck. I can watch Scout run in the yard. She looks totally different running below me instead of beside me.

I helped Mama plant a tomato plant today. Yes, just one. We put it in a container on my deck. It will be safe from the bunnies there.

The cows haven't moved in yet, but we do have some down the road. We hadn't noticed them until today. We heard them. They say "MOOOOO, MOOOO". It could become annoying really fast.

We haven't heard the rooster since last week. Mama thought the rooster and the hen were gone, but we saw the hen. Mama said maybe the rooster become Easter dinner. I don't get what she means by that.

Last night, we saw the red fox run by our house. He is very sleek looking. We were surprised to see two small deer in our yard last night. We have animals all around us. We prefer the animals to some of those seedy people that were around us at the hotel.
