SATURDAY PHOTO HUNT

TODAY'S PHOTO HUNT WORD IS

BELLS 

click here to see the list of words

What a great word for this time of year.  I'd like to show you some of our bells

These are the bells I use to call Mom when I need service.

She says she likes they ding-a-ling-ling better than my

meowing screaming

Mom decorates our both of our stair banisters with big

bows and bells

 We have another set of bells on the sleigh.  

Mom also uses the sleigh to hold all the Christmas 

letters we receive

We hope you have a ding dong ding-a-ling Saturday

Hugs
Madi and Mom

{THIS MOMENT} SEE BEAUTIFUL

The purpose of the blog hop 

is to remind us to stop and see beautiful all around you each and every day.

To quote Sugar, 

The PAWsome part of today's blog hop is, for every participant of our blog hop, we will be donating $1. (up to at least $100). to 

St. Anne’s Center Lantern House a continuing 

project sponsored by Goose and His Mom 

Now for our {This Moment} See Beautiful

Mom prepared a collage to show you all the pets who have made her See Beautiful each and every day for the last 37 years.  She says they all taught her all she knows about 

unconditional love.  Below the collage we will tell you about each

furbabe in order of their arrival into the family.

1.  Toto the mighty mini Doxie was the family's first pet...he helped raise my human sis.  Mom has so many funny stories about Toto and the trouble he got into way he certainly saw beautiful in each day.

2. Milky-Way was the second family pet and first feline.  I'm reminded daily that Milky-Way's gentle soul and mild manner paved the way to the peeps heart for me...which is why he gets the centerfold.   

3. Cali, a Cornish Rex, was my human sis's first cat of her very own which she picked out for her 21st b-day present.    Milky-Way and Cali adored each other.

4. Madi made us realize that all cats are created differently.  She came roaring into our house weighing about 4 tons 4 pounds, took over our hearts and gave me lots of gray hairs.  She was the Energizer Bunny taking names and kicking tush!! 

5. Harley, also a Cornish Rex, is my human sis's second cat.  If you aren't familiar with Rexes...let me just say they have the most wonderful  personalities.

Thank you for visiting today and we hope you all  seize

{THIS MOMENT} SEE BEAUTIFUL

MAYORAL THINGS...

SINCE I ACCEPTED THE COVETED TITLE OF 

MAYOR OF BLOGVILLE  I HAVE LEARNED SO MANY THINGS.

APPARENTLY THERE IS SOMETHING THE FIRST FEMALE, FELINE MAYOR NEEDS.....

*
*
*

FACT 1.
A PURSE/LUNCH BAG....WHO KNEW?  CERTAINLY NOT ME

BUT THANK GOODNESS  Tasha,Chip and WHN @ 

Dachsies with Moxie are in the know.  They asked 

their sweet Mom WHN(what's her name aka Agnes) to make me one.  Ms. Agnes said I have just the right fabric for a 

Mayoral purse. I just love all the felines on it...and I think the color looks good with my eyes.  Ms. Agnes I thank you very much for

thinking of me and keeping me in fashion. 

 It has several compartments inside (Mom said it is the feline

Vera Bradley).  I can put one can of Fancy feast in it and several

flavors of treats.

 Every lady knows a new shoes are required when you get a new purse.  I need some advice....should I get 2 pair of  (remember I have 4 paws) the gray pumps, or 1 pair gray and 1 pair black.  

Or I guess I could get a different color for each paw?

Should I get peep toes or solid pumps?

Should the heels be kitten heels or wedge?

Suggestion accepted

Fact 2.

My Canadian buds Derry and Nicki at Fuzzy Tales

Shared the amazing information...did you all know that a Mayor in Canada is called 

YOUR WORSHIP? 

Derry and Nicki asked me what they should call me?

I'm kinda liking Your Worship!! 

Ms. Agness addressed my purse to Mayoress Madi

Frankie our current Mayor is Mayor Frankie.

So I'm currently pondering my future title

Mayoress Your Worship Madi aka

MYW Madi 

What do you think?

Mom was all pumped up  over her 3 cards rec'd Tuesday....
BUT I say a picture is worth a 1,000 words

Stick a fork in US we're

DONE

After a lot of whining and complaining discussion, Mom and 

Dad decided to use the mammoth (7.5') Christmas tree one more year. Even after they brought it in there was more whining and complaining discussion so I had to get them back on task!!

 I bet you don't know why  I like my Christmas Tree......

because it comes in a box  woohoo

 Once I was sure the whining and complaining discussion was over and the box was opened..my job was done.  When I was a wee

kitty, I got in the middle of everything but now

 I find a comfy seat, turn my lasers on high and

snoopervise from afar

 In spite of the whining and complaining discussion

the peeps did a good job.  Before long I bet you'll

see a picture of me sitting under my tree on the red

tree skirt which was crocheted by Dad's Mom along time ago

 Mom even deck the mantel with garland, silver and gold candles and a Santa on each end to balance things out.

If not been for the whining and complaining discussion,

I would give them an A+....but points were deducted for the 

W and C  I gave them an A-
Mom always hangs their cards from our staircase railings she says she'll show you that if she gets more than 5 cards. MOL
Yep more whining and complaining!
