Fun with Cats

Well I know I keep using the cats as my models, but the cats are so cute how can I resist.

Yeti was so sleepy, I don't think he even noticed the hat on him!

Rossignol enjoyed wearing the party hat from my Dad's 50th Birthday party.

Furry Friends

My Brother and Sister in-laws doggie, Jasper. He was being so cute, posing for pictures for me with his new duck toy.

Strange Happenings

The other day Richard and I were sitting watching TV and we could smell a very fragrant flowery smell and we couldn't figure out where it was coming from. Eventually we figured out that our Corn Cane plant had flowered. I had no idea that these plants flowered at all, nor did it tell me on the tag. I have had this plant for over three years and it has flourished, but I certainly did not figure on flowers. During the day I hardly notice the smell, as soon as it is dark the flowers are so fragrant we have to open a window as it is so strong!

Here is a shot of our plant.

Super Sled 9000

This weekend we spent in Manning Park at my family cabin doing some sledding and snowboarding with my sister and brother in law. Richard and my brother in law created the Super Sled 9000 out of an old snowboard and a rocking chair. The sled worked really well, we towed it behind the vehicle and it would ride up the snowbanks, we likely had it up to about 50 to 60 km/hr. We did try taking it down the sledding hill at the ski hill but we got kicked out by security!

It's amazing what you can make with some garbage.

What a Beauty Queen... I mean King...

I was trying to take a shot of some of my tiara's for a friend who may borrow one for her wedding and Yeti would not stop harassing me..... So I plunked the tiara on his head and he just sat there wearing it. :)

Here is another shot in a different tiara...
