Our Special Friends

I hate cats!

This is what I said before Oreo came into our lives. Two years ago, Little Joe purchased a kitten for Inger for her 7th birthday. From just a local pet store. But he is one special cat that makes our lives happy, especially, Inger's.

And now, because we were duped to think all cats are Oreo, we have Snickerdoodles too. Snicks is now one and was raised from one day old by Inger. She bottle fed him and had to mimic a mother cat in many ways. Lots of you tube videos were watched about how to stimulate a baby kitten to use the bathroom. (I bet you didn't know a mother cat licks a baby kittens...you know what...to stimulate them to pee.) Sorry for all the extra info.

So on this 39 degree morning here in Florida, please enjoy these photos of our special cats...and dog...and hens...and parakeets. So thankful for my little Inger who loves animals.

Fun at the Corn Maze

 Last week our friends from Lakeland invited us to join them at a local corn maze. 

"Inger" and her best bud, William had a great morning of playing together.

Sweet little Sopia.

 A few of the gang enjoying a hay ride together.

On the way home, "Inger" had some ants in her pants...

this is her with her big sister's wig on.

A Fun Photo Shoot!

Autumn IS Real!

The little ones here on the Ponderosa have never experienced autumn before. I'm sure they even questioned if it existed as we studied seasons in school. For here in the sunny, tropical Florida, our leaves go from green to brown and fall around February. So part of the excitement of our last trip to see "Hoss" was the kiddos being able to play in the leaves.
"Play?" they asked. "Not rake?"

The Mummie

Just having a little fun with some Crepe Paper!

Summer Fun!

The Ponderosa has been enjoying ourselves at a neighbor's pool. For those of us in Florida, we find pools are a necessity in life! Thankfully we have wonderful neighbors who share.

Happy Valentine's Day
