Rather a blah day here, cold and wet for the first day of May. But we wanted to at least share some fun photos from our week. I also wanted to thank all of you for the wonderful birthday wishes. I had a great day and I will share with you later this week the special surprise the Momster got for me.
We actually had a few spectacular sunny days here in OP, true springtime weather. And just wait until you see our yard.
Just chilling by the playset - no new residents trying to move in to the lower level of our condo. And we hear the new paint job is going to be happening soon.
Enjoying a gorgeous afternoon and hoping we were going to get a walk - and we DID!
Yes, the grass is nice, maybe not as much fun as the no-sibe zone.
There it is - and it is still intact. Ciara is proud to tell you that there have been no breaches of the border.
Just passing by.
And yes, the hostas are flourishing.
The new fence has been such a success that the Momster is getting braver.
Do you see what I see? Fresh, new, young plants above me in the planters. And look behind me, she has even dared to put out two pots with plants in them.
Seriously, Mom, do you really think this is going to happen this year? WHAT???? You are putting ME, Thunder, in charge of protecting the pots???? Now we are sure you have lost your mind.
What was that? Where is Phantom? We haven't forgotten to include the other member of the pack. Poor Phantom is sick again.
Phantom posed for this shot earlier in the week when he was having a good day. Look at that smile.
But he finished his meds on Thursday, and by Saturday all his sickies have returned. He will be off to the vet again tomorrow.
Ciara has her paws crossed for her big brother to be feeling better.
Woos ~ Phantom, Thunder, and Ciara
OMD! How did I miss your birthday!
ReplyDeleteI am so proud of Ciara for resiting the call of the hostas!
I hope you're feeling better, Phantom! Paws crossed!
Beautiful pics! Beautiful yard! Thunder, we know you can be a good watch dog over those planters! And Ciara, wow, you didn't breach the fence...pawesome girl! Phantom, what a handsome smile you have - truly megawatt! We are all thinking of you, and praying you will get rid of those sickies very soon. Good luck at the vet's tomorrow. Husky hugs coming your way.
ReplyDeleteYou have such a beautiful deck and yard! No breach at all!! Phantom, please get better...we will be praying for you to get much better and we sure hope the vet's visit goes good. Lots of love, Holly and mom
ReplyDeleteGet better soon Phantom!!
ReplyDeleteRA & Isis
What well-behaved doggies you are, guys! Look at all those plants!
ReplyDeleteSo sorry to hear that Phantom is sick again. Paws crossed that he feels better very soon!
I, Jack don't have all vaccines taken yet and can't go for walks with them.
Thor and Jack xx
We're so sorry we missed a birthday. Please accept our belated happy birthday wishes! And we will most certainly cross our paws for Phantom. We are so sorry he's not feeling well.
ReplyDeleteOh NO... I am so very much sorry to hear that Phantom has the sickies. I am joining Ciara with my paws tightly crossed fur him to be much better soon.
ReplyDeleteI loved the tour of your beautiful yard. The no Sibe Zone is just lovely... butt I am still thinking it would be STELLAR with a Sibe or two in there.
Glad you could get out and enjoy that lovely garden. Plants are looking good. Thunder, you are going to have to watch Ciara.
ReplyDeleteWe're crossing our paws for Phantom, too. We're sorry to hear that he's feeling sick again.

When I was about 12 my family moved. Of course we got a puppy :-) My mother planted some flowers in the yard and put some chicken wire around them. One day I overheard her saying, "Daisey, STAY OUT OF THE FENCED-IN AREA!!" I started laughing at the absurdity of this command - like Daisey knew what the FENCED-IN AREA was. But you know what? She never dug up those flowers after that!!
ReplyDeleteChanneling my mother: PHANTOM, FEEL BETTER!!
Gentle rottie kisses!
Your garden is looking pretty good!
ReplyDeleteWe're sending purrs, prayers and wags to Phantom.

Poor Phantom. Paws crossed for you, buddy.
ReplyDeleteAll of you have been good to obey the rules. We'll be getting some beautiful flowers to look at soon!
ReplyDeletePoor Phantom. Hope he is not in too much discomfort. We are crossing our paws for him too.
Beautiful photos but poor Phantom :(

Ciara, I can't believe you are being such a good dog..I have already excavated some of my Mom's new plants!
ReplyDeleteSorry your big brother is feeling bad again. I'm crossing my paws real hard and Stanzie is too.

Pawsonally, I do think Ciara be lulling the hoomans into a false sense of sekurity. I mean, that is wot I would has done at her age. Not now, of course. Stop laffing. Sorry Thunder has the sickies. And Happy Birfday!
ReplyDeleteThe Power of The Paws!!!

PeeEssWoo: Hey Ciara...I think she's taking the bait!
Thunder, we're glad you had a great birthday!
ReplyDeleteCiara, looks like there's lots of new play things, we mean pretty flowers on the deck for you to, uhm, look at!
Phantom, we're crossing our paws and sending purrayers that you feel better soon!
Protecting the pots, BOL! Sounds like a little reverse psychology!! Do you really think they will fall for it MOM??
ReplyDeletePaws crossed for Phantom. We all hope you feel better real soon. <3
Oh no, we missed your birthday!!! Sorry. Wishing you squizzles and treats and hugs.
ReplyDeleteWe’re taking a blogging break. Back in 3 weeks!
Paws crossed for Phantom!
ReplyDeleteWell done Ciara on leaving the garden flowers alone! We hope you leave the pots alone as well!!
We hadn't had about that book that your Mom mentioned to us yesterday but we are going to google it now!
take care
Clive and Murray
We are crossing all of our paws for our buddy Phantom.
ReplyDeleteTDK, the pics of you and Ciara are fabulous!
Woofs,
Tommy (and the Chans too!)
I hope Phantom is feeling better soon - poor guy that is no fun having the sickies. The photos were wonderful in the garden and it is looking very green and pretty.
ReplyDeleteBrilliantly beautiful pics!
ReplyDeleteLove the smile Ciara puts on against the sunlight!!
We'll keep our paws and fingers crossed for Phantom!
Hope he gets well again soon!!
Cheers,

Poor Phantom! hope he feels better soon.
ReplyDeletei'm giving those pots 2.5 weeks. tops. ciara is worse than juno and my danskos. just sayin.
GREAT pics! Hope Phantom feels better soon.
ReplyDeleteIt sure did look like a fantastic week. Hope Phantom feels better
ReplyDeleteBenny & Lily
Da most important ting....we haves all 44 paws crossed for sweet Phantom. He gots to get better soon. All our good vibes and Florida sunshine is on da way.
ReplyDeleteNext ting....Da NO SIBE ZONE seems to be intact. Gorgeous flowers!
I'm so sorry Phantom isn't feeling well. My mom & I will be thinking of him. My mom says nice hostas! Ours are coming up but it's only a matter of time til the deer come and mow them down. Hostas must be sweet?
ReplyDeletePedro
Everything is very green here, too but will be moldy green soon if the rain doesn't stop.
ReplyDeleteI hope Phantom is feeling better. Poor guy can't catch a break.
Phantom, I am so furry sorry you are sick again. My paws are crossed that you heal, and quickly!, and I am also sending you lots of positive thoughts and prayers! Get well soon!!
ReplyDeleteCiara, I love how you are nonchalantly wondering around the No-Sibe Zone. If anything just happens to occur in the No-Sibe Zone you can just blame it on the bunnies and squirrels. Or neighborhood cats!
Suka
p.s. Your yard, and your mom's plants, are very pretty! Hope they stay that way! BOL! ;->
Oh Phantom sorry to here your not feeling to well, my paws are crossed to ;)
ReplyDeleteWell done Thunder and Ciara for looking after moms plants. Love the ones on the deck, you must show us them again when they have grown.
Have a good week
See Yea George xxx
We came over from the Dog Foster Mom!
ReplyDeleteHope Phantom feels better!
BTW, I love the head tilt in the banner photo! :)
Oh, dear friend, I hope your Phantom is gonna feel better. He has such a sweet smile. Actually, all your pack does. I tell you, Ciara has my heart. I just love the picture where she's looking up and her eyes are closed by the "fence."
ReplyDeleteYou may be onto something with that fence dealio! Get you, the brave soul putting those planters and pots out! Neva, Neva, Neva give up!
Feel better Phantom!! GO AWAY SICKIES!!!! All our paws are crossed for you!!!
ReplyDeleteWe only have three sets of paws left here. But I promise all are crossed. FINGERS TOO.
ReplyDeletePhantom beautiful guy. Lots of hugs :-) x x x Mum Lots of hugs x x x
wow all the plants look great! But so does the dirt!
ReplyDeleteI have my paws crossed for Phantom to have his sickies go away! BAD sickies!
You all look so beautiful in your fotos!
woo woos, Tessa
Our paws are crossed for you, Phantom! Get well soon!
ReplyDeleteLove ya lots,
Maggie and Mitch
Poor Phantom. I send my best purrs for him!
ReplyDeletePoor Phantom. At least you've probably learned something about what the problem is from the fact that he responded to the meds. Our paws are crossed here too.
ReplyDeleteThe momster is getting very very bold! I bet that Ciara is lulling her into a sense of security. And then, Boom! Our R has done that to us many times :)
Just kidding... Maybe your puppy is growing up. Funny, she still looks small to me. Perhaps that's because I met her as a puppy.
What beautiful green grass and flowers!
Feel better, Phantom! We're crossing our paws for you!
ReplyDeleteOur paws are crossed for Phantom too. Hope the nice weather and a trip to the vet will help.
ReplyDeleteI am amazed that the wee little fence is still standing. What good dogs.
Slobbers,
Mango
Oh my- what BEAUTIFUL DOGS!!!
ReplyDeleteI just found your blog (because you commented on my friend's blog!)
But I'm happy you did! Now we can be friends too! =)
crossing paws for Phantom too.
ReplyDeletegood luck with the new plants :)
We've got our paws crossed for Phantom too!!

What beautiful shots of your guys and your spring yard!! Try to avoid those pots! We all have our paws crossed and are praying for Phantom.

It is still to cold in Thunder Bay to think of plants. We can't plant anything outside until the full moon in June.
ReplyDeletePaws all crossed for Phantom.
Love Ruby & Penny
Poor Phantom...we hope the vet can help him feel better again. And we think you all are being wonderfully restrained about those plants and fences and things.
ReplyDeleteWE know you are just lulling the Mom into a false sense of security and then...............

Wow your yard is stunning, great job!
ReplyDeleteGet well soon, Thunder!

Hi Thunder! We are so sorry we missed your birthday - so belated happy birthday! We hope you had a very fun day!
ReplyDeleteIt is too bad that it was a gray day Sunday but the rest of the pictures look like it was so nice! Your yard is looking great! We are impressed you haven't breached the fences yet - it looks so tempting!
And we are sorry that Phantom is sick again - we are sending him tons of get well purrs and prayers!! We hope he is better soon!
We are sending healing thoughts your way Phantom.
ReplyDeleteStay away from the pots!!! you don't want to dirty your beautiful furs little girl!

What a beatiful yard and garden you have!! My paws are crossed for Phantom too, and hope he is better now!
ReplyDeleteOH Thunder, you look sooo goofy in that 1st picture! Those pictures are very nice. You pups pose very nicely. Poor Phantom. I hope the next round of medication will get rid of his sickies for good.
ReplyDeleteSorry your brother is feeling sick. What a beautiful back yard. We are in charge of taking care of the plants, too. Mom is also thinking of fencing for the veggie gardens. She would prefer we learn to stay out. With Katy joining the fun, I don't see that happening.
ReplyDelete-Bailey & Katy
Oh Phantom, we are sending all the power of our little paws your way. Hope this week finds you feeling a little better.
ReplyDeleteWonderful photos. We have all of our paws crossed for you Phantom, get well.
ReplyDeleteRemy and Flash
I also have my paws crossed for my woofie friend and hope he feels better soon. I think maybe the little one is growing out of her plant destroying stage. paws crossed. Hugs GJ x
ReplyDeleteWhat gorgeous photos, as usual. I can't believe the boy had another relapse. What can I say? Good luck buddy and good luck to the entire family too...

What happy, happy pictures! I'm so proud of you for not digging up mom's plants, Ciara. Pawsonally, I don't know if I would be able to resist.
ReplyDeleteMy paws are crossed for Phantom, too. I sure hope he feels better soon. Please give him a little kiss for me, okay?
Wiggles & Wags,
Mayzie
My paws are of course crossed for you Phantom

You are mighty brave, indeed, to put those new plants up on the deck! We haven't had a potted plant outside on our patio since Riley was about 6 months old and she completely dug up the flower pot we had out back! Now Grandma wants to put a hanging planter up on the fence, but we just haven't gotten around to doing it yet.
ReplyDeleteI still love that little barrier you put up for the No Sibe Zone! It's very attractive and we can't believe it's kept the Sibes out so far!
Elyse and Riley
Beawootiful pics - looks like maybe your mom will get a chance to enjoy her flowers this year, huh? Paws crossed fur Phantom.
ReplyDeletejack & moo
Looks like the momster did it, she outsmarted you guys with the fence. You're all being so good. :)
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely garden! I hate hearing that Phantom is sick...many hugs
