happiest squirrel ever!!

so, i was preparing my lunch today and i noticed this cute little squirrel. i knew he was a little rascal.

i have this bird feeder in my backyard that has bird-feed on one side and hummingbird syrup on the other. of course this smart little guy has figured out how to snack on our birdseed.

he is so smart and so cute. i had so much fun watching him eat.

i let him sit on top of the solid birdseed and munch for a good 10 minutes.

he is obviously the happiest squirrel ever. free food that is easy to find. no one has ever complained about that.

he was hugging that block of food for dear-life

after giving him a while, i whispered for jack to come up the stairs

he realized that 3 dogs had come out of the doggy door and he scampered off as fast as lightening!!

happy 4th of july!!

howie, leo (my foster dog) and jack are happy to be celebrating our freedoms today.  we are proud to be americans.  we are so thankful for all those who fight today and always for our precious freedoms. we proudly display the red, white, and blue!

my precious howie posing for his mama. this guy is the most sweet, smiley faced guy around. he ALWAYS has a smile on his face. even when i try to discipline him. he makes me so incredibly happy. i sure do love this little guy. i couldn't decide which one i liked more, this one or the next...

i'm telling you, i have the best looking kids around.

this is my frowny faced guy.  jack really does smile sometimes. however, you have to really trick him. he absolutely hates the camera. i absolutely adore this guy more than my life. he makes my life worth living. he is so precious.

he will do anything to avoid looking at the camera.

i got my first veggies from my garden yesterday.  i am so proud of myself. they are delicious and there will be tons more. this is only the beginning

my garden is so beautiful and full of gorgeous flowers

a couple more example more examples of the gorgeous flowers in my gardern

my tomato plants are almost six feet tall. it is like they are on steroids. at one point, there was a walking space in this garden box. there is no walking space now.

howie loves water. he loves when i am watering the garden. he always attacks the hose. it makes me laugh.  he is so sweet.

happy wet boy
