Another day of celebration...

 

The Post Anniversary Sale Event?  No, but thanks for asking.  When we first got Murphy, close to Christmas last year, we were told he was one year old.  Joan decided that his birthday would be December 3rd, the day after our Anniversary.  Easy to remember, I guess.

So, on his birthday, Murphy will get extra hugs (he is not a big fan of that), treats, some outdoor time, praise on how smart and handsome he is, and quiet time for naps.  So, yeah, like every other day of the year.


 Happy Birthday, Murph!

Joan has been working on another project: Steph and Dan gave us a gift certificate last year, with the idea of making a personalized 365 day calendar, with images.  Since the gift certificate could be used for any of this company's products, we decided to go for a couple "art images" of the furry boys; matted and framed.  Hanging on our bedroom wall...




Nice contrast against the blue accent wall in there.  And, of course, the boys look good.

I missed posting some photos of the paver project yesterday - hauling pavers to the driveway before the workers got there...

 Yes, we are getting too old for that manual labor stuff, but we had some pavers left over from the original landscaping project.

Some plants removed...


4 plants went out, 7 new ones came in.  Rerouting some sprinkler lines to fit the new plant positioning.  And the pavers, to trim out along the driveway and add more walking room...



This was Joan's pet project, but we all agreed it would be a nice addition.  It matches all our other pavers.
