Chilling in the Backyard

Hullo... today was another nice sunny day and it was a great day for just chilling in the backyard. The cats wanted to come out so Mama hitched them up in their harnesses and off they went. They love to chew grass...

But they also like to do their own thing... as much as possible.

Spooky tends to lie in one spot while Rascal walks around in a bit semi-circle... Rascal and I are best buds you know!

Sigh... it's good to just sit for a while.

Heh-heh... Grampa wanted to cuddle me for a bit too. He lives in our lower suite...

Grampa helped Mama redo a few webbing straps on some of the lawn chairs.

Ummm... can you tell which strap got redone?

Whew... after all that hard work, it's time for a honey beer!

And a fire in the fire pit! Ahhhh.... life is good!

  1. Sunny weather in Canada, you are so lucky. It has been raining the last couple of days. On that picture with you and Rascal it looks like YOU are on the tether, not Rascal.

    Glad to see the firepit is up and running. Enjoy your day outside.

    1. Yup sunny - although there is a bit of frost on the ground - brrrr! It does kind of look like I am on the leash... hmmm... Which is apparently not all that uncommon. Mama says when she was a toddler, Gramma had to put a leash on her when they went shopping cause otherwise Mama was gone! Anybody else have weird human stories like that?

  2. A nice day in the back yard is always a blast! Honey beer? We've never heard of that. We sometimes get to have root beer. We have seen leashes used on small children, but mostly when there are big crowds, like at a big festival or fairs. We're lucky, we never have to have a leash, we get to ride in a backpack instead.

    1. Hmmm.... must be a Canadian beer. Not sure if it is cause because there is honey in it or because it has a honey colour... I'm glad I don't have to wear a leash - riding in the backpack is much more fun! Plus, I am a well-behaved little bear... no leash required!

  3. Looks like you had a beautiful Spring day. The new straps on the chairs certianly brighten them up. They look nice.
