Party? No, we would never have a party without you!

Look around...doesn't the house look great? Whew!

Grandma and Grandpa come back today

Hey Boo- how much time do you think we have to clean up ?

Grandma sent me Birthday dinner photos

Looks like a lot of fun- maybe a little TOO much! REALLY Dad and camper Alex???

Happy Birthday to you, Happy Birthday to you

Happy Birthday dear Grandpa

Happy Birthday to you

( you can feed me when you get home)

Happy Thanksgiving...sigh...

Looks like I'm staying put - now Grandpa has packed up and gone to Camp Holliston to visit the kittens there- and a dog!  Grandma's friend Betsy is coming over for food and conversation. I admit I was rude and hissed at her- but when she walked away from me I thought "hey- this gal is ok!". She's back today- turkey is on the menu!

Start spreading the news...I'm leaving today

I want to be a part of it- New York, New York...

Today

I'm in a New York state of mind 

Ah New York...

My parents are in The Big Apple while Boo and I help Grandpa. I'm surprised Mom and Dad have never taken me to see any shows there, especially given my appreciation of music. "Cats" is my all-time favorite of course- maybe if I post pictures from home it will have them humming "Memories " and give them some great ideas for Christmas, my birthday and National Cat Day ( October 29).

Welcome back Dad!

I hope you know how much I've missed you!

To bed, to bed, you Sleepyhead!

Long day at work Grandpa?

Time to sit down in your chair and watch the news. Then we'll discuss!

Sometimes I try mental telepathy

Petunia to Grandpa: kitchen sink=dirty dishes=breakfast.  Have all of the campers been fed?

Flying solo is not easy

So we give Grandpa reminders of what he needs to do ( like feed us).

Did I tell you Grandma is in Camp Virginia?

So Boo and I are taking care of Grandpa

Working on it

We can be in the same room now- and I've moved closer to Grandpa!

An uneasy peace

Ok Mom, it's happening just like you said it would-Boo and I are learning to get along. Are mothers always right about these things?

High winds in Ohio

This weather is so unpredictable- one day I'm sunning myself and the next I'm hiding from branches hitting the windows!  Even the Trickster Squirrel had a bumpy ride!

My last PPP- the paparazzi!

How do they do it?

And this one...

Cute girls with long legs

Peeve #4

Unrequited love...sigh...

PPP#3

Lazy cats

PPP#2- Cookie hogs

Thanks a lot, Milo! Now check out this closeup!!

My new column- Petunia's Pet Peeves

Those who know me must often wonder what thoughts are in my lovely head. I've been thinking of keeping track of things I notice.

This would definitely be my #1

There there...you'll be ok Dad...

Like Mom says- buck up!

Pssst...guess what I heard...

Grandma says my Mom is coming back for a visit while my Dad studies paintings with cats. Maybe I'll get to see her!

Feeling better

But totally exhausted!

Where do campers rest when they have colds?

Pretty much wherever they want!

Camp Ohio Newsletter

This week, led by Grandpa, the campers all took turns having a flu bug. Boo took care of the Boss...

Everyone loves Grandpa

He's acting like he doesnt know how popular he is- but I bet it makes him really happy

Trick or Treat at Camp Ohio

One knock at the door this year...dressed up like a black cat... OK Milo- I know that's you !!
