[Michelle and Mannie (GA)]

Good Morning LL!!! (Elsa: best make the quad shots today.... one sleepy bean!), and Happy Furday!
LL! It's is I, Elsa, Lil Bit, kitteh barista!, president and CEO of Coffee Cat! Life is GOOD! GUESS WHAT! today is TPIF Day! YUPP! Thank Pizza It's Friday! Lola and Bug, aka Paw Prints Pizza, love Friday's so they decided that since it is TPIF day that anyone can have any kind of pizza they wants - anythings!!! All with extra nip cheese!!! So get your orders in early! They say this is the way Furday's should be! I am exited too that it's Furday - so... I will make my Coffee Cat special of the day! FRAPPE FRIDAY! YUM!!!! Anything you want - just let me know. OOOOOO this will be such a good day. so. well. anyways. Coffee time! For today, I proudly offer Elsa's special 10 hour energy coffee, and triple shot Cappuccinos with extra foam, made from beans from High in the mountains of Jamaica. And for all my mocha fans: a Venti quad dutch apple infused white mocha, with caramel whip, garnished with caramelized apple clusters, white chocolate shavings and a caramel drizzle...... SWEET! OH! No worries, a dollop of apple and vanilla and chocolate and caramel swirl ice cream, on top of a dollop of fudge, sprinkled with crystallized apple bits and a chocolate caramel drizzle.... Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh....... mega good!

WOO HOO!!!! IT IS FRIDAY FURDAY! I hope everyone had a great day yesterday. Ours was AWESOME! and very very busy... out early in the morning, and we never made it back to the house, out at 8, back at 5. I-) @-) I let the activities director, and his sidekick, pick the days activities. Nicholas always knows that he wants to do, and today the plan was perfect. It did requite some cooperation form mother nature. and.... we got it! It was a day of fishies, and waterfront parks, lunch in the sun, and an afternoon full of swings and slides and beaches and buckets and sand. The weather came though - YAY! Here's what I wrote about the day in last night's post: "Hi Everyone! I hope your day has been a good one. It has been very busy here, another day where I/we never made it back to the house.... :shock: We did well here today. 53 tops, mostly sunny skies, no winds. There will be kick ass sunset tonight. I'm have tempted to head on out to watch it at picnic point. should be gorgeous. but..... truly think I'm done, even considering how much I'd like to see the colors. we were on overload today - out the door at nine, never made it back to the house til 6, as traffic was awful! it was really cold in the morning, like 35, so we decided, well Nicholas did, to go to the Aquarium in the morning, until things warmed up some. It was a great choice, we never tire of the place. Today he as into the tropical fish, and spent alot of time there.The octopus were fun: very active today, all over the tanks! Nicholas asked for the Waterfront Park, so he could eat his lunch near the water. Love that! So we did. By then It was sunny and warm out. It was a given to me that we'd end up at Juanita Beach for the rest of the day. Both boys napped in the car on the way there, so they were all set for an afternoon of swings and slides and sand and water. What great afternoon out under sunny skies, no winds, and warmth! It was mega busy, crazy, but ever so much fun. They both had a great day." AWESOME! one tired grammie after ll was said and done. It is ok though - what fun it all was.

Normalcy in MusketeerVille!! And little to write about. what is up with that? They really have been good kitties yesterday - even Lola. She ran alot, she always does, but nothing was Lola-ized. AGAIN! and AWESOME! Hmmmmmm..... It was so weird to come home and find NOTHING amiss! :shock: When one is gone all day, one misses alot. Maybe that is a good thing! :lol: :lol: Lola did manage a few rail walks, a few frig door rides, and was been pounding just about anything glass.I say it all the time, but I am so glad she only does this while we are awake. ..... :roll: It was late night home for me, all the kitties were waiting at the top of the stairs. LOVE that. So fed them , they purred and off for romps, and a few marathons. Where do they get the energy!? :shock: :shock: :shock: Between Nicholas, William, and the kitties I am worn out just watching them play. :lol: Bug and Elsa were my lap cats last night as I attempted to relax some after whirlwind day. They took turns! :shock: :lol: Lola made a few attempts at getting Bug to chase her, and he finally caved. Off they wet. ZIPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPP! Normalcy in MusketeerVille. :roll: :lol:

Have a great day everyone. I'm not too sure that will be today. Weather is supposed to be cloudy in the morning, sunny in the afternoon, maybe. We shall see how things are once Nicholas gets here and what he has decided about the day. I am sure he knows exactly what he wants to do. GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO Nicholas! We will be swimming in the morning, for sure. AND (!!!) his dad is coming wiht us. This will be great, as William can swim too! Nicholas i so excited that his dad will come to swim with him - he has been talking abut this all week.. if Nicholas still wants to go too in the evening after a full day of adventures we may do that. We have been doing FR nights for quite a while now, and I expect he will want to go. With his dad here though he may elect to just head on home for someone on one dad time. We shall see what winds out. ;-) I will try and get to condos when I can. Sorry that I keep missing so many of you.

KITTIES! Remember: think BLUE, think GREEN!! cat_pet_icon

Morning everyone! Lots of this morning, Elsa has been hard at work. ;-)

Hi Melissa lol, but yes, it was a long day, a very busy one. It was such a blast though, I have to agree there. oh yes on today. I will be so fun Nicholas will be able to do somethings with his dad that I haven't approached yet, They have these big tube slides. His dad is hoping to get him on one of those. We hope he meets the height requirements. They both want to do the lazy river together too. I am really looking forward to being able to get William in the water too.

Hi Ella We did: really beach weather! It was sun, maybe could have been a it warmer, but not bad at all for the end of March. no complaints from any of us! Yes on the swimming this morning,. William has been once, a few months ago when the new swim center opened in Snohomish. He really enjoyed that, loved the water. We hope that soon he can go more regularly, once we get things set in the pool for Nicholas and lessons etc. I so hope by this summer we can do that.
Auntie Ella! I know!!! ME TOO! they are the best! I will bring more in a few. ~~ Elsa, KBP

I-) I-) I-) I-) I-) I-) I-) I-) I-) what a day. we really had a great time. We made our normal pool time,. closed out one session, and then another. that was nuts, lol. Jason was great. he's very good at going with the flow, and loved being with his kid, in the pool, seeing what he can do. it was fun for him. that had to be close to 4 hours in the water this morning. i thought for sure he would be done, but nope as we are eating lunch he says ok dad, terrace pool tonight OK? lol. dad bagged out of that one, and I really don't think he expected dad to go anyways. that was another hour in the water, man, I bet that kid sleep swell tonight. Nicholas made his first trip down the tube slide today too, the smaller of the two of them. sheshhh he loved that. dad went with him, well right behind him as they don't allow tandem. that was really cool to watch, william was great - right in there with the rest of them until he got tired. So he slept on my chest/shoulder while jason and Nicholas played session two with the lazy river and the slides.. they were half way through session two when Nick comes up to me and ways "just wait grammie. we are not done yet, Ok?" lol, guess so. i still can't believe that he wnated to go back later and swim terrace, and did so with a much enthusiasm as he had at 9 this morning. WOW! Picassa link tomorrow. Now I'm off to bed... this grammie is TIRED. duh.....

Carla, Rachel - Today was so great - what fun! Nicholas was so happy to have his dad there,. exceptional time. THX too on yesterday, it was nice, busy (!!) but nice. I thought so too on my kitties. Just what I needed too!
