Good Morning LL!! 
(Ahhhhhh.... elixir! Thanks Elsa), and Happy Catmint Caturday!
LL! It's is I, Elsa, KBP, president and CEO of Coffee Cat! Life is GOOD! GUESS WHAT! Paw Prints Pizza is open and ready for business! They are running a Caturday Catnip special today, in honor of Catmint Caturday - lots of nip in those pies! They have even used their signature nip cheese.
Best order early! so. well. anyways. Coffee time! For today, I proudly offer Elsa's special 10 hour energy coffee, and Double shot espressos, with beans from deep within the mountain slopes of Africa, AND.... for all my Mocha fans: a venti quad peppermint white chocolate mocha, with peppermint infused whip, garnished with peppermint candy chips and white chocolate shavings... It is my bean's fav! SWEET! OH! No worries, a dollop of peppermint and vanilla and chocolate and caramel swirl ice cream, on top of a dollop of fudge, sprinkled with peppermint chips and a chocolate caramel drizzle.... Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh....... mega good!
I hope everyone had a great day yesterday. It was a good one here yesterday. William and Nicholas's morning was as typical as they all are, and it continues to be so fun to watch them get along as well as they do. It was very much a water day, but not for the usual Friday reasons.... we did not swim yesterday, but spent the day instead on the Skykomish River. it felt odd not to be on my way for PM swim with Nicholas last night. He and his family were off to a Mariners Game instead. He was so excited to be going, so we will wait til next week to resume the FR night swims, if he chooses that is. Even though we did not swim, I thought it would be good and fun to continue with the FR tradition of the Burger Feast, so I brought that with us to the river. Funny, but it was just as good there as it was after the pool. Nicholas was ever so happy to see that come out of the lunch bag. WOOT! William was elated that Nicholas shared some of his fries! :lol: Here's what I wrote about the day in yesterday's condo: "Hi everyone! I hope your day has been a good one with great weather. We did OK here, sunny by late afternoon, with what should be a great sunset. I think me made 69 here today. of course it wasn't that nice at the river where we were at, but it as doable. Not much sun at all when we were there. There were no rains, so good to go. we did well. We ended up just east of Gold Bar at Big Eddy, on the Skykomish River. It is a fav place of Nicholas, and easy to get too when the other snow bound places are not. It was a little cool there, not the 55 they said, but it was OK anyways. It was a nice laid back fun but mellow time on the river. We spent the morning there, made it home in time for the boys to get in that nap they needed so they could last though the Mariners baseball game tonight. The river was running really high today, but we still had lots of sandy areas in which to let the boys go at it. Funny but Nicholas still calls that portion of the river the stinky fish river - from the time we went in the fall after the salmon run and we found all the dead ones up on the banks. Funny how some names stick. Berry plants are just starting to make their flowers, so it will be a while before they come into being. Nicholas was looking everywhere for the ones he knew. They have alot of thimbleberries there too, in addition to the ever present salmonberries. We waded in the river some, threw the obligatory rocks and sticks, played in the sand, Great time there today. "
Normalcy in MusketeerVille! What to say about the kitties.... They have been good kitties, and even Lola! Well sorta on Lola... Lola will always be Lola. Crazy fun Lola. When I got home last night I watched run and romp. That is so fun to watch, and so what goes down here on FR nights. Elsa just watches, trying to decide what on earth they are doing. What was so funny was that I was home so much earlier on a Friday than I have been in months and they were all taken back a little by that: looked and stared as if trying to decide it it was OK to be crazy for while since I was home way too early, and then off they went to entertain me. There was nothing amiss when I got home. I get a few meows, some leg rubs, they get scritches in return, and then off they go. OH!! WAIT!! One thing!! Lola has discovered flies... 
:roll: She was chasing those pesty things everywhere. One had gotten into the office area so she was flying off of everything trying to catch it. I had things falling this way and that, including one picture off of the wall. :roll: . OMG.... this could really be a problem going forward. Best do my darned-est to keep them out of the house.... Normalcy in MusketeerVille!
Have a great day everyone! It will be a normal Caturday here, for a while anyways: shopping, laundry errands, all those things I never get done when I have the boys. Catch up day! and recovery day from three very busy days with the boys.
In the afternoon however Erin, Jason and Nicholas and William and I are off to the Skagit Valley up north to see the tulips, and the tulip festival. I read that the flowers are gorgeous this year, with lots of them. It should be much fun. Photos for sure!
KITTIES! Remember: think BLUE, think GREEN cat_pet_icon
