Selfie Sunday – Hanging Out on the Bed

Hi everyone! It’s Millie and Walter here. The snow finally arrived here this past week, but it didn’t stick around for long. We did have a little fun playing in it before it disappeared though, so we were a bit tuckered out after that.

Just hanging out over the edge of the bed here.

These pillows can be slippery!

We’re looking forward to the start of spring tomorrow although we know that snow can still fly until mid-May around here. 

We’re joining The Cat on My Head for their Selfie Sunday blog hop. You should check out the hop to see some of the other selfies. Thanks for stopping by.

Another Sleepy Selfie Sunday

Hi everyone! It’s Walter here. Just another view of us snoozing on the big bed. The weather around here lately has been far from ideal. We had an ice event a few days ago and the yard is like trying to walk on an ice rink. Needless to say, we’ve been spending much of our time like this.

It might look like we are close, but we are not touching. Millie would never let that happen.

Today’s temperatures are above freezing for the first time since we got all our ice so it’s melting nicely. We hope the weather where you are is better than here, but from what we’ve heard on the news, even our friends in California have had some snow!

Sleepy Selfie Sunday

Hi everyone! It’s Millie here. Just another view of us snoozing on the big bed. We hope you enjoy the Super Bowl or whatever you like to watch tonight.

He’s right behind me. Isn’t he?

We’ll be right here watching the big game tonight but mostly we’ll be watching the commercials. It’s always fun to see if there are any good commercials featuring animals. Our mom hopes there is one with those beautiful Budweiser horses.

A Relaxed Selfie Sunday

Hi everyone! It’s Walter here. We had some very cold weather like many of us in the USA this week, so most of our days have been spent lounging around the house.

There is nothing better than hanging out on the big bed. I like using one of the pillows for extra cushioning.

There hasn’t been much sunshine but when there is some it’s always nice to warm your belly! The weather is going to warm up this week and we hope to get more sunny days too.

Selfie Sunday – Final Christmas Card Display

Hi everyone! It’s Walter here. We wanted to show you our final Christmas card display before it was taken town.

We love all the cards we received.

We received some of the cards after the holidays were over but the latest commers were from the furthest away. The long-distance record for us this year is from New Zealand!

Let me lay down so you can see them better.

Since our ribbons were getting full, we put the last couple of cards on the stones that stick out with the stuffed toys. Here is a view without me in the way.

Click on the image to make it bigger so you can find your card.

I hear Millie coming so we will try to do an ussie for you too.

Before we get to that last picture let’s see how our final tally came out. When it comes to our annual contest between us and our parents, we of course, beat them by a lot!

Millie & Walter

26 Snail Mail cards

25 e-cards

Total Card Count – 51

Mom & Dad

12 cards*

Thanks for letting me join you for our final card display.

We love getting all our cards during the holiday season whether by email or snail mail and want to thank everyone that participated in the Cat blogging list that we joined this year.

*One card from our Mail carrier and one from our dentist! BOL!

Wordy Wednesday – Our Christmas Cards

Hi everyone! It’s Millie and Walter here. We’ve gotten lots of Christmas cards from all over the world. Some by email and some by snail mail. It doesn’t matter how they arrive. We love all of them!

You’re supposed to look at the camera, Millie.

Our mom prints out all the e-cards we get so we can display them all on our ribbons. We wanted to lay down so you could see your cards.

I think there are some crumbs on the floor.

Here is a nice view of all the decorations on our fireplace.

Now we’ll give you a closer up view of all the cards. You can click on the image to make it bigger if you want to look for your card. There is one card missing that came in the mail today after we took these pictures.

When it comes to our annual contest between us and our parents, we are, of course, beating them by a lot!

Millie & Walter

22 Snail Mail cards

16 e-cards

Total Card Count – 38

Mom & Dad

11 cards*

Here’s the money shot mom was hoping for.

This morning was the first day in over a week that we had sunshine, so mom took the opportunity to take these pictures. It can be very dark where the cards are hung so every bit of light helps. There may still be a few more cards arriving so we will be sure to let you know a final count after Christmas.

*One card from our Mail carrier and one from our dentist! BOL!

Nature Friday With Walter

Flowers For My Love!

Hi everyone! It’s Walter here. Today I want to celebrate the life of my girlfriend, Tuiren, who left for the Rainbow Bridge about a week ago.

We enjoyed many Blogville events together and I was honored to be her boyfriend for many years. I know she is feeling young and frisky now that she is romping over the Bridge and someday, we will be reunited.

I will always love you, Tuiren.

In honor of Tuiren, I want to share some beautiful dahlia pictures my dad took over the course of the past couple of months at the Webster Arboretum.

The local dahlia society has dug out all the tubers and will keep them safe until they can be replanted next year.

I hope you enjoyed seeing all those beautiful flowers.

As some of you might have heard there is an exceptional winter storm happening in western New York state, but rest assured we aren’t being affected by it. We had a dusting of snow this morning and shouldn’t get much more than that. Don’t worry though we are sure to get our fair share this winter.

Join the Nature Friday Blog Hop

We are joining the LLB Gang for their Nature Friday Blog Hop. You should pop over to their blog to see all the other posts.

Before I go, I have one more thing to tell you about. Do you enjoy getting mail during the holiday season and having more cards come to you than your parents? Well why not join in on the Holiday Card Exchange.

To find out how to add your name to the list just email The Swiss Cats ( swissneko AT gmail.com ). Be sure to include your blog name and your human’s name in your email. We think even our friends that don’t blog anymore could probably participate if you ask nice and reference your old blog.
