Happy Mother's Day!

Happy Sunday everyone! We want to wish a wonderful Mother's Day to all the moms out there, including all pet moms. May this day be special in every way. Russell and I also have heartfelt thoughts for both our moms who are watching over us. We miss them always.

This past week was good and quiet. Our weather was not the best, especially the past few days so we didn't get anything done outside. The forecast for this week is spectacular, lots will get done. First item on the agenda is to cut the grass....it is so long!

I plan on buying my garden herbs in the next few days. Due to our upcoming landscaping work, I will not plant them in the VegTrug this year. I'm not sure whether I will do our front planters before we go to Italy ... still thinking about that one. 

Our boys are doing well. They now get the retrieve game completely. They retrieve, bring back and drop the toy, both individually while the other waits patiently. That in itself is amazing! It is not easy to train two young pooches at the same time so the "wait your turn" training is crucial LOL!

In 10 days, we will be on our way to Italy. Lots to do between now and then, including a few appointments for both of us. Yesterday, I brought up the suitcases. That's a good start. We also have to get Merlot's birthday pics done before we go. Our sweet boy will be two on May 22.  I will post his birthday pics from Italy. 

As my Mother's Day treat, the boys got me chocolate covered strawberries from Becky's Berries. They are so delicious and juicy! I might just have one for breakfast 🍓

That's my blog for today. We might go for a walk later then Russell will cut the grass after lunch. Can't do it before then as per the city's bylaw. Our dinner will be easy, my favorite ground chicken burgers on the barbecue. 

Have a wonderful week and Happy Mom's Day!

Happy Mother's Day - me and my Boys!

Becky's Berries, a perfect Mother's Day
treat and so delicious!

Always time for to play and rough
housing - even in the kitchen!

Do we smell dinner about to be BBQ'ed.
Looks like some hanger steak for the grill.

The Boys laying down on the job....
wonder what is going on inside?

The morning patrol....Sherlock with his bull
toy and Merlot his constant companion as they
do laps around the kitchen.
