Wild Things of The Weekend

I'll be having 3 separate posts today and this is the 2nd one so remember to scroll down! 

Last week I told you about my adventure to the JCC Campus and touring their Community Garden.  Well, I found out about another one over at the Conservation Demo Area in North Warren.  They really need to publicize this more because I had NO idea!  Read all about it HERE.  I know right where it is and I want to check it out soon!  This is much bigger than the one in Jamestown.  The spaces are 25X25 and are only $25 per year.

In my last post I was telling you about my travels and adventures of my Produce Hunt.  Well, before I left I got into  my car and directly above my windshield I saw this gorgeous fella!  My husband's Grandmother LOVES Cardinals.  I think I might post it to her Facebook Wall.  I noticed that we have a Cardinal's Nest in a tree on the other side of our house...actually the tree itself is in our neighbor's yard but the branches flow over into our side yard.  That's ok because we have a tree in our yard that flows over into their yard so it's an even trade!

Even though the weekend was WONDERFUL and I enjoyed nice weather, beautiful produce, and wild life - both indoors and out - the kids had a really lazy Sunday! 

Suzie was sprawled out on Hubby's recliner.  She's not that big of a dog but she tends to take up a lot of room!  She was sound asleep half way thru the day!

Paco, however, took more time to calm down and unwind yesterday.  He was back and forth between the Sofa, the Recliner, and the Loveseat!

In this photo I just LOVE the way his legs are laying there!  It's times like these he totally lives up to his name/type of chi - Deer Chihuahua.

But things progressed...in this evening of Paco-Chi...

He became quite tired.  I think he was trying to fight it.  This photo makes me laugh every time I look at it.  It looks like he's smiling but it also looks like he's almost falling asleep sitting up!

This pose didn't last long, tho!  As soon as he heard Riley and I move...he moved...all the way over to the Sofa...

...and under the blanket!  He burrows himself in blankets.  Stereotypical of Chihuahua's from what I have seen and heard.  I still can't get over how cute it is, tho!

In this case - he did his burrowing - but then popped his head out and went face first into the sofa cushion.

There was NO argument when it was time for bed!  The little bugger was POOPED out last night!

In my 3rd post - which will be posting in a couple of hours - I will have LOTS of food posts and photos and recipes!  I hope you will visit back and comment!  You know I LOVE comments!  Did you see any wild life this weekend!?  If so - let me know!

  4. Cardinals have always been a favorite of ours so we were thrilled when one started showing up last year. It visits our yard almost daily so it must have a nest somewhere nearby. For some reason I didn't think that they made nests in trees. I always thought it was hard to reach places like rose bushes and thorny plants. Goes to show you what I know about birds! Great post.

    1. Thanks for visiting and commenting! I don't know a lot about birds, either, actually, so that could totally be the case! I'm just assuming it was their nest that I saw - I hope they weren't being bullies to another type of bird! LOL
