It is warming up a little bit here! And things are starting to dry out. Which is really great, because we are trying to get some privacy fence up in the back, and we are enclosing the front patio in plexi-glass to cut down on wind and eventually snow! We need a few days of good weather to accomplish this. Also we need to put down new stone or wood chips in the dog run, so they aren't coming in all muddy.
Speaking of dogs, today I am going to tell you about a new ball we received for our dogs. Now, I must mention here that 2 of our dogs are from a breed that likes to herd. They are Shelties, or Shetland Sheepdogs. Our other dog is a very high energy Schipperke. I have never before in my life seen such a little dog jump so high! If she was a child they would diagnose her with ADHD. So, I am constantly on the lookout for quality, toys and equipment that put that energy to use. I found Boomer Ball. They make balls for dogs and all sorts of animals, including zoo animals. Now, if zoo animals can play with the balls, surely my dogs can. I received 3 different sizes to try out. My daughters took Lady Grace out in the yard with the Boomer Ball to see what she would do. Look at the pictures and the included video clip. Hit your volume down if barking bothers you!
What is this?
It moved!
Don't touch it!
Let me see!
This is fun!
We also received one of their Bouncy Pals. Lady Grace really loved this one! She kept chasing it all over. Ours looks like a bear, but there are some other choices. There is a lion, zebra, rabbit, monkey and a couple of others. Be sure to visit the Boomer Ball website to see what is available. The Bouncy Pals are $9.63 tax included. They do carry products for ferrets, chinchillas, guinea pigs, etc.

Just had to add a picture of Shadow jumping. The dog has springs in her legs.

Hey Neighbors! Here is a really neat gift idea for someone with a young child. Here we have I Can Sign (First Words) from Baby First TV. Now, I am just going to share right here that we have friends who have taught two of their children to sign at a very young age. And it works! Their children could sign before they could talk. The Dvd will teach your child many useful words that will be used in day to day life. Words like: eat, water, milk, cookie, ear, feet hands, kiss, sleep, book, mother, father, and many other words. Each word is taught in a short video clip where they will see pictures of the word/item and people signing. There is also a little character at the bottom corner of the video signing along. The Dvd can be done on English or Spanish. Also included on the Dvd are printable coloring pages that you can print off by inserting the Dvd into your computer. Inside the cover of the Dvd case is a little booklet that covers some of the words you and your child
When we talk about pests in the home, the most common that we tend to deal with are the creepy-crawlies that find their way in. Ants, termites, and spiders, for instance. Occasionally though, you have a real chance of getting a much bigger, fuzzier unwanted guest in the home. What do you do about the fact your home is at risk of becoming a wildlife sanctuary for some truly unhealthy and even dangerous beasts? Picture by Alexas_Fotos Know the signs It doesn’t matter if you’re in a suburban home, a country cottage, or a fourth-floor apartment. Some animals can find their way just about anywhere. It’s worth knowing the signs of pest infestation so you can confirm it and act on it immediately. Spotting droppings, keeping an ear out for scratching, and looking for signs of nesting like shredded paper, scrunched leaves, and grass clippings around the home without explanation can help you start fighting back.

Hey neighbors, its with a heavy heart I let you all know that my mom (Lori) unexpectedly passed away the end of June. Our family has been taking the time between now and then to be together and remember what a light mom was. I came on towards the end of last year and was planning on fully moving my interviews and review to this website. I intend to to so partially to keep mommas beautiful website going. Thank you all so much for your love and support over the years. ~Mercy
