Labor Day Trip

Several weeks ago we took a trip to northwest Arkansas to visit Jane11's Uncle Dan & cousins, Kay and Greg. While we were there we went out to the lake to swim, boat and ride on the jetski. Here are a few pictures...





This is Kay and Greg's house - front & back.



Many thanks to Kay, Greg, and Uncle Dan for a wonderful weekend!

Dominican Republic - August 2007

Here are some more photos from our trip to the Dominican Republic for Er!c's cousin's wedding. The wedding was held in a outdoor gazebo at a nice all-inclusive beach resort on the North side of the island (map). We went swimming, sailing, sea kayaking, beach walking, etc... and enjoyed lots of gourmet food and drinks (virgin of course) from the many all-inclusive restaurants and bars in the resort.

Tofu & Arthur (Music Video)

Here's a video montage of Tofu & Arthur playing.
The song is Veggie Tales - "I Can Be Your Friend"

Friends AT LAST!

We decided to name the new little kitty Arthur (as in Sir. Arthur), and he and Tofu seem to be getting along purrr-fectly! They no longer growl or hiss, and enjoy playing tag and chasing each other around the house (I'll post a video soon). They even share food and water without any squabbles. :)

Arthur did very well at the vet on Monday, and purred the whole time. He's currently being treated for hookworms and got all the necessary shots, but otherwise is as healthy as we could have hope for! Woohoo!!!

It's A Boy!

This weekend we adopted another "rescued" kitty. A friend of ours at church mentioned to us that she had some kittens they were trying to get rid of. Evidently her coworker found the 4 kittens under a lawnmower and wanted to put them to sleep.

We had already been talking about getting another playmate for Tofu, and decided there was no better time than the present. So after church we met the two remaining kittens and picked out a very friendly & playful little orange tabby boy kitty.

Tofu was NOT AT ALL happy about the her new little playmate and spent the rest of the day in a rather sour mood - growling, hissing, sulking...

(Check out this picture of her hissing. You can definitely see the anger in her eyes!)

Today (Sunday) there has been much success! I encouraged the kitten to play with some toys which intrigued Tofu. She watched him play and eventually they were both playing and interacting with each other, positively. :)

Here are a few more photos:

He is such a friendly little guy - Loves to cuddle & purr.
I think he'll make a great lap kitty.

UPDATE: Monday morning they were taking turns chasing each other around the living room, playing "tag". They both seemed to be having fun, I think... I'm sure it's mostly just part of the process of establishing their roles & respect for each other, but at least they weren't growling or hissing! :) Jane11 will try to take the kitten to the vet sometime today to get him checked out - shots, blood test, etc...
