Hello friends!
My lilac is finally blooming, and I couldn't wait to bring some of the purple flowers in.
I love the turquoise jar with the lavender blooms.
I had to share this one of my Manx, Olivia.
She was a rescue and is the sweetest and mischievous cat.
She follows me around like a dog, in fact it is hard to get photos, she seems to think she should be included in all of them.
She waits for me at the door when I come home.
She insists on having running water so she may quench her thirst.
She lets me know if her food dish is not full, even if it is 2 AM.
She brings anything she can get her teeth around to my closed bedroom door and by morning I always have treats awaiting me.
Elastics are her favorite but she also brings small toys, wool socks, anything she can manage up the stairs.
I can't have throw rugs at all or she will poop on them. Thank goodness we don't have carpet in our home.
She will attack our other cat if she sees a cat crossing her yard. It sounds terrible, snarling and screaming, poor Mia doesn't even know what hit her half the time.
Even at 2 AM.
She believes she is a lap cat and demands to get under the blanket if you have one on you.
I regress.....back to the lilacs.
You just can't beat the Colorado blue sky.
The scent is heavenly.
Blooms still waiting to open.
I hope you all have a wonderful week!

Shanon, the lilacs are just beautiful and I can smell them from here! They look so great in the turquoise jar. I grew up with a lilac bush and really miss them. It's to hot where I live for them to grow. Olivia is so sweet! My cat also loves running water instead of in a bowl!!
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh Shanon, your lilac bush is exquisite. Ours are getting on the old side, but I still manage to swipe a few sprigs here and there. I love the scent soooo much.

Your lovely kitty is bringing you gifts! When we had a kitty she would escape to the wilds of our front garden. One morning as I was fetching the newspaper-bare foot-I felt something squishy and cold, Daisy had left the heart for me on the front porch! Another time just the nose of a mole! You are being honored by your greatful kitty cat!
ReplyDeleteOh my! I would hate it if she left me a heart! What a sweet kitty you had to leave you such a treat. I loved how you said 'escape to the wilds of our front garden".
DeleteOlivia is a great model. Your lilacs are beautiful. They're one of my fave flowers.
ReplyDeleteWow--that lilac bush is awesome! Mine is not looking good this year. Hopefully better next year. Your kitty is cute:)
ReplyDeleteJust found your simply gorgeous blog
ReplyDeleteYour lilac bush is amazing, mine is not completely in flower yet a bit colder over here in Ireland, what a sweet little cat!

Love that huge lilac tree you have!!! I've always wanted one but never buy one when I come across one for sale. They look so pretty in the aqua jar. I might have to finally buy one ;)
ReplyDeleteLucky you to have beautiful fresh flowers at your finger tips...
ReplyDeleteI'm so jealous...
