Happy New Year

To all of you...A HAPPY New year!

Once in a BLUE MOON!

O.K. so I've always heard the ol' saying about something that hardly ever happens as {IT} "...happening in a blue moon."
So....along with ringing in a new year...we have...a blue moon!! And here hare some pictures to prove it!
Tonight we celebrated New Years Eve at the Shrine Club. There several people were talking about the phenomenon of a "blue moon". It is somewhat a novelty, coming once every 19 years {per one weather forecaster}. Now...understand that when I went out to see this {supposed} blue moon, it was nothing out of the ordinary...as the naked eye would behold! My first photo which looked completely normal as I looked through the lens of my camera; however, this is what I saw when I viewed it through my recall! A definite blue hue!

Then a white moon and a reflection(?) of the blue moon?

Again...

And most definitely...again! Cool!

{snicker...hehe...rolling of eyes and a smile} I just wonder...after having a few "sips" tonight as many party-goers will, if anyone will mention..."hey I saw two moons tonight!"

Happy New Year! I hope 2010 is going to be kinder and gentler to us than 2009! Maybe seeing this beautiful blue moon is a good omen, that we can thank our lucky ...moons...or something like that!

Christmas Day!

And guess what was the favorite of the day! Even if he had to turn, wiggle, tuck himself into the box the Christmas presents came in!

Ahhhhh....success!

A TRUE Red Sox Fan!

Mom and her beloved Red Sox! Roger, you hit the "ball outtah the park" with this one! (Roger is my brother)

Mom, Christmas day 2009

Best Christmas Present ...ever!

Let's play...

O.K....if I can balance the catnip mouse on my head, while standing (sitting) on two paws....THEN can I tear it to shreds????!!

Play Time!

What's a Christmas morning without a catnip mouse, I always say! My Mother insisted on getting on the floor with the four legged kids!

Heidi is studying, planning her stratagy. Mattie is waiting for the mouse to drop to add yet another mouse to his "bit the dust" list!

Hey...hey...has any one seen my other paw? It was just around here a second ago!

I always wanted my very own "Barbie doll mousey" burp...hmmm that was good!
