Playing with painted stones

Grace and boys discover the cat-painted stones ... and sometimes actually play with them while I have the camera on! Ruse and, later, Grace were playing "soccer" with a couple of them for a while! It's very fun to watch them inspect and play!!

I've had the largest one for a long time, given to me by a friend when I was still teaching in California. The other six are some that I won in a bid, and which Savannah's mom sent me. I love them all. Soooooo darling!


See also the videos linked at the bottom of this post.

Ruse, checking them out

Ruse, still deciding!

Ruse, getting braver ...

... and braver!

Ooops, Ruse wasn't quick enough. Here's Audace, getting in on the game!



And two videos!

Our 7th Gotcha Day!!

Seven years ago today, Grace and Audace and Ruse came to live in this house. (I can hardly call it "my house" since it's theirs as well as mine!) What a joyous day that was. 

Here are some photos from that wonderful day!

Here's Ruse ... just before his hug this morning!!
