Sisters Gracie and Dolly

I was quite honored to receive an Inspiration Award from my friend Kim from Cindy Lu’s Muse.

Thanks KimI just love her blog and think that Kim has the most inspirational posts going, so it really was a surprise and an honor to receive this from her.  If you want to see some other great bloggers, go check out her post, there’s some goodies there fur sure.  Thanks Kim!!!

Also, every Memorial Day weekend our town hosts Freedom Weekend Aloft which is a terrific festival and celebration.  They have tons of balloons here every year too and this year was no exception.

Here’s a sampling of what we saw out our front window this year…

Zip! Later!

Congrats on your award! Gracie and Dolly look they have everything figured out. What a perfect spot!

Those balloons are beautiful. We have been to a few of balloon events up in Wisconsin. I am pretty sure I would not want to ride in one either!

Congrats on that award. That really is a great blog of Kim’s. We will have to go back there and visit more often.
We didn’t know you lived that close to the Freedom aloft. What fun. I wouldn’t go up in one of those balloons either.
Hope you have a good week end and stay cool.

it is well deserved!
you are so lucky to see all those lovely balloons, but we agree,
it would be very scary to be up so high in the sky!
we also love the snuggly picture of the sisters 🙂

Concats on the award! And we think seeing those balloons would have been pawsome!

We’re not sure what we’re up to this weekend, but the mom says her weekend *won’t* involve painting in the house for a change. 🙂

Enjoy the window whiffies and bird TV!

Concats on the award – you deserve it!! The girls look very comfy by the door.

Nothing too exciting here. Mom has another transport on Saturday and then a kitten shower at the shelter. Goofing off on Sunday!!!

It’s nice when sisfurs get along so well! Those balloons are pretty but they might be too scary for us.

I like that picture of Gracie and Dolly snuggling! One of my dreams is to go hot air ballooning on the Serengeti and see all the wild animals from up high 🙂

Congratulations on you award Brian, all your hard work for kitties is indeed an inspiration!

Thanks for the well wishes for Toby. We’re hoping for the best.

Great balloon shots … fun to watch, but I’m not so sure I’d like riding in one, either!

It would be fun to watch all of those balloons. I think I would try it, if I had the opportunity. A lot less scary than something like skydiving, and I imagine the view is incredible.

Kudos to you Brian, you are indeed an inspiration to all, furballs and us humans.
So, congratulations for a well deserved award and honor!

Love the balloons. They also appear in the skies here once a year but, Bailey
is a little afraid of the noise.

Have a great day!

One year we live near a balloon festival and the balloons went over the freeway by mistake and they landed in our yards in our neighborhood. We got a SUPER close up. haha

Both you, and your blog are very inspirational and deserving of award recognition…Congrations, it is lovely! Seeing your sisters side-by-side watch life go by makes us smle. Do hot air balloons and their propane heaters make your ears hurt like they do ours (we howl when they fly overhead)? We have lots here in ABQ because of our thermals…beautiful but harsh on the ears. This weekend is swap cooler weekend, dad is going to hook things up so we will be cooler although momma says that will guarantee cooler weather (either way, we win, right?). Have a great weekend!
