Happy Birthday Grandma

Two weeks ago Mom, Erik, Brittany and I took a trip to Ventura California to see my sweet grandma for her 84th Birthday.
Of course being a humble sweet lady, she really didn't want to do anything for her birthday but we made her dress up and go to dinner on the Pier for a great Salmon dinner. We had the best waiter, he just made her feel like the whole night was all about her. He brought her flower after flower that his dad grew in his own yard and had the whole restaurant singing to her. She was the happiest I had ever seen her.  In the morning she kept saying what a great celebration it was! It truly was a great celebration.

Here is an example of some of the beautiful flowers that our waiter brought all of the girls. Not only were they beautiful but the smelt amazing.

It was wonderful to see my cute cousins and spend quality time with them as well.

This is Teddy. I never liked little dogs all that much, because you all know how much I love my big Stella girl. But this little dog is the sweetest little dog you'll ever meet. He is so very grateful to have been rescued to a great and caring women (my grandma) and he shows it more than another dog.
                        We always say "it's great to be a Jensen animal."

Kitty Cats

Layla and Olivia

Our two princess kitties spent the weekend alone at the apartment while we went to Heber to house sit for Todd's parents. They were very very excited to when I came home to them a little bit early, which is different for them because they both have the typical cat personalities where they only show love on their terms. Don't get me wrong they are very sweet and loving, just typical cats. Now that I have been home with them for a few hours they both won't leave my side. They are very happy to not have a big black dog chasing them around or pinning them to the ground, thinking they want to play.  As I sit here I see both of them sprawled out within arms reach,  It's moments like this when I feel lucky to have two sweet kitties.
