We'll start out front!
 |
| "Wait -- what's over there?" "Nice garden flag, Mom!" |
She was trying to get us in front of the Japanese Maple. I think she missed. Except for the trunk. Seems like that's the tree's fault, not ours! We moved over by the Burning Bush.
 |
| "Who's over there? The new neighbors?" "I think so." |
We have new next-door neighbors. Staring at them is far more interesting than looking at the camera. What can I say?
Mom thought we should move over by the stairs to the backyard. OK.
 |
| "I can still see them. Hey, new neighbors! We're over here now!" "The honeysuckle is in my way. I can't see them." |
Mom thought we should try the backyard. Fine with us!
 |
| "Oh. Mags. Mom has treats." "Whatever." |
I wasn't really hungry. And the treats were those teeny-tiny Zuke's. You know, the 2-calorie kind? Puh-lease. I mean, they're good ... but Mom offers them one at a time. Seriously.
We moved down by one of the pretty Maiden Grasses.
 |
| "How's this? I love those tiny treats!" "Oh, yeah. Nice grass!" |
I was just admiring the garden. I thought that was what we were supposed to be doing!
Mom asked us to sit in front of the Austrian Pine and the Purple Emperor Sedum and do a "nice pose". Piece of cake!
 |
| "On it, Mom! How about a profile?" "I think she wants us to look at the camera, Mags." "Maggie ... please?" |
Hey. All she had to do was ask!
 |
| "Fine. Here." "I think this is a wrap." "Yeah. I think this is enough for today." |
That last one got an AWFUL lot of "likes" on FaceBook, so I fail to see how these could all be outtakes! Am I right here?!?
Yours sincerely,
Margaret Thatcher
We think these are all masterpieces, especially the last one. I don't know why our Mama is giggling!

Ha ha! I love the first one the most! Of course the new neighbors are more interesting than 2 calorie treats! I get it! :) Actually, I love seeing the outtakes.
ReplyDeleteOuttakes???? We thought they were all great. Add in the commentary and they are awesome. Thanks for the smiles.

I love them! Especially the last one. :)
ReplyDeleteGirls, the photos were great, and it's lovely to see your beautiful Fall (we say autumn) garden. You'll have to persuade Mom to buy some bigger treats if she really wants you to behave !
