Mums

A few days ago, before my accident, I planted some mums in my backyard. I read that they are really easy plants to care for and can handle the winters here in Utah, so I decided we needed to beautify our rocks in the backyard.

Over the past few days since I planted them, they started to open up more and bloom. They have a really nice color that they add to the rocks and really brighten up the area. Too bad I only got 5 of them because we really need some more to fill up the whole area.

Now if I could just get this doofus here to quit pissing on them. I swear, the first plant had only been in the ground for about 5 minutes when he comes over, lifts his leg and pees all over them. It may have been his way of welcoming the plant to the backyard. Or he was showing dominance and letting the plant know that this is his yard. Who knows what this goof ball is thinking...

Do you have dogs? If you do, do they always close their eyes when you try and get pictures of them? Maybe it is just my dogs and doing this is their way of letting me know they are sick of getting their picture taken, so they try and sabotage them.

So many of my pictures of Titus ended up like this where he seems to be laughing at me because his eyes are closed.

Titus is such a weirdo and probably gets sick of me always taking pictures of him.

How could I resist taking a lot of pictures of him when he looks at me like this?

We have a cold front coming through right now and the wind is starting to pick up and he loves to sit outside in the breeze. He gets so hot outside during the summers here and he loves when the weather gets colder. He knows that it means that he can cuddle longer with us without getting too hot.

At least the mums are fall bloomers, so even when it starts to cool off, these things will be in full bloom. Hopefully they don't look stupid all spring and summer and only have color in the fall. Now I just need to get some more of them and get some different colors so we can have them all over the yard.
