CATURDAY KALEIDOSCOPE ART

 CATURDAY ART

 KALEIDOSCOPE

JUST FOR FUN

The neighbor children had a birthday party and the bounce house was too big to fit in their yard, so it was set up in our backyard.  Then the company decided to leave it there for the entire weekend, so, oh my, did all the kids have fun!  I took lots of photos, all colorful to say the least.  Then just played around with one of my grandboy behind the netting.  Twisted it and turned it, and filtered it, and layered it ... more and more and more.  To create a kaleidoscope of color!  For more colorful Caturday Art, sponsored each Saturday by Athena and Marie, just CLICK HERE.

On another note, we're now working on the June Calendar of Special Events ~ so if you have any events you'd like for us to include, remember to email us with the information please, soon! And we are still looking for one kitty and one woofie volunteer for International Box Day ~ it won't involve any work on your part (we do all the work for you) ... you just have to be a sponsor to help promote the event.  Email us if you're interested, thanks! 

ADDITION To The MAY CALENDAR of EVENTS

Yesterday we published the May Special Events Calendar ~ if you didn't get a chance to see it, just scroll down.  A comment by our friends at Chat Aux Sphynx noted that we had forgotten to include Victoria Day in Canada (ooops) ... so, here we are!  With lots and lots of pet bloggers all over Canada, it is surely a big day to celebrate ... below is what Dragonheart, Merlin and Devi wrote about this special day.

And remember, when you know of a special day or event, please let us know.  Thanks!

Thanks for letting us know about all those holidays. But don't forget Victoria Day! 

Here's the information: 

Victoria Day is a Canadian statutory holiday celebrated on the Monday preceding May 25 in every province and territory. It honours Queen Victoria's birthday. In Quebec this holiday is called "National Patriotes Day" (Journée nationale des patriotes)." It will be Monday May 23 this year. Also known as the May 2-4 long weekend, because lots of people drink a 2-4 of beer over the long weekend! Dragonheart, Merlin and Devi
