Awww Mondays

Join us every Monday for Awww…Mondays.

Post a picture that makes you say Awww…and that’s it.

Make sure you leave a link to your post and I’ll visit your Awww…Mondays post.

What better way to start the week than with a smile.

Squeaker watched us put up the Christmas lights on our outdoor tree. She approves and spent a great deal of time watching the lights fade in and out, blink and all the other cycles they did.

      If we had put a tree up it would have fainted more than once. Squeaker climbs all the way to the top. Afraid she would get hurt, so did the outside tree. 🙂

      Perhaps, but they will probably come down after the first of the year. Happy Awww Monday and week. Scritches to June. 🙂

    Oooh, Squeaker looks so peaceful and chill. The outdoor tree lights look fantastic; I can see her joy in looking at them. But she did take time out to pause/pose for the camera. Adorable~

    As always, your photos of your kitties give me great joy. Thank you, Sandee. Happy Awww Monday and blessings for the Christmas season to you and your loved ones.

    Someone is ready for Christmas! It almost looks like there’s snow just outside your window but surely not, right? The little tree is lovely. I love Christmas lights! Y’all have a wonderful Christmas, my dear! xo

    Great supervising, Squeaker! And we can certainly understand about watching the lights — our housepanther Ava is entranced by them, too.
