Rascally critters

Let's start with the dogs. You would think I would have learned after the first adventure but I didn't. Remember when I told you about one of the dogs (Pepper) getting a bag of candy off the dinning room table?
Well, I put a bag of sugar free butterscotch candy on the table. The bag was not open. Every little candy inside the bag was individually wrapped.

Yup, one of them (Pepper) got the bag down and proceeded to eat all the candy. Now, this may not seem blog worthy until you see the pictures:


Let's take a closer look at those wrappers...

Notice anything unusual? In case you don't see it ~ every single wrapper is in tact. They took all the candy OUT OF THE WRAPPERS!!! The wrappers aren't chewed up or ripped apart. They are all nicely opened at the end. How in the hell did they do that?????? See...it is blog worthy! Oh, and yes, they were sick. AND their whiskers had to be washed several times because of all the stickiness. Yeah, they're cute but they are both rascals for sure!

Now lets move on out to yard ~ where a mole is making a home in our NEW LANDSCAPING! Seriously. Everywhere we put mulch is now lumpy with mole tunnels. It's amazing that such a little critter can create such a mess. Last night I spent a 1/2 hour pouring poison in the tunnels, in a dozen or so places. I'm gonna get that little sucker!

And...I know it's not officially summer but it is for me ~ I saw the first lightning bugs Saturday night! As far as I'm concerned, it is now summer :-)
