Xena: Mommy said I’m the flower of her eye.
Lucy: No, Xena, the saying is apple of her eye, and what she really said is to try harder to catch the pieces of apple she was throwing to you or you might get hit in the eye by a piece.
Xena: But it’s Flower Friday, so I must be the flower of her life!
Lucy: Whatever, Xe. I can never understand your reasoning. But you’re right about one thing… it is Flower Friday. The sun has been shining all week, and Mom took pictures of us on our walk.
On our way down the sidewalk next to the house, we detoured around the bush that Mom hasn’t been able to trim because Charlotte #3 made her web right in the front and won’t move. This large bush is called “Mom hates it ’cause she has to trim it while standing on a ladder.” 
After we got around the bush, we headed down the road in the sunshine, taking our shadows with us.
This is not our house or mailbox or address or flowers. Proof is that there are live flowers, BOL! We do not even know what kind of flowers these are, but they are pretty and still blooming in October. And you can see how bright the sun is by how I had to squint my eyes to try to look into the camera.
That’s all the flowers for today, but we hope to have more soon from Rocktoberfest that starts this weekend at Rock City! In the meantime, we want to thank Rosy from llbinourbackyard where you can join the blog hop or visit more nice blogs with anipals and flowers.
Xena: Mommy likes me better than those flowers, right, Lucy?
Lucy: Well, yes, and where are you headed with this?
Xena: I must be the flower of her likes!
I am Xena, Mommy’s favorite Schnauzer Warrior Princess Flower.

Thank you Miss BellaDharma. I am sure I am! Xena
No need of protection, my friend. The writing spider moved away and Mom trimmed back the bush. But if you ever need protecting, just meow at me, and I will do my best. Lucy

That’s a writing spider, and although I try to stay away from spiders, I understand they eat bugs that are even more irritating, so I don’t kill them unless they are in the house. Then I am afraid they will bite me while I sleep, LOL!

LOL I love the ‘scientific’ name for that bush that your mom hates. That was funny.
that spider makes my skin crawl but since it isn’t anywhere near me I will say it is very pretty

Apple tree in your belly, BOL!

You know what part of the apple I get tossed to me ~ the core! Yep it is a wonder I am not growing an apple tree in my belly. Apple seeds do contain a small amount of cyanide, which is a lethal poison, but you are protected from the toxin by the hard seed coating. But Lee still picks them out before I get the core, just a little fiber I say.
