At last, Mom’s back from her travels. She lefted us for a whole month. It made me get up on the roof. Mommy did this with Word Photo.
This is the original.
And Me turn green. Mom did this with Poptoon11.
And the original of me on the bed.
We had to hear about what Mom was doing from our bruvers and sisters in other parts of the world. Mommy said she would be gone a long time, but we didn’t believe her.
Our bruver, Nuggles, in Los Angeles, told us that Mom came to visit him. She has written about him before. He is sleeping here, but before he took a nap, he told us Mom was there for his twins’ Bar Mitzvahs, whatever that is. He said it’s a big party when a Jewish boy turns 13 and becomes a Man. Mom did this picture of Nuggles with Be Funky.
And this is the original.
Mom ran out of steam making art work of the pictures, so she made it just for us kitties and puppies. So this is the original picture of the Bar Mitzvah. Everybody is dancing here, and the twins, named Moshe and David, are the short ones. We had a lot of fun, and the Twins did a wonderful job. Aren’t they cute? Nuggles luvs them and has watched over them since they were babies.
Mommy didn’t come home after the Bar Mitzvah, she went to a far away place, called Israel, to see our other bruvers and sister. She said this is where her granddaughter, Elisheva, lives. And she was getting married. Our bruvers and sister told us All about the wedding and Mommy’s goings and comings while there. Mommy was gone much, much too long. She says she had fun, though. This is our bruver, Munch. He is part Australian Shepherd and part Poodle. Mommy liked him a lot, but, to us, he is just a dog. Mommy used the Etchings app to make his art picture.
This is the original. Mommy told us that they had named him Munch, because Mommy had had an Australian Shepherd once, called Chow.
Our Sister is Summer. Elisheva, the bride Looooves her, lots, and calls her Gooby Girl. Mommy used the Cartoon app for this effect.
And this is the original of Summer.
We have one more bruver there, a black cat, named Spock. Mommy liked him lots, since he is black like me. (Zoe) He is a little skittish, but he let Mommy pet him sometimes. Mommy used Pip Magic for the cool Apple effect. The app was cool, but very annoying to use and had way too many in app purchases.
This is the original if his picture.
Our bruvers and sister told us tha no sooner had Mommy’s plane landed after a 14 hour flight than she already had a pre-wedding party to go to called a Hinna. Very cool Iraqi tradition. The bride (in purple) and groom put henna, which stains, on their hands to symbolize the permance of a married life. So Mommy got a second wind to party with everyone, and do couples belly dancing through evening and eat great Middle Eastern food. Everyone wore Middle Eastern costumes. Fun, fun, fun.
And three days later, was the wedding. It was beautiful, or so everyone says. Of course, Mommy is very partial to the Bride, Elisheva, her very first granddaughter. The Dan, Groom, is pretty nice, or so Mommy says. He is an engineer. Mommy is happy with that. And they want to move to the States. Mommy is Really happy with that. The wedding was fun, too with lots of food and dancing.
So, Mommy says, and I hear the same from my bruvers and sisters, that the wedding was a wonderful time, even though it was pretty hectic. Mommy got to do some touring, even though she has been there many times and did a private tour of the Old City Of Jerusalem, Israel with her brother, who came to the wedding. The high point was going up onto the Temple Mount, which is the site of the Ancient Temple and the current site of the Dome Of The Rock. That was pretty awe inspiring.
Well, Mommy finally came home after all of that. Much too long. We missed her. But, at least she is nome now, and we are very glad. Now we have more than one human to control. It was nice talking to our bruvers and sisters in different parts of the world. Zoe got real good using email. Things are back to normal. We think we will take a snooze.

I say, that is a very long time to be away. I’d hate it if my staff did that, but family is family and sounds like fun was had by all and maybe there won’t be more marriages for a while. . Great to hear and see all your family, I bet they will be after doing selfies from now on, too!
