To say that our week has been "eventful" or "productive" would be a gross understatement, I think. It was a loooooooong weird week. Honestly it feels a lot like one of those dreams you have that feel very real while you are having it, and as soon as you wake up...but later on you start adding up all the weirdness and think "wow, that was a one really odd dream".
If you have driven by our house anytime in the past 2 weeks you might have found yourself thinking "What the hell are they doing?". Well, the giant posts on either side of the driveway are simply preparing to hold our gate. It wasn't until we(and by we I mean the boss) started putting in the fence posts that it really began to dawn on everyone what was going on at the little house on the left. Remember that fence I told you about a few weeks ago? Yeah, well...before this week, our house looked like this.
Now it looks like this:
I cannot begin to express our joy and excited over the idea of actually being able to USE our front yard!
Alright next up, we got another new addition to the house. A storm door! A...storm door. Yeah, that sounds so incredibly exciting and absolutely worthy of mention on the blog, right? The door turned out to be a huge pain in the ass. The boss and his dad spent about 5 hours getting the thing put on and after all was said and done, the locks didn't work and we had to call the manufacturer to get them to send us the new parts. And yes there was something wrong with the lock...piece..things. It wasn't a matter of wrong assembly :-)
Also this week...oh lets see what happened this week that I am forgetting about? Hmmm, Oh, I remember. Yes yes yes, we just went ahead and BOUGHT MY NEW CAMERA!!!!
If you know anything about me, you know how excited I am for this! It's been a long time coming and we have worked very hard to save up enough cash for this little darling! Full blog all about it surely to come on the other blog once I get it in my hands!
The kittens are getting really big. They started crawling yesterday and today, a little. As cute as they are, I will be honest with you...I am so sick of having 7 animals in my house. I'm done with the kittens. I love my cat and my rabbit but the kittens are a bit much. I have homes lined up for 3 of them so I just need to adopt out 2 of them! Keep your fingers crossed for me!
Max is good these days. He's probably the most spoiled rabbit in the history of the world.
With Cate on Spring break all week, the boss not at work all week, and all the new and exciting things going on around here, in addition to Easter tomorrow, I think I can safely say that I am 100% ready for boring old normal routine Monday morning.
I hope you all have a wonderful Easter Sunday!

I love the fence!!! I looks so nice, and I know it will give you peace of mind. It sounds like you had an eventful week. Congrats on your new baby! I'm sure you are very excited!
Thanks Mandi, it will look so much nicer once it is painted, but we are very happy to have made so much progress in just one week! The boss is such a hard worker!
I've passed by that house many times! So sweet! = )
well heck Christy, stop by sometime! I'm always home!
I'm so far behind on blogs!! The fence looks amazing, like it's always been there and it's always nice to expand the kids' safe zone....more adventures and fun!!
Congrats on the new camera!!! I can't wait to see what you produce with it!
And, finally, have we looked into mail order cats?? I'll take one! :)
Is the little stipped kitten in the picture adopted? I rode by your house on Saturday and got excited for you when I saw the fence going up. What a relief that is!
none of them are exactly spoken for Cynthia. I had one person say he wanted 2, and one person wants one but they don't care which ones as long as they are boys. There are 2 stripped ones and they are both male. I can save one for you though if you want me to!!!
