Getting Along!

Bandit, Caspian and Bella are getting along better each day. It's been fun seeing their personalities grow.

A few more cute pictures of our kittys!

Pantry Door is In!!!

Wow, I can't believe the pantry door is installed as well as the shelves.  That was a process texturing the walls in the pantry, priming, and finally painting.  The pantry door was stained and now we need to texture, prime and paint the outside area of the pantry.  We still have the toe boards to install at the base of the cabinets and the tile inside the bottom of the cabinet.  But, we are practically finished and it's been just about one year!!!

Remember, the cabinets landed in our garage last Feb.  What a year it's been!  My dining room table is finally cleared off as everything is back in it's place!  We are now able to enjoy our dining room once again!  What a treat!  When our kitchen is "competely" finished, we will host an open house!  That will be the true glory day for me in celebrating a huge completion to our most challenging upgrade.

Brooke turns 7!!

Brooke fell fast asleep to the purring Bella. How sweet they are!!!

We have had our new kitty's for one week exactly and are enjoying them completely!  Bandit, our dog, and our kittys are getting to know each other.  So far, so good.   They are sticking to scratching  the post at this time!

Brooke just had her 7th birthday party! It was a blast!

It's Kitty City!!!

Meet Prince Caspian and Princess Belle!  Caspian is the black one and Belle is the colored one.  They are brother and sister who came from an unexpected litter our friends encountered.  We wanted siblings to keep themselves company, especially when they will be outside.  They'll eventually live in our garage with a cat door only they can access.  We'll have frequent visits in our home but this is the lifestyle we have choosen.

Bandit does not know what to think, expect he's had visitors in our home before and as the demeanor to adjust well.  The kids still can't believe they each have a kitty and Daddy is the hero in all of this.

Brooke's First Cheerleading competition

Our new driveway . . . and other landscape to come . . .

Our driveway will be sealed next week and we can drive on it then. Also, we'll put a new sprinkler system and sod plus other plants in the spring.
