Oh the Whore-or

Last night was quite the night for one devious little kitty. This is a kitten straight from the country, she loves to be outside running around and climbing trees. Yesterday she had enough outdoor action to last her a lifetime.


I got home later in the evening and found Bean outside playing all by her lone-some....so I thought. I tried to get her to come in the house only to be awarded by clawing and an attempt to bite. So in I went and out Bean stayed. No sooner had I entered the house and I remembered the road and the coyotes that had been howling every night and went back out to rescue her. I went out and discovered she was in the company of another cat. I could hear them but I couldn't see them. Great!


Never being a cat owner before I started bombarding Justin and our neighbor Dan with questions (which I answered  to put myself at ease...)


Do you think the coyotes will get her? (I bet she is faster than the coyotes.)
What about a car? (Well its late no cars will come down the road)
Do you think she will get fleas? Rabies? (No its too cold)
Do you think she will get knocked up? (No, she is too young)
What are the signs that she is in heat? to which they replied cats start getting really vocal and anxious, they start acting all crazy.....(just like Bean has lately!....!*$#)

Bean stayed out all night and all morning because she was no where to be found. I had NIGHTMARES all night. Nightmares that I was being taken over by Cats and Kittens. Nightmares that I was being taken over by Kittens and Cats and Coyotes. Nightmares that Bean was going to be a mom. Nightmares that Bean was going to have the biggest litter in world history and Justin was going to want to keep them...ALL!


When Justin went out this morning he found her huddled in the barn shivering...He brought her in and she slept all day long, she barely moved....She looked just like this...

Like she had a rough night....




I have failed as a health teacher....my own kitten is more than likely knocked up. Place your orders now folks the buns will be ready in about 4 months...

A Little Friday Night Date

We ran out of apple-wood to burn for the rest of the winter, so that meant we had to get out and get movin to get us through Feb, March, and the beginning of April. Justin's father gave us a load of logs that we only had to cut and split....so we made it into a little date night!

Justin running the splitter

Dad- you may want to make sure that you are sitting down for these next pictures. They will probably shock and astonish you.

I ran the wood splitter!!!!

And loaded the wood...

And touched the worms crawling inside of the rotten wood.

Can you believe it dad?? Not really the same girl that used to cry when it was time to move firewood piles growing up. 

It was a very successful work date no tears were shed, we have all of our fingers, hands, legs, and toes...only missing one pair of sunglasses and that is a sad story on its own ;(

He is so great!

Happy Birthday


To my handsome....



Wonderful....



Smart....




Loving....


Boyfriend

Hope you have the most terrific day today and always, I LOVE YOU!

Puppy love

What do you do for a puppy that just doesn't have enough hair to keep him warm?


Well you grab an old sweatshirt, make him a coat, send him outside, and save yourself $40.


Too cute not to post!

P.s. This was a great success because Stu was able to do "his business" and not hit the coat. Ahh its the little things that count the most!!!

Little Victories

We had to replace our water heater this weekend, boooo. But, it is bigger and better than our old one so heres to the next twelve years of hot water.

We also finished our oudoor wood boiler project this weekend! FINALLY we (mainly Justin sorry hunny) had been working on this for the last 5 months! We were so excited to be done that we celebrated with a nice date night!

Two Happy Brides

I am lucky enough to have two sisters getting married this year woot woot!! Couldn't ask for more happiness for more wonderful people. I was honored to be asked to be in both weddings so we spent the past few weekends looking for bridal gowns SOO fun! I of course tried on dresses looking like this...then proceeded to ask if I could wear my cowgirl boots down the isle. Kimmie said no.



Will these be the dresses? I don't know yet.


Cowgirl boots make me a happy girl! This dress, not so much!


Just a little preview of this little love in her dress H-a-p-p-y, am I right! Of course I can't show you the whole thing. Thats a surprise for the big day!

Kimberly and Jason will be married July 16, 2011! Can't wait!
