Photo A Day 5.1.2011 - Shed Be Gone!!

So I attempted to tear down this shed solo this morning when Rob and Jesse were at work. I have learned that a 5'2" girl that hasn't been lifting weights is not able to lift a 3 foot sledge hammer over her head to know down a shed 7 feet tall..... so I cleaned out the inside and waited for the men folk to come home to help. Rob and Jesse had most of it down by 3 and then some other guys from Rob's work came over and helped tear down the rest in about 2 hours. We paid them all with beer and BBQ! It was very yummy and nice to have the shed taken care of so that some day we could finish the fence!

Ok. I have been going to the gym every day early in the morning and today I packed my bag before I left instead of the night before like usual.... the result was two left flip flops....good thing I had my work out shoes to use instead!

Some how I scrapped both of my elbows.... I have NO idea how this happened, but it is right on the part of my elbow where I put weight when I lean on them.... not deadly, just irritating....

Photo A Day 4.26.2011 - Found A Stray.....

We found this beautiful pooch wandering around Terrytown when we were headed to the ferry to go across the river. Of course I can't just let him continue to wander. So we picked him up and called his owners.... they didn't answer so we took him home.

Rob and Jesse gave him a much needed bath with some flea and tick shampoo. Poor pup was completely covered with fleas and had at least 5 ticks. Very sad.

After his bath we took him and Cassie to the park to play. They played so good together!!! I really wanted to keep the dog due to the condition he was in, but since we had already called the owner we couldn't really pretend that we didn't know who's dog he was and when the owners called us back we had to return him. Rob and I still keep our eyes open for him and have decided that if he gets out again we will be keeping him.

Photo A Day 4.25.2011 - Rob's first Easter in a VERY long time!!

Rob and I celebrated our first Easter together this year. The only rule was that the baskets have to be useful and fun. No just going and buying a basket and filling it with stuff. I like this tradition because it really makes you think about something that the other person wants instead of just going on auto pilot to fill an Easter basket. OH. there was one other rule.... not plastic grass in the baskets because the kitties will eat it. So grass has to be paper and easily digestible. Here are the awesome baskets that we put together for each other and a friend, Jesse, who was staying with us. Rob did AMAZING!!!
