Bee and Cee

Beebee loves paper bags! They are the best toy you can give her. Ceecee boy has started to get into the paper bag thing as well, literally. Silly kitties!

Backtracking

Lately I just haven't been able to catch a break. If it's not one thing it's another it seems. See, I usually do my blogging from my phone, rarely logging into a computer unless I want to make a post...which as you can tell hasn't been too often lately. I didn't realize I had a few post drafts that were never published. So instead of delete them or leave them pending, here is one. It was meant for several weeks ago when we completed project privacy fence. We have been thoroughly enjoying the backyard!



Michael is so great. He spent a full day by himself putting up the fence runners while I was at work. Easily a two-person job. I guess the ol' nail gun counted as person #2. When I got home from work I was quite impressed.


Since all of the runners were up, it's time to move on to the boards. You would nail one up, move to the next and keep going and going and....going. Then you just tried not to look and see HOW many more feet of boards there were to put up. One board at a time people, one board at a time.


The finished product! Our backyard is flat then starts to slow, which made us really scared on how exactly this project was going to go. We had never built a fence before. Since this picutre the holes under the fence have filled themselves in quite nicely. Outdoor privacy from the neighbors + keeping Penny and Holly away from Miss Janice next door who is scared of dogs = sweet fence success!


While we were outside slavin' away, I came in to find Ceecee boy snoozin' away.



He's a weirdo


So to celebrate our newly found backyard freedom, Michael grilled out some delicious steaks.


We sure are enjoying every minute of it!

Cabin sweet cabin

This weekend Michael, Penny, Holly and I all went to stay in a cabin at the Lost Bay KOA in Lillian, AL. We all had a great time, and it was fantastic to find a place that allows dogs for a measly $10 pet fee. There were dogs everywhere and the girls loved it. We are already planning our next trip back next month for Michael's birthday.

Holly, excited to be going bye bye. "Are we there yet?"
Penny found the perfect spot so she could see to help us navigate our way there
Michael and our cabin, "High Tide." It was a great little cabin. Basically just a bedroom, but we grilled out so there was no need for a kitchen. Bathrooms and showers are very close by.

The cabin next door also had dogs
The girls loved looking out the little window that was just their size. Holly was looking for her new friend next door.
"Hello new friend, I see you."
More of the cabins down on Perdido Bay
We went fishing while we were there. Michael caught two croakers and I caught a catfish.
Michael and I had a blast riding around in the golf cart
But not as much fun as Holly and Penny had riding on the golf cart. They didn't miss a minute of the golf cart action.

We can't wait to go back!

Miscellaneous photos

From my phone...



The "TC" sushi roll from Three Flavors. All cooked, the only way to go for me.

Ceecee and the cone. This was after he was attacked by another cat. Poor Cee boy.

I consider my blog PG rated. This is a strawberry we grew in our garden.

Daddy, I'll just lay right here while you play guitar. K, thanks.


The girls love the wind in their hair

Wreath in progress. I ran out of glue sticks to finish, but getting more today.

This is a huge bowl! Our tomatoes we have grown as of late.

Kristen and me

Mr. Cee chillin' out

Rachel, Frank, Michael and I went floundering. Thankfully the boys gigged a few.

More to come...
