Light at the end of the tunnel

Today, they got all of the corners and low spots, tomorrow they will be rolling all of the walls. I can't wait to see it all done! Thursday, all of our molding will be installed. Friday they will be doing touch ups.

A science experiment?

The painters started yesterday and covered all of the furniture downstairs. Duke and Roscoe were most unhappy to be left outside until almost bedtime. Once they were in, they were confined to the upstairs so they couldn't rip the plastic.

Spike

On Sunday, Carrie, Edgar and Allyson came up for awhile so Edgar could help Jason move furniture out of the way for the painters. Allyson enjoyed the bulldog stuffed animal we got her and named "Spike." We found Spike at IKEA and that he looked like a lot of fun. He kept her quite entertained.

Watch out for flying monkeys!

We went to PetSmart tonight to get the dogs more Breath Busters and Roscoe's favorite monkey toy was on sale so we bought two. I snagged a hedgehog for Fonz out of my spare toys basket. Everyone was SO happy to get new toys. Surprisingly, it's been over an hour and the monkey squeakers are still alive.

Thank you Aunt Holly!

My Aunt Holly bought Fonzie a camo coat so he could go hunting with Dad. I told her that would never happen since he would have to get up early, get wet and be out in the cold. I finally got a chance to try it on him and he looked so cute. He actually wasn't too bent about having to play dress up.

It's been a bad week

It's been a long week. I got an ingrown toenail removed on Monday after work. It wasn't too bad actually until I woke up Tuesday morning and I had somehow completely thrown my back out. I could barely get out of bed but made myself do it. Spring Break is a busy time for us school district folks!

I woke up this morning and Fonzie was limping. I thought he might have strained something. I came home early to lay on an ice pack because my back was killing me. He was limping even worse. I couldn't find anything wrong until I looked closely at his paw. He had some type of weird pimply thing in between the pads on his paws. I took him to the vet late this afternoon and they couldn't figure out what it was.

Jason decided to take matters into our own hands. The pimply thing has been popped and drained. His paw is all wrapped up and Fonzie is resting comfortably.

Happy Birthday Jeremy!

We went to Rainier last weekend to celebrate Jeremy's birthday. I got to spend lots of time with our nieces and nephews. We made them watch The Muppet Movie. Alexa was pretty into but Bryce wanted to watch cars. The dogs had fun playing together too, Ally and Dakota were down too, it was like wild kingdom!
