Chickens and Great Fall Days

It's the great Pumpkin Charlie Brown.

Chicken Coop...after eyeing the one at the pumpkin patch, we came home to create our own.

The Green Belt Bike-a-thon

Fall is beautiful around here. We've been on the bikes, the Green Belt is awesome...30 miles of paved trail along the river. The pumpkins are out in full force and Mike has cleaned out the chicken coop for Spring. Love to all and miss you bunches- MC

This is for Ethan! We love the ZOO!

Zoo Boise Rocks!

The Giraffes are beautiful . We spent a glorious Saturday morning at Zoo Boise with our freinds Emily and Jay and their two awesome kids Nickolay and Alexi. They have cool names. We really missed our buddy Ethan Lien and thought of him the entire time (of course we missed Emma and Eliott too.)











Have you ever
heard of a bear sloth?
They have awesome
feet.

I love these little penguins

We are really cracking up. Get it... Love to all. M and C

Thanks Lisa for the beautiful pin!

Mom I'll be using my new gloves!

We can dine under our new skylights, two of them!

Our Shrek tree made a mess. Poor fella.
We came home late last night and knew a branch was in the driveway. We went to bed with no power or heat and it was snowing...In the morning we found out we had a new skylight! We still have no idea what happened.

Le Weekend...

Mike and his Hose

My five dollar tables. I think they look great after a little paint. I did our coffee table and a little yellow sewing table. We were sweating in the desert sun as our neighbor swam furiously in her new pool. No invitation.

We have been staying put to work on fun projects. The extent of our travels have been down the road to garage sales. I have finished "furnishing" my classroom (blog to come) and am now working on the house. It should be a small task as my classroom is slightly larger than our house! I couldn't love our cottage more. I think Mike really loves it too... he has been busy watering his driveway (long story) between working on his master's as Boise State and building schools around town. We miss everyone very much.
