SETTLING INTO THE LOG CABIN



Here is a photo of Amy and Twinkie -- watching movies together. Although there has been freezing rain and we have 3 foot trenches all over the property (waiting for electric and plumbing conduits), we are settling in at Canyon Lake. The girls sure like their new school! Sean finds the commute to the Zoo a cinch -- so long as he leaves before 6:00 A.M. (ouch)!

MOVING DAY - JAN. 7th


We were just exhausted by the end of Moving Day, but the kiddos got up for their first day at their new school cheery as chipmunks!

MOVING THE TRAILER - JAN. 5th


Here is Karen happy to finally see her kennel office arrive! We're calling it "Mellow Yellow" -- but the kennel office was easier to find and buy than it was to move up to our 14 acres!

Many thanks to Cleve & Eva for keeping Mellow Yellow in such good shape when they lived there!
Thanks to Daryl & Tina and their whole crew for rolling, measuring, delivery and all the heavy lifting. Thanks to Kevin (+ his kiddos) for creative driving of the blue tractor. Thanks to Patrick and Paul from Countryside for site prep and gravel road base. Thanks to Walter the electrician & the tall dark and handsome plumber who arrived this morning to hook up the trailer's bathroom. (Amen.)

We could not have done any of this without you!

NEW YEAR'S EVE @ THE CABIN


WELCOME HOME!



We spent 3 nights at the cabin over New Year's. It was a little chilly, but fun! We unpacked the kitchen and watched some movies since the satellite TV isn't hooked up yet. Our new electric fireplace sure is toasty!
