Why have kids when I already have one?

We have often come home to a mess that Timber makes while we are gone. But who can blame her? She may be home by herself for 8 hours ... what would you do? She usually finds things in the trash to drag out, but we have discovered that she can jump straight onto our table which is next to the counter. We try not to leave food up there but neither of us really loves to do the dishes. So I came home and found this wonderful mess. She found last nights Teriyaki chicken and sauce in a bowl. So after vigorously licking the bowl she knocked it off the counter, which it then proceeded to shatter. So after mopping and sweeping several times , I thought I got the mess up but that sauce is very sticky and I have since gotten more that 3 different shards in my foot. All that to say... she is lucky she is cute.

I am hammer, hear me roar

First and foremost we got new fish! We went in looking for a single fish but I then gave David the go ahead to get 3 and I must say I have never seen his face light up like that. So we now have 4 (kinda 5). 1 is living beneath the aquarium and we discovered Pinchy the crabs carcass underneath the rocks.
This is Magarnigal Mindy

and Ralph (he is my favorite... dont tell the others)

Davids parents were up here for a little over a week. One day we drove the 1 through Canada, It was a long drive but super pretty, we saw lots of cool old churches

We also went to Orcas Island. This is Timber on top of the world.
