The Destruction Crew

I mentioned them the other day, they are going to be a huge part of our lives for awhile so you may hear me complaining about them a lot. We live in the mountains, in the middle of nowhere and have always had our peace. That is what we love about living here, it is why we are willing to drive an hour to get to anything. We are afraid our peace may be gone now and for good. They are drilling 2 gas wells in the mountain to the side of our house, they will be finished and gone in a month but that is just the beginning. We live in the middle of nowhere (or did I mention that already) so entertainment is hard to come by and we are figuring we may be living next to the newest form of entertainment soon.  It will be a terrific place to ride four wheelers and go "mudding" and I'm sure a great hang-out. Hopefully they will gate it off, that will be our only salvation.  We want to keep our peace, we love our peace. We want our boys to be able to play in the mountains around the house and not have to worry about it. Really, I just want to keep my peace, Please.

What a difference a day can make.

This use to be all mountain. Now it's a mess.

MRI's, Kittens and Bears! Oh My!!

Have a few different things to mention so where to start….. Audrey made it through her MRI with flying colors. They did have to redo the last set because her knee started twitching but that was no big deal. She did really well, way better than I thought she would considering how nervous she was. Now we just have to wait to hear the results from the surgeon next week. I've quit worrying about it and left it all up to God. What will be, will be.
On to other things….Apparently we had a bear last night, the first sighting of the season. He tried his best to get inside the Blazer, not sure why though because it has been setting there for months in need of being fixed (now that's a whole other story). The picture is not great; if you actually see it you can see where he pushed his nose up against the glass.

A short update on the kittens too. They are getting so big and are all over the place. Most of them are using the litter box already and a few are starting to try to eat. It's going to be hard to get rid of any of them let along all of them. Mike says though (and anyone who knows us well will know what a big deal this is) that HE is getting ME a dog. I am by heart a dog person, I love them and would love to have one now that all the kids will be in school but……. I CANNOT house train a dog. I have tried so many times and it never works for me. My guess would be that it is my laziness but I'm hoping that if he gets the dog for me that I will try a little harder. We'll see I guess, if he even gets it lol.
