Is anyone alive out there?

To those out there who may have been following this blog (hello…?  Anyone out there…?  Mom…?), you may have thought that I’d forgotten all about it… indeed, it’s been well over a month since my last post!  But nope, I’m still here, and I thought I’d better get an update in before September is over!  (Does it seem like time is flying by for anyone else?  Whew!)

Well, as you might imagine, we have been super busy around here.  The summer has flown by in an absolute blur, and we’re now officially nearly a week into autumn.  The leaves are changing, the flowers are shriveling up, and the kids are back in school (not our kids though! - the only kids we’ve got are of the furry variety!).

And speaking of said furry children, we have a new addition to our family – one that has been keeping me so busy that I have no time for important things like updating this blog…or sleeping…or showering…(just kidding about those last two…sort of).  Her name is Juno, or Junebug, as we often fondly call her – our new siberian husky puppy.  We picked her up at the beginning of September, and she is now twelve weeks old (tomorrow), and growing like a weed (four pounds in one week!).

Junebug!

Now, it would be remiss of me to post about our new puppy, while leaving  out my two very favourite fur boys (and those who know me are probably shocked that no photos of these two have yet made it onto the blog…).  So,  without further ado, I present Alfred and Finnigan!

Well, now the gang has finally been officially introduced.  No doubt all three will be appearing in future posts, since they’re always underfoot!  In fact, Finnigan is attempting to climb across the keyboard as we speak, which at least is better than hanging himself over the back of my neck as he often prefers to do.

 

And now that I’ve made my excuses for the extended absence of new posts, I shall be doing my best to get back on track! 

 

Coming soon: the long awaited cabinet painting adventure, gate building 101, a full house and garden tour, and some fabulous and mind-blowing “before and afters”.  Well, maybe not quite mind-blowing, but pretty fabulous anyways…

 

Stay tuned!
