New Greenhouse in Progress! Yay! New Outside Structure for Rabbits! Yay! Kittens Are So Cute!


 The footings are in.  Thank you, thank you, thank you, Steve.  Lots of hard work put in to this structure so far.

 South side of the garage.
 Foundation.
 Very nice. Thank you Steve. :D
 Next to figure out the best way for the floor so we can keep heating flowing through. :)

 Sarah helping put dirt in the new outside structure for the rabbits. One scoop at a time. :D
 Those pig tails were made by Steve. Super cute.
 Inside, wire down first, then dirt, then hay.
 We just bred the rabbits so we should have babies that are ready by Christmas!! :D

 Cute kittens playing in the leaves. :D
That is Mr. Spot.

 Happy Birthday Maggie Mae!!
 Maggie wanted cupcakes with chocolate dirt and gummy worms coming out. Hahaha!!  I think they came out pretty well. She said everyone liked them in her class.
Maggie waiting for her apple pie I made for her.  Yum!!
 Maggie invited George and his wife Joyce to the party. That was so nice of them to come over. :)

 Sarah, can we get on with this please. lol
 Maggie and her pretty ponies she got from Steve.  More ponies to add to the collection. 😛
