6 hours down...

Tonight I finished my first 6 hours of graduate school. For those who didn't know, I have gone back to get a Masters of Library Science - so that I can become a school librarian. For the past 4 weeks I have been taking 2 classes and I have been very busy. I turned in one final this afternoon and had a final presentation this evening. Now I can begin my summer vacation!!! :)

Potter's Surgery



A week ago, Potter had to have emergency surgery to remove stuffing from his stomach and intestines. Let's say it was a whole stuffed animal. At one point he had an oxygen tube up his nose. He spent a week at the vet's (if you would like to contribute to Potter's medical bills fund, please make checks out to: How much did it cost? J/K) and was able to come home last Thursday. Yesterday he had his stitches removed and is slowly gaining weight back.

The finished product...

After all of that hard work... here are the finished products. He also built the trellis in the middle.

Mark's Fruit Carts




Mark has spent the past 3 days building 2 fruit carts... okay, they are really plant stands. When we were in Minnesota we bought a lot of new plants and since we didn't have any room to plant them in the flower beds, Mark decided to build plant stands.
