Visiting with Mia and Cadence!

Cadence and Mia

This weekend we had Scott's sister Christie and her family staying with us. Mia and Cadence are our nieces . They are 21 months and 4 yrs old respectively . They had lots of fun running around our house, following Berkley around, and playing on our stairs. Playing on the stairs was definitely the theme of the weekend. Here are some cute pictures from their visit.

The Beautiful Weekend!

We have really enjoyed the nice weather the past couple of days. Berkley is recovering from surgery and decided to spend some quality time relaxing on the deck. Her leg is about 85% back to normal and she is moving around much better. Hopefully in the next 2 weeks it will be back to nearly 100%.

The dry warm weather gave us some days to get the yard final graded. The bulldozer worked all day on Friday and most of Saturday smoothing out our yard. Hopefully we will get grass planted this week and start the long process of growing a yard. It is amazing how much better it looks compared to before the grading. It actually looking like a yard not a construction site.

Weekend of Recovery

Berkley had surgery Thursday to repair her ACL on her back left leg. She had her right ACL repaired a couple of years ago. The recovery is going slow and she has spent most of the weekend laying around. After this surgery, she didn't get a cute hot pink bandage like last time. Friday night was a little rough and she was in a lot of pain. But after some pain meds and a good night of sleep, Berkley was feeling much better and starting to touch that paw to the ground. We are hoping for a quick and complete recovery.

The Easter bunny did bring Berkley a new Suspicious Chickie. Her Chickie has always been one of her favorite toys. The picture below shows a comparison of her old Chickie to her new Chickie. See how much Berkley loved the old Chickie. He doesn't even have any stuffing left.
