updates on the house

Updates on our old little home:

One night during a storm Michael and I woke up to an incredibly loud crazy noise and we both thought Gwinna's crib had gone to pieces! Nope...just a tree falling on our house! No big deal.

 (It actually was not a big deal we called our lovely landlord and he took care of it;) 

About 4 weeks ago Gwinna and I were watching a movie (probably a silly netflix Christmas one) and we heard a dripping noise. Outside? No...right in our living room!  Michael was taking a bath and I realized that it was about where the tub would be...the ceiling is beginning to crack and water is coming through, hence the bowls above that I raced to get. 

A few other numbers for you...

7 the number of centipedes I've squished in my life. (all in this house)

4 number of wolf spiders down

34,650 the approximate number of box elder bugs we have hugged too tightly

1 MOUSE IN THE HOUSE (too many)

Despite all of these creatures wanting to room with us we still love our home. 

It is cozy and warm.

We have a driveway and yards to play in. 

AND our landlord recently agreed to let me paint our kitchen!!!!!!
