Nuk

We welcomed our newest and final family member today. She is a 4 year old rabbit named Nuk. Nuk was named after the pacifier by the ladies daughter. Her daughter is five. We had a lot of fun picking up the rabbit. Originally we went to just check out the rabbit and my boys turned it into a play date. The children were very nice and they all played for @ 45 minutes. Right now we have her in a dog/cat cage, but I have plans to make her a more permanent home. The boys want to try having her inside. We will have to see how she does around the cats. They have not seen each other yet.

Sweet Pea

Look at how big the hamsters cheeks are! Instead of eating the lettuce I gave him, he nibbled on it and then stored the rest for later. His head is tripple the normal size due to the food in his cheeks. LOL!!

The New Jeep

Good bye Barbie Jeep and hello Army Jeep!! After a new paint job the old Migliore Jeep has become the new Cravey military vehicle. The boys are very excited about the new look and we have installed a new battery to give it some added power for our hilly back yard. Andrew says that it goes at least 4 MPH with the new battery. The boys have a new camo outfit that I just found them. This combined with a jacket from Mr. Jason and pants from mom and they are ready to play Army. Here are pictures from their test drive after the new paint job and instillation of the new battery.

Rice Art

Who knew you could have this much fun with left over rice? Here are our creations.

Beta

Our new fish has both my sons favorite colors in one fish. This is what he looks like after he saw himself in a mirror.

PUPPIES!!!!

We visited Jennifer's puppies the other day. Boy are they cute!

Mooooooo!

We had fun at cow appreciation day at Chick-fil-la yesterday. This year we roped Phillip into joining us in dressing up and being goofy. MMMmoooooooo!

Tadpole update(Tick also)

Well... the tadpoles are still doing well. They are looking healthy. Will take pictures later today.

I am very thankful that Andrew is almost 7. I felt something on my head this morning and he pulled a tick out of my head for me. EEWwwuuuu!

Treasured Towels

You know your cat is big when...

your children post caution cones around him when he "parks". It's just like what the firemen do when they park their truck. LOL!

What is in the water?

Is this a picture taken off the coast of Florida? Are those sharks?! No it's tadpoles. We are critter sitting for the Reed family. I promised to try my best and keep them alive. We have had them for almost 24 hours now and they appear fine. Woohoo!!

Canoe Trip

We went to the park yesterday and had what we hope to be one of many canoe trips. We explored a little more of Swift Creek and saw some wild life. It was supposed to rain Saturday and Sunday. Saturday we waited around and did other things since it was supposed to rain. No rain until late. We decided to go on Sunday and got set up. We had to come home after church, but stopped and picked up a picnic lunch of sub sandwiches on the way to the park. I think having to wait a day made us appreciate the trip even more. I hope to go camping/canoeing soon. It would be a lotof fun.

Fourth of July Parade

The boys have been looking forward to the annual July 4th parade. It is our first year participating in it and was loads of fun.

Wonderful freind and a cutie too.

We did it this week. We said "see you later" to our good friends the Migliores. We feel very blessed to have met them and enjoyed the time that we were together. Now we all get to be cyber buddies. It will be very hard for my boys not to see them. Laura and I have told my boys that you just never know what will happen. Our family is looking forward to keeping in touch and learning all about Okinawa. Here are some pictures of some of our last activities with the girls.
