Peace out Bensenville...

Well, it's finally happening! Kurt, Oscar, Lyla and I will be moving to our OWN place on March 1!
It is being painted and recarpted at the moment, so I couldn't get any good pictures...but I am sure that I will be posting 500 of them!

I.can't.wait.

Doggie Birthday Party and more...

It feels like it has been forever since I posted anything, and I am having trouble remembering all that has gone on in that time period. I know that we have been really busy, but mostly with boring things that are totally non-blogworthy.

We have sucessfully filed our taxes in the last week for the first time as a married couple (we were only married 2 months in 2009, so we filed seperate,) given the dogs baths, I've worked 40+ hours while poor Kurt has been layed off. He has done SO many household projects with his spare time though, including 3 million loads of laundry, installing his mother's new computer, fixing the garage door that I broke, and more.

We did get out for a little bit of fun last weekend though. Our friend, Patti, who watches the dogs while we are away, had a birthday shindig for Oscar, her oldest of 7 doxies. He turned 17 on the 13th! She even ordered a little doggie cake and everything! Here are a few pics...

Snowly Cow!

17 inches of snow, 6 foot drifts, 60 mile-an-hour winds, 2 hour commutes (to go 7 miles!) dogs who refuse to go pee outside...awesome
