...was a lot of work! Yes, we are almost comepletely moved!! Yeah!! Wow, this month is flying by so fast!! So I have a lot to show and tell you. We just got internet put in today, so I have a good excuse for not getting any pictures on here. So much has happened since I was on here last. I hardly know where to begin! Anyway, I'll start out with this little post and fill you in with more later.
First of all Pet Care 4 U is closed for good! Did I just hear a sigh of relief? Haha I think we were all a little tired of the job! Even though it served us well for over 6 years, it was time to move on.
Taking all the kennels down...
I might have already told you this, but since I don't remember and I'm to lazy to go look back in my earlier posts, I'll just tell you anyways. We met this really sweet family a couple months back. They moved in 10 minutes from us and the oldest girl took over the business of caring for the dogs. She bought most of the kennels from us. I was very happy to have someone to refer our customers too!! The Lord worked it all out perfectly!
The greenhouse was another big job to take down!
The boys took all the siding off and the Dad helped them take it apart.
Jubilee was trying to help too. :)
And then there was the volley ball net posts that we couldn't leave behind!
We kept busy with packing most of our things and then we had to do somethings to the house before we could move in. I'll posts more pictures later, so be sure to come back!
I am here to announce that it's the new year everyone!! Ok, you already knew, but the realization is just now starting to sink in. The last dogs went home on Wednesday morning and we are all relaxing under none of the past responsibilities! :) I have to say, we are kinda enjoying it! Micah and Jenny have finished moving to the new place and we are excited to announce that it won't be long till we are moving as well! :)
We have been having very cold nights, getting down in the teens. One morning we woke up with a layer of snow on the ground. It wasn't much, but at least it snowed! :) The sky was already clear and the snow melted almost by lunch, except for the parts in the shade stayed with us for a few days.
Oops, I think I got my shadow in there! :/
The boys having a snowball fight.
Poppy also was enjoying it!
The boys built a cute little snowman.

Mount Lemmon
We went up to Mount Lemmon last Sunday to see if we could get some sledding in. Sadly it seemed like the entire Tucson population decided to do the same thing! All the good sledding places were swarming with people, so we hiked in off the road a ways and made our own trail.
After we spent some time covering up some logs, we had a pretty nice little trail.
The only problem was it was a bit steep and a log crossed over the trail at the very bottom.
We piled up snow on one side, which sent us sailing every time we got to the bottom.
As you can tell here, it didn't always feel the best lol.
Despite the bump we gritted our teeth and had an awesome time!
Jubilee loved all the snow. When she heard that we were going sledding she says, "I want to go snowing!" :)
And this was our amazing day ,
...all piled at the bottom of the slope laughing, groaning and wondering if we should take another wing at it!
I know I just posted pictures of Jubilee with Pumpkin Pie, but I had to share this adorable picture!! Pumpkin Pie laid an egg for the first time yesterday. Jubilee was so excited! She comes running to tell me about it and she says, "Pumpkin Pie laid an egg just like the big hens!" Her smile was priceless. She held that egg forever as though she was scared that it would disappear if she let it down. I know what she will be having for breakfast one of these mornings! ;)
And then I found these pictures on my camera that are clearer then the ones I put on from my phone. Enjoy!
