Kula got some new all-terrain booties, a travel water pouch, and a hiking pack. We’ll send you a picture from our first hike but she’s breaking in her new shoes right now. These booties are soooo cute.
The lime chaser
Kula was following Henrik’s every move around the house (as usual) and when he picked up a lime from the kitchen counter she acted quite interested. Well, Kula is afraid of balls, squeaky toys, vacuums, cameras, a variety of noises, and even her own farts. To show Kula the lime wasn’t anything she was interested in, Henrik rolled it across the carpet and to his surprise — Kula chased it! She never chases anything but she likes to chase limes. Go figure.

The wedding was just great
Oh, our wedding. It’s been almost two months. Seems like longer, sometimes. What a fun party. Well I thought so anyway. Good food, good drinks, good people, good services. Just everything was so nice and we felt so blessed about the whole thing. Henrik looked absolutely breathtaking. I just couldn’t get over how wonderful he looked in his tuxedo. I could go on and on about that day but who wants to hear that?! Just know that we’ve decided that every five years we’re going to have another catered celebration with friends and family.
Squirrel on the wall
I left the door open and this squirrel came in freaked out. It wasn’t one of our usual squirrels and when I tried to give it a peanut it climbed the dining room wall. I had no idea a squirrel could scale a flat wall. Hmm…thinking when this one ran back outside it never came back.
Critters eat better than we do
The birds and squirrels have been eating us out of house and home. Henrik fills the bird feeder every single day. The suet goes in two or three days. We’re trying to attract as many varieties as we can but so far as have hummingbirds, finches, starlings, crows, stellar jays, flickers, and probably other birds I don’t know the names of. We have some regular squirrels, too. They sit on the flower pots and lawn furniture and window sills and work their clairvoyance until we feed them. And we found some food that the dog and cat REALLY like. It’s called Evo and it’s made by Innova. And it ain’t cheap. But Henrik said, “We can eat beans and rice every day so they can get the good food.” Well, we’re not eating beans and rice EVERY day but we’re getting short drips at Tully’s now instead of the chais and lattes. I’m telling you, the critters got it good at our house.
