Lady & Sly

So, after our horrible situation with the other kittens, we decided to get some new ones. (For those that don't know - one of them was accidentally run over in the garage, and a few days later, the lady who we adopted them from, lied to us about coming to give the other kitten her shots, and ended up taking her away from us. After much deliberation, we decided not to press charges because of the unfairness to the boys, and the cost.) A lady that Brandon works with has a brother whose cat had kittens not too long ago, and they agreed we could have two of them.

So, a week ago, we brought them home. We've named them Lady & Sly. Lady is the gray one, and Sly is the black one. Brandon built them a house, and the boys helped us paint it. I'm going to stencil their names on the front of the house for them. They're very happy living outside, although they do spend a lot of time inside with us, too. We're thoroughly enjoying them, although every time we can't find them, I freak out. We don't have collars on them yet - odd, isn't it, that every pet organization stresses that they need collars and identification, yet you can't find collars that will fit kittens??? Anyway, they're doing well, and are well loved! Enjoy the pictures!

Lady sleeping - she loves our bed, by the way

Gavin loving the kitties

Now, I said that I'd post a picture of Gavin and his new puppy Jackson - we got him on our Yellowstone trip for Gavin's birthday, and he just loves him to death. He sleeps with him every night, and always says, "I lub Jackson. Jackson bery, bery nice!" So, here's Gavin with his b-day presents.

And, a just because picture. Here's Gavin in his apron (he helped me make dinner), his puppy backpack that we used to clip him to us during our Lagoon trip, and my sandals! He's goofy!

Also, I'm still trying to figure out how to attach a slide show of our Yellowstone pictures, so if anyone can help me out, please do! :)
