It's a very rainy day here so it's kind of a lazy day. That's nice every once in a while! Sam and Mogley are just chilling out watching tv today and I'm just cleaning and doing laundry and taking LOTS of breaks in between!! :)
We were gonna get a little tiny kitten this past week. This thing was absolutely adorable!! He is black and white so we named him Oreo. Cutest little kitten but we were laying in bed talking on Thursday night, the night before we were gonna bring him home, and Sam told me that he really really REALLY does not want to get this kitten! Now, for those of you who know Sam...he is very very laid back. He does not give his opinion very often! (of course....I give mine enough for the both of us! lol!! Not good!) He told me he hates cats and while Oreo will be cute for a few months, he will turn into a big cat and lets just face it...cats are not very lovey lovey!! They want you to feed them and change their litter box and leave them alone!! He had a good point and I really don't think it's wise to argue over something so silly so I was a good wifey and gave in!! lol! So we almost got a cat!! Maybe we'll get another dog instead. We really want to get a little playmate for Mogley so we'll see!!
Fire company is going great! We had auto extracation drill last Monday night and it was alot of fun. We used the jaws of life which I had never seen before so that was neat. It was alot to learn but very very interesting! While we were cutting the car, a SNAKE crawled out of it!! Ahhhh!!! I tried very hard to compose myself cause I'm a firefighter...I'm supposed to be tough! lol!! So as discreetly as possible I went over to our tool area and grabbed a big axe and carried it with me so I could take care of the snake if he decided to mess with me!! That didn't last long cause that axe was heavy but it was funny!
Anyway. Gonna sign off for now. Hope everyone has a good rest of the weekend!

Hi everyone! I just sat down at the library to update on here and about a million little kids just came swarming in! Okay maybe not quite a million but at least a thousand!!! :) They are so cute though! So if this post doesn't make sense...it's cause I'm very distracted! (it's so obvious I don't have kids right?! lol)
Anyway...nothing much new going on around here. Job is going good. Wish I could get a few more hours cause I love working over in our Clarence store. It's a whole different world over there. So enjoyable! Plus bonus...Sam comes to visit me every day when he gets out of work since it's right on his way home! So that is definitely a major added bonus! :) Definitely brightens the workday! Sam is doing great as well. Keeping busy with his job plus now that the weather is nice his detailing business is really picking up which is so exciting. It's something that he really enjoys doing...it's very relaxing to him and bonus...he makes money doing it so that's nice! Last weekend he detailed our landlords vehicle. It's an old classic car and he made it sparkle. Looks brand new! So he parked it in their driveway and the neighbor (who we have never met before then) came out and couldn't get over how nice the car looks. So he asked Sam to detail his vehicles for him. So the next morning Sam did one of the man's cars. The guy was very pleased and asked if Sam would do his other vehicle next weekend. So that is a huge blessing!
Things at the fire hall are going great. We had a training excercise last night as we do every Monday night. We practiced "search & rescue" in an old abandoned house. It was alot of fun. I was the "victim" each scenario. I had to go find a place to hide and pretend I was an unconcious firemen. They had to find me and drag me out of the house. I got dragged around like a rag doll and I couldn't stop giggling cause it was so much fun!
Let's see what else...we've got a couple new babies joining the Burkhardt family this year which is so exciting. My brother Ben and his wife Claire are expecting their first baby probably in the next few weeks so we are excited about that. And my brother Aaron & his wife are expecting their 3rd baby in December and let me just say...they make some cute babies!! :) So by Christmas we'll have 2 new Burkhardt's! Very exciting! :) Hopefully Sam and I will join the baby club at some point! Seems like it's never gonna happen but hopefully sometime it will. We aren't getting younger...that's for sure! :)
Hope everyone is doing well. Enjoy the lovely weather!! :)
