Just a glimpse of our home!

To all of you who might be interested in what has been going on between the four walls of the Holcomb house. Get ready this may be a bumpy ride.

My family has had many additions to it this past year. I hear the gasp, no I have not been secretly pregnant nor did we adopt any children without anyone knowing...lol... Phillip and I are very happy with the two WONDERFUL children that GOD has blessed us with... The additions however have came to us in the form of PETS... yes I did say pet with an "s". This past year I must have been completely insane because I allowed my children to spend their chore money on WHATEVER they chose...(attention parents: there should be a contract on the useage of chore money... read carefully and you will see why) The chore money story begins with three characters
1. My sister Leeanne
2. My son Preston
3. My neice Anna
more characters come in later... let us begin
ok picture this... my sister and her daughter and my son go the our local pet store. my phone rings... i hear my sisters voice saying preston wants to spend his money on a rabbit.. i say ok thats fine... so about an hour later my son comes in with a small baby rabbit... two hours later my daughter gets off the bus and she comes in and preston shows off his new prize... great now mish wants to spend her money on a pet and right away i realize that i should have put limits on the chore money. so off goes leeanne, anna, preston, and mish to the pet store... an hour later, they traveling side show returns with... another rabbit... so now i have two rabbits... but keep in mind i NEVER remembered to put limits on the money and my children have chore money due them EVERY week. That evening i realize hmmm nobody spent their money on a cage... so i keep the rabbits in a tote in the kids bathroom overnight. The rabbits are so cute and cuddly and sweet but then i realize by searching the internet that hmmm they are a "special" breed of rabbits that have to stay between 60-75 degrees or they die. Now i know that some of you are thinking there is the answer to your rabbit problems... put them out and let nature take its course. Well i could not do that so off we go the next day to walmart to find a cage for them. Well i end up buyin a kennel type thing, you know the one for a HUGE dog. So we get home and phillip and i put it together and put the adorable little rabbits in there "together". There our rabbit problem resolved... HA... well a smart parent would have taken their chore money to pay for the $40 kennel but oh well let us continue. One IMPORTANT fact that i forgot to mention is that my neice has gotten a hampster in the midst of all this rabbitry. So now we are 2 parents, 2 children, and 2 rabbits, because like noah my family has to be balanced. Now about a week or so rocks on and now its another trip to the pet store to get food for the rabbits and my sister's hampster... Ring ring ring... my sisters voice... preston wants to spend his money on a hampster. (hmm well seeing hows i didnt put the limits on the money) was the thought ran threw my mind as I hear my voice speaking i suppose but go ahead and get the cage and get mish one bright idea huh?... we will use the same cage... HA... Those of you who know me, know that NOTHING in my life is simple...by the time the hampsters get to the office they are fighting so we now have to buy another cage.... so now we have 2 parents, 2 children, 2 rabbits, and 2 hampsters. Now if you dont already know, this is in addition to the cat that was given to me and my winnie dog scooter whom my dearest aunt gave me and the two horses we already had. In my mind i think hmmm well we now have a petting zoo, all that is missing are the goats... ok so we are content now right.... HA... so here goes... bored yet? As we all know the trips to the pet shop are havin to be more frequent because of all the feed and bedding that has to be bought. Well to make a long story shorter, a couple of weeks roll by and well we became the proud owners of 2 guinea pigs... ok so by this time i have told my children that there will be absolutely no more pets in the Holcomb household.
well hmmm remember the rabbits and the part about them being in the same cage, which is not the same kennel cage but is one that rolls..(thank you katy).... well we now have an adorable baby rabbit....lol
so scooter now sleeps in the kennel at night because he gets into lots and lots trouble while everyone but the one cracked out hampster that runs on the wheel every night sleeps snug in their beds. Just ask Katy how annoying that wheel can be..lol... well with a move of the petting zoo into the utility room so the zoo area can be used for jewerly party the cracked out hampster keeps scootie awake at night therefore signing his death wish because he (the cracked out hampster) is now in hampster heaven because scootie broke into the cage and kilt him dead.... now the other lazy hampster who never runs on anything is still alive and his cage was right beside the grave of the other.... so i know in scooties sweet little winnie mind, he said to the hampster "you have kept me up for the last time".... "say hello to our maker"....lol
Trust me i know your year has held many more exciting and interesting events than mine but i just wanted to let you know just how pathetic my life really is...lol... not really look at how much LIFE i am surrounded by!

To my best friends... I hope this was worth the wait!
