February Tornado

This was our view of the February tornado which damaged much of north Edmond. The store was in it's "quiet zone." Everything was still, no rain, no hail, just an eerie quiet.

Stephanie took this photo with her phone and we did not realize what we were witnessing until we got the photo up on the computer. We hope to never see this site again.

6 days old

Our furry angels are still perfect.

Their eyes started opening today.

We started to look to see if they are boys or girls today. 8 more days till we can hold them.

This is the shower/holiday storage closet they are hanging out in. So we pulled some stuff out and moved a box in for Peng and her kittens. We cut the top off the box before they made it home for easy viewing. After we coo over the sweetness we are able to close it back up so it is dark and cozy for the little ones.

4 days old

We think the babies have already doubled in size. Is this normal !?!?

The sign on the front door to the office has officially been changed out from

"Do not let pregnant cat out the door"
to
"Do not let the NEW MOM or her BABIES out the door!"

Our "regulars" are getting a kick out of checking in on our cat seeing how she is doing. Even though we are not showing mommy and the babies off yet. In a few weeks we might bring them out but for now they are tucked safe away in their dark box in the shower. Which we strategically cut the top off to make a lid for easy viewing on our part!

I spy something sweet

Look what Christel found Sunday when she came up to the store!

Little momma thought the shower in the ladies restroom was a good spot to have her babies. All 6 of them! No wonder she was MASSIVE.
In a delicate petite way, of course.

Good Things Ahead

...

..
This funny looking rock man is an Inukshuk. For the past year Christel has been telling everyone who would listen about her dream of an Inukshuk on the yard. And finally her dream came true when Bill told her to pick out the stones she likes and the building would take place the next day. Yippee!

An Inukshuk is a man made stone landmark used by the Inuit of the Artic region of North America. It marked "good things ahead." Such as good hunting and safe passage.

And now this rock man marks
The Best Stone Yard in Oklahoma!

Bus Driver...MOVE THAT BUS!

oh....wait......that is not a bus....it's our puurrfect cat Peng.
She is now officially EXTREMELY pregnant.

She is larger than her last go around of kittens so I am guessing there are 4 little mini's in there. The kittens are to the size now we can not only feel them but see them move. We can look down at her Kirstie Alley stomach and it will be misshapen kind of like Michael Jackson's nose. ohhhh sorry. Too soon?
