When the Cat's away....

if there is one thing my mom taught me to do well, it was to live by the law that "when the cat's away the mice will play!" but now that the cat's in Africa! the mice are getting a little carried away!

so mom,
remember this....(minus the pile of clothes on the ironing board. that's all me!)

well, now it looks like this...


what do you expect when i have time off of school. of course i'm going to do some home remodeling and since i don't have my own home anymore....you reap the benefits! it's really bright and fresh in there. we went to home depot and got some blinds for the window (they look great!) and a new light fixture (you were in desperate need!) and a new door for the entrance! it's like a whole new room. it makes me actually want to do laundry! in fact, for once...i'm 100% caught up! (but lets be real, i'm sure that wont last too long!)

i hope the cat doesn't mind too much. cause let's be honest...it may be the first of many playdates for the mice!!

love you, miss you!

Yipee for talented, hard-working mice! The room looks great. You did it again Marci, perfect choice in color! Thank you so much. I have a feeling I should be giving an extra big thanks to a little mouse named James for all his hard work and manual labor. So THANK YOU JAMES! If your playdates always end up looking this good. Play Away! Love you both!!! The Cat

Mom and Dad are going to come home to a totally different house.
I really want to paint my laundry room now.

Your Mom's post is so cute. I think the laundry room looks great and if you run out of places to play I will move out and let you work on my house.
