photos from the weekend

ugh, it was hard to go back to work after a four day weekend. but it was a fun one!

we had a great new year's eve at a friend of a friend's house.

we missed the mummer's parade new year's day, and i was bummed. hopefully next year?

eric and i take care of two stray cats (with the help of our neighbors). it got really cold and windy this week and we had been meaning to build them some shelter. at first we just used an old cat litter box, which ms. white approved of.

but then eric got some spare wood and built them a shelter, which he then covered in trash bags to keep out the rain. grissom approved.

after saving the cats we met up with friends for chinese at kingdom of vegetarians. it was a yummy start to the new year.

but everytime we decide to do something, juli usually doesn't have her bike, so we have to improvise.
