Watership Down

Watership Down is one of Bryan's favorite books.

When my mom found the rabbits, I wanted to name them 'Peter' & 'Penelope' but Bryan insisted on Fiver (the brown one) and Dandelion (the white one) - names he got from the book.

In this book the rabbits have a whole language which Bryan now jokes that since I do not know I will never be accepted by the bunnies.

Really . . . who knows what silpat means? :)

Are they not adorable. We love having these bunnies. Bryan did an amazing job of building the rabbit hutch and run. He even shingled the top of it. We are going to paint the outside of it a green color so that when the yard is landscaped we will incorporate it in to our landscape and it won't be so "here's our yard and yes we have a rabbit hutch." Hopefully it will look a little natural. I also have to find out what kinds of plants rabbits do not like so I don't plant them close.

Fiver (the brown one) is very camera shy. This is the only picture where he wouldn't turn his back on me.

A little down time . . . yeah right

We are always so busy. I keep meaning to post on this blog and add photos but of course the photos are all on the computer downstairs. But now my ever-so-talented hubby has made my laptop and his computer a network, so I can access all of the photos on this computer.

Is it really that hard to walk downstairs and use his computer?, you ask? The answer is no, but this one is so much more convenient. I can work on several things at one time while I wait for things to load on different websites - and all my stuff is now accumulating on this computer. If Bryan ever needs a laptop for his job again I'm sunk. :)

I will post pics of our new bunnies soon. Dandelion and Fiver are so cute. Bryan is finishing up their deluxe hutch as I type.

Here are some pics of the girls. I am going to use these pictures on a scrapbook page called "Hobo Princesses"
