Hooray!!!

We have somehow completed the invisible fence for our yard.  Actually, I DO know how we did it... We gave up two of our weekends. Haha :)  We worked on the invisible fence both days last weekend, and we knew we'd have to work on it really hard this weekend too if we wanted to finish. On Saturday morning, we decided that we were just going to push through and work as hard as we possibly could all day, so that hopefully we wouldn't have to work on Sunday and we could just lay on the couch and be unbelievably tired and sore. WELL, we worked from about 9am until about 6pm, but sadly we were not finished... We were so tired by Saturday evening that we could barely move. But somehow on Sunday morning we managed to drag our sore bodies back out to our yard by 8am, and by 12:45 in the afternoon I'm SO happy to say that we were FINISHED. We did it!!!  Oh my gosh that was hard. Now we just have to train Guinness to understand the fence, so hopefully that goes smoothly...

Our cute boy!

This coming weekend we're supposed to go camping for one night at Assateague Island National Park with McGee's parents and some of their family friends. I didn't know anything about Assateague Island, but now that I've read a little about it, it sounds AWESOME! It's located in Maryland and Virginia, and there are wild horses running around! It sounds super cool.

Here's a picture of some of the horses on Assateague beach! 

However, we aren't quite sure if we're going to end up being able to go to Assateague.... One reason is that it's supposed to be raining all weekend, and camping in the rain isn't really a lot of fun (shout-out to Shannon and my family, and our super hilarious camping trip in the pouring rain back in high school!). Another reason is that there's still the potential that the National Parks are going to shut down because of the stupid Federal budget issues...  Which brings me to another topic:

Our honeymoon is in a few weeks! As I've mentioned, we're planning on going to a lot of National Parks, including the Grand Canyon and Utah's National Parks. So... we've got a rough idea for a contingency plan, just in case the parks are shut down (and for that long). There are plenty of other things to do in the area, including Las Vegas (of course), so we'll have fun no matter what.  I hope we get to do everything we'd planned, but it'll be a blast no matter what.

Oh Grand Canyon, I hope to see you soon! 

I hope you all had a great weekend, and I hope you did a LOT less work than we did!!  I swear, I'm so sore that even typing hurts!
