We may have missed a day of posting, but we have a good excuse we promise! Since arriving in Jersey we've had one mission and one mission alone, EXCAVATE THE HOUSE! That's right we're pulling vines out of trees and trees out of the ground. We're throwing away all the things you "might" use one day and making way for clean counter space you can use today! Our goal is to behold a basement that doesn't give you nightmares ( I haven't included any pictures of it for fear there may be children watching.)

Regardless of the challenges this memory packed family home has thrown at us it has been so rewarding to be here helping clean up. We both have lived out some dreams these past few days like riding a lawnmower and bashing large bits of furniture into pieces. The best items we've found in the house are definitely the massive playboy collection a bottle of Pelinkovac from Susan's wedding and a real life bird! My aunties were nice enough to buy dinner for us tonight so we are well fed and ready for round 3 tomorrow!
