Our bunny has a new home! Mr. Squeakers originally belonged to my daughters friend but when she went to university her parents were going to release the bunny "into the wild". Yeah, black domesticated bunny into brown wild vegetation...you do the math. The bunny came to live with us. Now that daughter has a place outside for the hutch....new home.
Family birthday party....three birthdays and 20 people. BBQ Shredded Beef sandwiches, green salad and a fabulous fruit salad plus cake and singing.
This week is Book Monster's Pick Your Thon (read, review, or both) so I'll be busy with that. My initial post is here and there will be updates posted throughout the week plus a mini challenge Tuesday.
Hope everyone has a great week planned.
Mailbox Monday is a place to share all the wonderful books that have come to live in your home– including paper books, e-books and audio books. Started by Marcia of The Printed Page, the mailbox is currently on tour. Check it out so you know where to go next month.

Very cool of you to take in the black rabbit. I don't know why people think domesticated animals are going to revert so easily to the wild. Hell if they were that easy to revert, why would you want them in your house to begin with? LOL - at least one bunny is safe, though.
Love the huge amount of books you're currently reading. I'm usually in the middle or somewhere of at least 10 books, though I don't always list them all - if I listed all the books I've started...there would be quite a long list, LOL.
Happy Reading!
my Monday post is up at http://mardel-rabidreader.blogspot.com/2012/04/monday-monday-monday.html
Wow ...lot's of new books. How did you enjoy the Robyn Carr book? I enjoyed the 2 I read a few years back and own a few more.
Have a good week.
I'm glad you saved the bunny from the wild.
Those kindle books should keep you busy for a few days.
Sounds like a fun birthday party! Glad the bunny is safe and sound in a new home :) Enjoy your new books!
Yea for saving the bunny. I had a bunny growing up and now my son wants one although we are holding off.
YOu got some great books. Enjoy
Great reading week! Enjoy the upcoming one...

I'm slowly making my way through Robyn Carr's Virgin River series - I just finished reading book 7. My goal is to be caught up by the end of the year!
Hope you have a great week and you enjoy all your new reads!
Kristin @ Always With a Book
A full week ahead of you - books wise. Enjoy them all.
I recently reviewed the Priest and the Peaches. I honestly had a hard time putting it down. I liked it. I hope you enjoy it.
