Another Fish Update!

So after now having 3 fish and having to change their water in their small aquarium we decided we needed a bigger aquarium with a filter! So our weekend project became "if you give a mouse a cookie"...

Step 1 we bought a 10 gallon aquarium kit at Walmart for $30 (note the 5 gallon was $28 so we thought for only 2 more dollars get the bigger aquarium) Then we decided this table was NOT going to work as a stand for the aquarium although I think our cats disagreed!  They were quite happy having a birds (cats) eye view!

Then after a stop at PetSmart we ended up with new gravel, plants and of course a princess castle for the fish to enjoy! (another $20ish bucks for all this)

Step #2 We ended up back at Walmart to buy an aquarium stand, another almost $40, and of course an abandoned pirate ship for the aquarium came home as well ($12)
but the end result is 3 happy little fish, one happy little girl, and a happy husband who has wanted a fish tank, well for about all of the 14 years we have been married!
So Miss Indiana, Miss American and Princess are happily living in their new home and have also been given new names!

introducing...Selena Gomez, Taylor Swift, and Katy Perry :)

Our best attempt at a family picture!   Mom, Dad, daughter, 2 cats and 3 fish...and they lived happily ever after!!
