Building a bookcase

Well, guys, Nancy has been to Ikea and has brought us this bookcase for the guestroom. Let's put it together for her.
Laars! Get out of the way! I'm trying to pound in the pegs here.
You ok, Laars?
I think I'll be alright.
Now it's time to put the top and bottom shelves in place.
What? you have a pain in your tail?

You are a pain in the tail, Bjorn.

You guys bring me the thingamajigs that secure the shelves, please!
Thingamajigs?
Which ones?
I dunno.
Just bring them all.

Now, to secure the back panel, we hammer in these nails.
Lemme try!
Lemme try!

Please please!!
Alright, but you rats be careful with the hammer.

Owwww!!!!!!
Oops.
Sorry, Bjorn.

Ow ow ow. My poor little nose.
Maybe you won't be sticking it into so many things now.
Fat chance of that.

That's all for this part! It'll look great once we get the other units up, and the doors on, and all the books in. For now, let's go have some dinner.

Yeah! All that hammering is hard work.

Makes a rat pretty hungry. And bruised.

Southbound

Here we are driving around Indianapolis.
What? Indy is closed?
Oh.
I guess we'll just head on south for the rest of our vacation, then.

In Kentucky there was this fun buffalo.
I wanted to invite him along,

but he was chained down.
No shuffling off for this buffalo.

In Nashville I got to meet Elvis!

Finally we got to Alabama, which at first didn't seem like a very friendly place.

We stopped for the day in Cullman, where we went to play in the park.

I got to score all the goals in Rabbit Basketball.

See ya later!

Maurice in Indianapolis

Darrell has a great pillow at his place. With tassels and everything.
Here we are ready for dinner at a Korean Barbeque restaurant. I like barbequed carrots.

What, this isn't the seat for rabbits?

Then we went to Potato Creek park for a fun day of picnicing and canoeing on the lake.

Look at me! Hey! Don't go too far!

Erfff

Thanks, Dad.

Is it time to go eat the birthday cake yet?

In the yard

I just love these late spring days,

when the grass starts to get tall,

and the flowers make a really good salad.

What's all that noise?

Maurice! Look!
A monster!
Hey! It's cutting our meadow!
Quick, we must defend our territory.
Look mean.
Look real mean.

Run away!!!!
!!!!!

It almost got us.
It's gone over by the apple tree now.

oooo, that was close.

We should be safe up here on the ladder.
But all our tasty flowers are gone.
True, but now you can see the cats coming.
Ah.
Yeah, there is that.

Cherrytime

Hey, Bjorn, these cherries are really good!
Laars! Will you pick some cherries for Astrid and me?
Psst, Bjorn! The big boss wants some cherries.

Just wait, Astrid, Laars and Bjorn and Britta will bring us some, and we'll have a picnic.

Ah, thanks, guys. Appreciate it!

You sure you have enough? We can get more!
Yeah, yeah, Laars, we're good here. Thanks!

Maurice has email!

just to let you all know,
I now have my very own email address, where you can contact me directly. If anybody wants to talk to a pink rabbit, that it.

Sunbathing

Hey, there's Maurice.

He's looking particularly pink today.

Yo! Bunny Boy! Where've you been?

Well, I went to San Sebastian with Nancy, and they had this really nice beach there.
The sand was so inviting and warm I figured I would lay down for a while.
And I fell asleep.
I got a terrible sunburn!
I'm all hot pink!

Yep, that's pink all right.
I thought he was supposed to be pink.
Not this pink.
Just pink pink, not PINK pink.

Oh.
