Good morning everyone! Little later than normal was chatting with my hubby and lost track of time this morning and didn't get a chance to say it before I got to work.
 
Love this guy BUT He keeps kidnapping my corals hahaha ( I think I know what's going on, looking at the pattern of the corals he's taking, the glue I used at that time is definitely not good )

Get him a hat then he might leave the corals alone. They sell all kinds of them on etsy.

My boss just came over the intercom here at work and said they are going to be testing our fire alarms and for us not to panic or exit the building, personally I think it would be more fun to exit the building...
