We FINALLY asked our landlord if we could get a pet (and by we, I mean I begged Garrett to do it!) and she said yes…then Garrett immediately went out and adopted a cute 4 week old grey tabby. He told me I would love her, and when I came home he was right…love at first sight! She is very friendly, playful and sweet. She loves to chase her mouse toy, her ball, your toes, anything! But she also loves to be pet and cuddled.

We have to give credit to Brittany for coming up with the name…she came up with it immediately when I asked her for help. We both thought it was a perfect fit for her. Thank you Britt!!!

I love cats, and I’m so excited to watch her grow. I’m sure I will be posting more pics later! Although we have found that it’s really hard to get her to stay still or look in the right direction…so this is the best we’ve got!

I can’t believe it’s already July. Garrett’s sister Alyssa graduated from High School (CONGRATULATIONS ALYSSA!) , his mom Debbie had an amazing 50th bday bash, and we just got back from LA for a wedding (CONGRATULATIONS TO THE DEIHLS!) and Universal Studios. June was a busy, yet fun month.

On Thursday we were able to spend Thanksgiving with my mom’s side of family at my aunt’s house. We had good food, the guys played some poker, and just had some quality time with everyone.

On Friday we went over to Garrett’s parents house for games and dinner. We had fun playing Partini and Catch Phrase. Friday night was the time I wait for all year…time to decorate for Christmas! We picked out our decorations and a tree over this last week. Then that night we turned on the Christmas tunes, with hot chocolate and a fire, set it all up, and our house is now transformed for the Christmas season.

This time of year is always my favorite. It’s a great time to spend with family, friends and to reflect on what God has blessed us with. This year we are thankful for our marriage, for time with our families, for our amazing friends, and just the little everyday blessings that God showers on us.
