Welcome to crazy month March! Our to-do list around these parts is packed to the brim.
Tomorrow we are having an early Easter dinner with Kyle's family.
Then we have my aunt's wedding next Saturday. I'm honored to be doing a reading during her ceremony, so we have a rehearsal/dinner Friday evening and then the wedding on Saturday. It'll be a nice run-through for Kyle with my gigantic family who he will see again in October.
Next weekend will be followed by a trip to Arkansas the next weekend to visit Kyle's grandparents. We're blessed to have such a large family on both sides who love and support us!
Oh yeah, and we're planning that whole wedding thing. ;) Turns out that October is the most popular wedding month of the year in Texas, so I have had to get most of the major planning out of the way.
Next up...food and drinks!
Even with our busy schedule, I feel like I have been do a lot better with that balance problem I've been battling. Good things are coming people!
Two of my favorite things this week ( and every week)
I have to admit that before these two, it had been awhile since I had a really strong bond with a cat. I've had cats for a long time but with the distraction of dogs, it's sometimes hard to really build that bond.
Mayhem (on the right) is our puppy. He needs to be involved in everything we do. That includes putting up the groceries, hanging a picture, taking a shower, etc. Every morning he hangs out in between the shower curtains while I take a shower and every evening he snuggles on the couch with me (unless Kyle is going to the kitchen because we keep the toy in there). We're pretty sure he is incapable of hissing.
Danger is more of the typical cat type. She likes pets and cuddles but only on her schedule. She comes up for a pet from Kyle every night before we go to sleep. She's definitely Kyle's girl but is coming around to me again slowly but surely. (She went in to heat twice before she was fixed and it changed her personality. She became a little grumpier and didn't want to hang out with me as much for whatever reason.) She also follows us from room to room but is usually hanging back being a creeper as opposed to Mayhem who is always all up in our business.
We adopted both of them from shelters as kittens. We rescued Mayhem off of death row (He wouldn't let people touch him. HA! What a change!) It has been so interesting to watch them grow up and develop such distinct personalities. It goes to show that nurture definitely plays a part with nature. We like to sit around and watch My Cat from Hell and talk about what awesome cat parents we are. You know, like you watch wife swap to remember how normal your family is.
One day I just woke up and suddenly I was a boring grownup. I make sure to eat enough greens each week, enjoy my coffee in the morning while I read the newspaper blogs, and write about my cats on Saturday night.
Sorry I'm not sorry ;)
