It's begining to feel a lot like Christmas...


We put our Christmas tree up two weeks ago. And I have been busy wrapping presents and doing Christmas shopping. Our kitten has a hard time resisting temptation when it comes to the tree and the decorations on it...she thinks they are her personal play toys. She also spends hours under the tree with the presents....attacking them as if they were her prey. A spray bottle comes in handy when she assumes this behavior...but no amount of water will keep her away. But we love her anyway.
It finally snowed and its starting to feel like winter. I'm not a fan of driving in this kind of weather but I definately like watching the snow fall and cuddling up with some hot chocolate. This is our first Chritmas as a married couple...and we are looking forward for many more to come :)

OuR kItTy...LiLLy

We adopted her from the shelter three weeks ago...she is three and a half months old and we love her. After our kitty Izzy died...we missed having an animal around the house. So when we saw Lilly and heard her adorable meowing as we opened her cage and she climbed all over us...we knew we had to take her home. And even though Izzy can never be replaced...our new kitten has found a place in our hearts and made them grow even bigger. We love it when she lays on us and purrs away...and I have never seen a cat jump as high as she does when she plays. She climbes on everything...including my clothes hanging up in the closet...and we have to check every drawer we open to make sure she isnt in it when we close it. She's a very curious little kitty. And Brian loves to play hide and seek with her. She has brought a lot of joy to us and we look forward to watching her grow.

ThAnKsGiViNg!

I can't believe Thanksgiving has already come and gone! We went to Burley and stayed with Brian's parents. We went down wednesday night and my mom and I did some baking...we made our famous pumpkin rolls...which are delicious! On Thanksgiving we ate at Curtis and Carey's house (Brian's aunt and uncle)and it was the biggest Thanksgiving dinner I have ever had. Then we went to visit my grandma and grandpa Moralez. Then we went to My moms and ate some yummy pupkin pie. Then I helped her put up the Christmas tree...which we always have fun doing. We usually put it up the day after Thanksgiving but my mom had to work so we decided to do it a day early. Then later that night we went to my dad's and visited. On friday my grandma wanted me to go shopping with her so I woke up at 3:30 in the morning and managed to get my bum out of the nice cozy warm bed. And I met her at JcPenny because they opened at 4 am. Then we went to Wallie world because they were opening up at 5 am. Let me tell you...I have never seen so many people in the Burley Wal-Mart at one time! It was crazy! But we got some really good deals! And by 6 am we were done shopping and I drove back to Brian's and went back to sleep. He totally thought I was crazy for getting up so early to go shopping but it was fun...and my grandma needed someone to help her fight the crowd. Then Brian's mom made us breakfast and we headed back to Boise becaue Brian had to work at 2pm. It's always stressful to try and visit everyone in one trip down to Burley...but somehow we make it happen :)
