Maggie

Announcement:

It's official I am a mommy to the cutest kitten in the world. Yes, you read right, THE CUTEST KITTEN in the WORLD! Her name is Maggie and she is curled up on my blanket as we speak just purring away. My parents cat Jade had kittens and they saved us one! We got her last Friday. Saturday, Bill and I decided to give her a bath...well guess what we found, FLEAS! AHHH!!!I freaked out, seriously I handed her to Bill and left the room. I guess I'm a little terrified of those nasty bugs...anyway, Bill dried her off and we rushed to the pet store and got some intense flea killer. We gave her ANOTHER bath and then combed all the fleas away. SHE IS NOW FLEA FREE!!! YAY!!! We also sprayed our apartment to kill any unwanted fleas. WHEW!
Well, Maggie is so feisty. She likes to play fight all the time; she'll run away and then charge after you. Who thought a cat would be like that! It's so fun to play with her. We bought a laser and she runs after that thing like it's a mouse. SO FUNNY! Here are some pictures.



















































I was trying to study, but she kept sitting on my notes, and playing with me!




















Poor Maggie!

Halloween

I know it's been like a week since Halloween, but I'm slow at posting the happenings of our life!!! Anyway, I carved my first pumpkin this year!! It was sooo fun!! Well, Bill actually did most of the work, but I helped gut it! :) After we were done carving it, I roasted the seeds...MMM!!!!!! They were very yummy! Friday I dressed up as a Zombie! I got some of the craziest looks from people..but I also got lots of compliments! Halloween night we went to the football game with Bill's family. It was wet and cold, but the team did really well. The half time show was the BEST though!!! The Pride of the Southland is seriously the best band in the U.S. (just so you know, oh and Bill was a member of it for 3 years...so I have all the rights to BRAG!). Since the game landed on Halloween night the band did a Halloween show, and boy did they rock it! A few of the selections included This is Halloween from Nightmare Before Christmas, Jaws theme song, Thriller. They DANCED to thriller, how entertaining. They even wore just one glove!!! BAHAHAHA!! I loved it! The half time show turned my night from yucky to AWESOME...the cold wet weather just was not fun! Overall I had a really good Halloween!



















Me, zombiefied! :)

JAWS!


















Last week I had an exam in every one of my classes. Whew, that was tough! I did pass all of my exams, though...and even A's on some of them!!! Wow, I KNOW! I am really enjoying my new major, it's such a blessing to actually enjoy what I'm doing. I actually look forward to going to class now. Bill's doing great in his classes, he just passed a test for Ear Training...he has one left and he'll be done with that class! He has been SOOO busy these days. He goes to class, then rides his bike to work, then comes home around 8...we eat dinner then go to bed. He gets no breaks. I try to help him out wherever I can, but he's just being pulled thin. I'm looking forward to our Thanksgiving break, we WILL relax!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Oh, GUESS WHAT! We're getting a kitty!!!! I'm really excited!!! The closest I'll get to being a mommy for a while! ;) My parents cat just had a litter so my parents are giving us one! I can't wait to see it!!!!!
