Bugs, Kittens, etc

It's been a while since I updated, but I have lots of pictures to make up for my absence!

I have complained to some people about the serious infestation of bugs we have in our apartment. Dead flies, ladybugs, and now a new type of bug (I think it's a cadydid?) have appeared on a regular basis. I got a picture of a particularly elusive giant bug (it hid from me for about 5 minutes).









While Josh's parents were in Florida, we babysat their cat. Apparently, Tobias (the female cat) loves water. I witnessed this as I was getting ready to take a bath and kitty was very intrigued. See...




















Unfortunately, I didn't get a picture of when kitty fell in, hilarious.


Finally, another picture from our "balcony". Things are beginning to look greener :)

Long Weekend

We had a very eventful weekend! We went back to my hometown of Evansville to hang out with family. Spent a lot of time with grandpa and going through some things. I came back with 20 pounds of fabric (yes, I weighed it!) and some yarn. After finishing the last afghan, I have around 3 more to finish for other family members. Lots of projects on the horizon.

Heard lots of about wedding plans, so exciting. I have a love of all things weddings. We're trying to convince dad and kyra to get married somewhere tropical. I think that's what they really want to do. Mom and I watched Mamma Mia, which was really good. I was definitely pleasantly surprised. And, I kinda love Abba. It reminds me of one of my favorite Office scenes. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q3lUscxJi88 Seriously, watch this. It will make your day.

Sunday we met some friends at Qdoba...delicious. It was really nice to get to see everybody! Thanks for getting together :) Then we went looking at houses with Josh's parents and Em. Saw some pretty cute ones, so we'll see if they end up putting in a bid.

Other than that, we're in our stretch of lots of time off (5 out of 7 days) so we're trying to enjoy that while we can. I love this stretch. We also took our guys who made honor roll out to lunch today. Definitely got our money's worth at the Asian Buffet! Those boys can eat.

Finally--it's getting warm again! I want to put away my winter coat.
