Busy Weekend!

This weekend has been keeping us busy. Ever since we lost Roxy, Mickey has been super lonely while we're at work. When we get home, he cries and cries. He has NEVER done that. We knew he was going to need some sort of friend here. We're not ready for another dog, so we've been thinking about a kitten.

When I got home from work, I looked to see what time the SPCA closed, which was 4pm. So, after dinner and stuff, we made our way to Pet Smart. We went to one and they only had 2 adult cats. Mickey would not be able to handle an adult cat coming into his house. A small kitten, he would treat a his little one (lie Herman). So, we went to another one and found 2 that we loved. The adoption ladies left 15 minutes before we got there. They were both boys and one was gray and white and the other was fully black. They were so playful and so cute. But, we needed to come back Saturday to adopt.

Since we knew what was at Pet Smart, I wanted to wake up early and see what was at the SPCA. We feel in love with these group of 4 kittens. They were making such a mess playing in their huge kennel. We continued to look, just to make sure. We knew we didn't want to separate anyone and leave someone by themselves. Then, we found out that black kittens were free, or you could get 1 kitten for $50 or 2 for $51. We knew we would then be getting 2. We're saving lives here. How could you argue?

We found these 2 very cute black kittens. We were able to spend some time with them (separately) and see if we liked them. The first one, didn't really click with us, so we went to the next on our list. This one was so lovable and a cuddle monkey. I knew this one was for me. The next one was so playful and rambunctious, Jason knew that was was for him. They are both little girls and about 3 months old. because they both need to get spayed, they have to stay at the shelter until they are, Friday. So, we can pick them up on Saturday morning. I'll be there right when they open.

We don't have very good photos, but here's the playful one...


Here's the love bug...


Right afterwards, we went straight to our friends kids' birthday party. It was a nice party. It was good to see our friends again. There aren't many chances where all the wives and husbands can get together.

Here's the birthday trying to hit open his Pinata. What a good idea to have in their trampoline. Easy clean up.

A few hours after we got home, my parents came over to celebrate my dad's birthday. I fixed him dinner and dessert, then we sat around and just talked for a while. I think it was a good night.

Today, we just slept in (yes not running for me this morning, I wasn't in the mood). Then we watched a movie and Jason had to get ready for work. He still works the same job. I'm still getting free stuff from my blog. Everything else is going pretty nicely.

We can't wait to pick up our little kittens next weekend. I'll post more pictures then.
