What I’m Loving Wednesday

Linking up with Jaime for What I’m Loving Wednesday.

I’m LOVING that we finally have found an officiant!!! See…we had one, but then when we switched the venue the time also go changed so that person couldn’t marry us because of a time confliction. Well then we were left with less than 10 weeks to go and no one to marry us. My awesome step-mom found someone yesterday and I’m sending the deposit and form to the person tomorrow!! Go figure that the one huge problem we would have with the wedding planning would be with the officiant, which is kinda a huge part of the whole wedding!!!

I’m LOVING that I finally get to sleep in tomorrow!! It’s another full week of subbing for me with tomorrow being the only half day of the week and it’s in the afternoon. 5 days of subbing in a row is rough because I’m still working my other job on the weekend so if I have a full week of subbing, that’s a lot of days of me working with no days off!!!

I’m LOVING the new season of Hell’s Kitchen. B and I started watching it earlier tonight and this looks like it’s going to be a great season!! We were 12 minutes in and we were on the edge of our seats!! We’ll have to wait until Friday night to finish the rest of the 2 hour premiere though.

And as always, I’m LOVING my wonderful fiance and our cats!! I’ve been picture crazy with the cats recently so here are some recent pics I took.

I have no idea what she was doing here. I kept calling her name and she wouldn’t even flinch. And she stayed in this position for a good minute or so.

Went back to my room and saw this…

She had her head down and was so much cuter before I took this pic. I tried to sneak up on her so she wouldn’t move, but it didn’t work. 

It’s already March??!!??

Wow…this year seems like it’s just flying by!! It feels like just yesterday it was New Year’s day and now here we are, the third month of the year. So far it has been a pretty good year. Here’s a quick recap of my 2013 so far:

January:

On January 2nd I officially became a substitute teacher! Also on that day, one of my bridesmaids and I picked the dress for her and the other bridesmaids.

January 8th I had my first subbing job! It was only a half day, but still. Since then I’ve been getting a lot of subbing in, about 3 or 4 a week.

January 28th I turned 23…nothing really too special about that. B took me out to eat and only had to pay for himself because you get a free meal on your birthday there!! It stinks that neither of our birthdays will fall on a Saturday or Sunday anytime soon because we really want to go there for breakfast sometime!!

Oh, and I forget the exact date of this, but we went on our first date of the year from the “12 Dates of Christmas” that I gave B for Christmas. We went ice skating!!

February:

We finally secured a place for our reception!!! With it being about 3 months till the wedding in February, we were getting kind of nervous about where we were going to have the reception! We even considered our backyard!!! But luckily it didn’t have to come to that.

We finally figured out the timeline for our wedding. Our wonderful photographer met with us and pretty much planned the whole day out for us. He has gone above and beyond for us and we couldn’t be more grateful for that!!

We had our cake consultation and decided on what kind of cake we are having and what it is going to look like! I still need to decide what flowers we are using so I can tell them what kind of flowers I want on the cake and I need to get them swatches of color so they can match it to the cake.

And the last wedding thing that happened in February…I did my trial run for my hair. I really like how it turned out, but I might change one thing about it. I’m not telling though, because I’m not sure if B will read this and I want to keep it a secret from him.

And that’s about all the exciting things that have happened this year so far. We’re only 63 days into the year and I know that the best days of the year are yet to come! One of those days is 75 days away!!! I still can’t believe that it is almost here!! It will be here before I know it!!

Well, that’s all I’ve got for now. I’m going to go pin away on Pinterest until 8:00 when an all-new Switched at Birth comes on!! According to the previews, it will “change the way you see the world”. So stay tuned for a post about that! Have a great Monday night everyone!!

Aren’t they the cutest? I found them in my closet today laying like this..they’re best buds!!

Weekend Recap

I know, I’m a day late with the weekend recap, but it’s better late than never, right? So if you saw my last post, you saw that on Saturday my fiance and I went to the Humane League and we adopted a new kitten, Tigger. He’s doing good and is just so full of energy! I see a little bit of Milo in him with the way he is so playful!! And Mia is doing a little better with him. There are times that he’ll go up to her and she doesn’t hiss. All he wants to do is play with her!

On Sunday I went to the Dollar Tree to get Tigger a collar that would jingle. Well, it ended up not fitting him yet so we’re going to have to wait until he grows into it. Then my fiance and I just sat on the couch and played the Sims, I guess you can say we kind of have an obsession with the game, lol. We went to visit my dad and step-mom to give my dad his father’s day give. I got him this shirt (but in blue)…

He loves riding his bicycle, so when I saw this shirt, I knew it was perfect for him!!! I also got him a baked apple pie scent pak from Scentsy that he can put in his car to make it smell good.

Then we went to Walmart to get some things to make for dinner this week. We also got another expansion pack for the Sims 3, the Ambitions pack. It’s pretty cool because you can have the Sims have professions instead of jobs and they can work at other places than just the office. Then after we got home I had to go to work. So other than going to get Tigger on Saturday, nothing too eventful happened.

One of my bridesmaids is coming over tomorrow so we can hangout all day so I have to go and clean the house a little bit. I’ve kind of been slacking with keeping up with the housework. I definitely need to get better about that! Leave me comments! Have a great Tuesday everyone!!! I leave you with some instagram pictures I’ve taken recently.

Welcome to the family!

Today my fiance and I decided to go to the Humane League to check out the cats there. We thought we were going to just be looking, but we thought wrong. I’d like to introduce you all to Tigger!

    We wanted to get another cat so that Mia has a friend and we didn’t want to wait too long to get another one. When we first got Mia, we were afraid that her and Milo wouldn’t get along. At first they didn’t and Milo would his at her every time he saw her. So I don’t care if people tell me that it was too soon for us to get another cat, we feel that it wasn’t. It isn’t like we are replacing Milo. No cat will ever be able to replace Milo, ever! After the way Mia is acting towards Tigger, we are so glad that we got him when we did because she has been hissing at him a bit. If we would have waited any longer to get another cat, things could have been a lot worse!!

We were going to leave Tigger in the box for a little bit and let Mia smell it. But Tigger kept meowing so we let him out. Here is a picture of their first look at each other! So cute! Tigger just wanted to explore his new home.

And Mia doesn’t seem to want anything to do with him. It is just like when Mia was the new kitten! And Tigger, he doesn’t seem to care one bit. He has been too busy exploring.

And here is a picture of one of the first times Mia hissed at Tigger. She’s hissing at Tigger just like Milo hissed at her. Except she isn’t hissing at him as much as Milo hissed at her.

       

Now Tigger is sleeping on the couch right beside me. I’m glad that’s where he is cause otherwise I’d have to be following him around like I was earlier to make sure he doesn’t go to the bathroom anywhere besides the litter box. I have to work later tonight and my fiance just left recently to go play airsoft, so I’m going to have to put Tigger in the bathroom with some food and water. We don’t want to leave them alone with each other until we are sure that they will get along.

It took a little while for Milo and Mia to get used to each other and they eventually did. They were best friends!! Here are some pictures I got of them last week.

 

And here is the last picture that I took of Milo…

Mommy and daddy miss you Milo…and we always will!!! No cat can ever replace you!!! You were our first kitten together and you will never be forgotten!!!
