Thanksgiving

I hope everyone's Thanksgiving (Canada) was incredible :)

Mine was spent out at the Lake eating lots of turkey and taking crisp & beautiful Autumn walks...

followed by making turkey dinner at our new apartment! My only complaint is that the Turkey could have been cooked about 20 minutes longer than it would've been perfect.

This Thanksgiving I'm thankful for:

• Being able to afford food & shelter (seriously.)
• Our little Minni.
• The lucky love I have in my life. By no means are John & I perfect, but we're definitely perfect for each other. 
• Our families who take incredibly good care of us and "let" us raid their cupboards (hehe).
• Pretty Little Liars. LOL!

What are you thankful for?

This Little Monster & A New Career

In recent days, this little monster has basically taken over our lives! She's absolutely adorable but she's also a little terror! She'll nook up against our necks or climb up our legs when we're doing the dishes among other things. We really do love her but she's definitely a daddy's little girl. Isn't that the truth?!

Anyway, last week I mentioned something that I was excited about but couldn't mention it quite yet and while the news is long over due... I got a new job!

I'm an Admissions Director for the Academy of Learning where I basically recruit new students and keep tabs on the current ones (making sure they're going to graduate)!

I'm definitely excited about it and even though I'm not going to school, I'm still helping people who are in need of a boost in morale.

I'm also mega happy about the fact that I have evenings & weekends off again so I can spend time with family & friends. I wish this could have came early on in the summer so I wouldn't have missed out on so much but I'll take it. Plus, Fall is here, the air is cooler and the leaves are changing & I have many fall recipes on the way!

Last night I made an AMAZING lasagna inspired by a recipe I found on AllRecipes. It was delish. I'll post pics & stuff soon! :)

Long Time, No Talk!

Well hello everyone!
I'm in the mentality right now where I only blog when I have something interesting to say and since the last time we spoke, I still haven't broken out of that awful rut! Something may look up for me in the very near future, but it's not for sure, so I'm not going to jinx it by saying anything right now.

HOWEVER, we have a new little addition to our family!
Meet "Minni" :)!
If she's not a rut breaker, I don't know what is.

We got her yesterday on September 14th, 2012. :)

Ha! I love that last one. Rawr!

Anyway, Minni is definitely a girl after my own heart!
I've never been a huge cat person but when there is a kitty who likes to cuddle, that's the kitten for me! And boy does this one snuggle! She snuggles hard!
This morning, she crawled up my shirt and fell asleep. Ha!

Anyway, that's my update. Maybe I'll have more exciting news for you tomorrow or something.
