Our fluffy child!

Update on our Isis. She is a very curious kitty and loves to be where we are. This morning Dallas got up @ 530am for work. She was running up and down the stairs, then back and forth back and forth. When one of us leaves she cries at the door til the other yells down to her and then she comes right up to find us. I swear she talks to us, she has the funniest meows. She plays with everything, even things that are inanimate and of no concern to anyone but her. Her favorite toy is paper! And we love playing with it with her! She is a riot. The other day she got so excited over the paper she was actually doing forward rolls! I love her to pieces and we are so happy to have gotten her.

New Addition to our Family!



Well Im pretty excited. Our little family is growing! Today we bought our first pet. She is a siamese kitten and her name is Isis. I think the name suits her as she has the blue-est eyes ever, "icey". Isis was a goddess in Ancient Egyptian religious beliefs, whose worship was adopted by other ancient cultures such as Rome. She was worshipped as the ideal mother and wife, patron of nature and magic.The goddess Isis was the first daughter of Geb, god of the Earth, and Nut, the goddess of the Overarching Sky, and was born on the fourth intercalary day.Isis also is known as the goddess of simplicity, from whom all beginnings arose, and was the Lady of bread, of beer, and of green fields. In later myths, Ancient Egyptians believed that the Nile River flooded every year because of her tears of sorrow for her dead husband, Osiris, relived each year in rituals. The worship of Isis eventually spread throughout the Graeco-Roman world, continuing until the eventual abandonment of paganism in the Christian era.


Ok so I thought that was pretty interesting. She sure is quite the curious kitten! She is 5 months old and adjusting quite well. I brought her home and showed her straight to her kitty litter box. Then I decided we would walk through each room. Well she just loved our upstairs bathroom. Im not sure why but just about 5 minutes ago I found her sprawled out on the floor up there. But when we first entered she went right for the toilet. Pretty funny her paws kept slipping on the toilet seat and then she decided she wanted to climb some more thats when she almost fell in because she used the lid to boost her up and that didnt work out so well seeing that it she closed the lid and it pulled her down with it!


I was cleaning the kitchen and she wanted to be part of it all. In the dish washer, in the cabinets, on the laundry, anywhere I was, there she was! I love her already! Im very excited! She also reminds me of Snicky B. And I do miss her very much, so this is going to help. Not to mention I have been dying for a pet! Love to all!

What we have been up to...

Dallas and I are definately enjoying the company of eachother and it feels great to finally be together, instead of on the phone all the time!

I started my job at the University of Utah hospital and I am enjoying it VERY much! The people and the hospital are amazing! Im going to be working the next 9 days and then I will be starting my normal shift of four 10 hour shifts friday-monday!

Dallas is also keeping busy at Fed Ex and is definately tired by the time Friday rolls around. He goes to bed around 8pm and gets up around 130am! (sunday-thursday) The good thing about his shift is that he is usually out around noon.

We are looking into getting a puppy!! Im really hoping everything works out. One of the radiology students at my job has a lab who hopefully had her lab puppies over the weekend, I told her to count us in for one of the puppers!

As for the new vehicles, they are amazing and we are enjoying those as well!!

All is well on the West coast.. love to all!

Salt Lake City or Bust!

Today is the day I move to Salt Lake City, Utah! It is very exciting to be taking on a new adventure. It will be weird at first seeing that I was born and raised in Connecticut and I will always be a Connecticut girl at heart. I am ready for the move and ready to be with Dallas all the time. I will miss my family and friends so much! But we will be back to visit and our door is always open to family and friends! So make sure you all visit!

Here are a few pictures from saying goodbye!

Lake George, New York (9/4-9/7)

This past weekend my family headed to Lake George, New York for the annual Adirondack Nationals Car show. Our family and friends from all over attend this event and we have a blast every year. Even though it means that summer is coming to an end and fall is here. It sure didn't feel like that when we were roasting in 97 degree weather! The long weekend was eventful but nothing will top the fact that my dad locked the BMW keys in the trunk of the car and we have to drive half way home to meet a friend to give us the keys to drive all the way back to Lake George to get them out of the trunk.... and Triple AAA couldnt get the doors unlocked. Unreal but a life lesson for sure.


While I was in Lake George, Dallas met up with his good friend Frankie and they went Bow hunting in the mountains... they didnt kill anything... THANK GOD!
