The cats and a card

What's a blog post without pics of my brats :) I finally got a picture of Tupac doing the "truck-driver". When we are just hanging out in the evenings, Tupac will go chill in the cat toy and look so cute chillin out. Got this pic the other day...precious babies sleeping!

I pulled out my cardmaking supplies and Nikki decided to help out...play with ribbon :)

This is the card I came up with after getting inspiration from the card on pg. 108 of the new book. I thought I had the butterfly stamp set but then remembered that I had borrowed it from Bobbie and didn't have it anymore. I know that she would have gladly let me borrow it again but I went ahead and just used one that would work.

and I was playing around with the camera on my phone and snapped this pic in negative effect...random....but it looked cool so i will share.

School starts in a month!!!AAAAHHH! I think I'm ready but I just know that it's going to be hard!

I think I need a bigger Kitty bed...

Last weekend fun

Last weekend Lincoln and I went to Transformers 3 at the IMAX theatre in Jordan Commons. It was a really fun experience....IMAX screen, 3D, and a good action movie. We ate dinner at Texas Roadhouse...super yummy. Their rolls are amazing!

gap savings

I had the day off today so Wendy and I decided to go to the mall for something to do...
This is where I stumbled across a SALE at Gap. I had a $10 gift certificate so decided to look around. The sale was 50% off the marked down price. I walked out of there with a summer dress, a skirt, and two tanktops for $37! We took a look at the original price (if I would have bought these items not on sale)---$180. That's a $143 savings!
What a nice day to go to the mall :)

crazy animals

Before I tell you about the kitties, here is what Jerrica and I made the other day. We went to Hobby Lobby--after Emily told me about buying her bows there I decided I wanted to check it out. What a wonderful store! We were looking for some cute summer craft that we could make that afternoon. This was really simple to make; everything was a sticker and then just tie the bow.
Now for the crazy animals! I have noticed I call them animals more often than I call them my babies ha ha! They drive me nuts sometimes...right now I'm counting down the hours till they take their nap :)
While doing some card making I look up to see Tupac exploring. A couple days ago I walked in to find all my ribbon had been unrolled...this day he just wanted to see what was in the little jars.

Lincoln's Grandma Anne bought me this cute little fountain/waterfall thing. I love it! and the cats do too. She wrote on the little card that she thought the cats would think it was neat and they sure did! Every once-in-awhile I will put it on the ground so they can check it out. The vet told me that cats like fresh water and that they even make cat water dishes as these fountain/waterfall things because the cats will drink more water. Tupac drinks from the top really good but Nikki is curious as to where the water is going so she will put her little paw inside and swat the water.

This is what happens when you leave a cup of water sitting on the floor :) You can't do anything without them wanting to get in it.

The saying "curiousity killed the cat" is so very true! I'm finding this to be true more and more every day. We keep our closet doors shut and as soon as we open them, the cats come running. When you open the cupboards in the kitchen, they come running. When you flush the toilet, they come running! aah I can't wait for fat lazy cats that sleep all day :) Until then, I will post pics of all the funny stuff my crazy animals do.

Past Couple of Weekends

I thought I would update on what we have been up to the last couple of weeks. The babies are getting big! They are still kittens but just not as small and fuzzy. ha ha. Nikki got sick about a week ago...took her to the vet, got some fluids and antibiotics. She has been 100% herself ever since. Yay! I was worried. They have a vet appointment tomorrow morning to get their boosters.
My mom asked me to make some graduation cards for her. This is what I made up...

Lincoln got home from Texas after three weeks. I was excited to see him! We went on a shopping spree a couple days after he got home. He needed some new summer clothes and I didn't mind shopping for some clothes too :) This is Lincoln standing in a tunnel thing at the mall. It imitates the winds of a hurricane.

While shopping I asked Lincoln if I could dress him up. ha ha He was a trooper and I got him into Gap clothes! I bought the kahkis...we will see if he wears them but I just loved them ;) This pick is him playing the part. Thanks baby for your humor!

Then this memorial weekend we went to Mesquite! It was so much fun...laying out at the pool, gambling (love the craps tables), bowling, arcades, eating out, chillin in the hotel room. I had so much fun! We haven't had a vacation like that for awhile and we both enjoyed it so much. We will have to save up to go play again.

And I love this pic---Lincoln and Tupac chillin at home.

This summer has been a blast so far (besides the weather) and I can't wait for all our next adventures!

The adventure today

I took the babies to the vet today. I warned them in the morning that today would not be very fun :) They didn't seem to care...until we got there and their temperature was being checked ha ha. They had ear mites but we got them taken care of. Poor babies. No wonder Tupac itched his ears a lot. They got some good shots that helped them sleep ALL day. We got home around eleven and they went to sleep on my lap. When I went to work at three they were still sleeping. This is baby Nikki--too precious!
They are running around being crazy kittens again! Gotta love their energy.

I pick Lincoln up on Friday! It has been a long three weeks and I can't wait to see him! He has never seen the kitties so I'm excited for him to meet them.
