Thankful

for my favorite person.

The Big 2-8

Not for me, though! I'm staying 27 for awhile. But Chris hit the 2-8 mark a couple of weeks ago. We celebrated with a impromptu surprise party (thanks Ry and Jesse for making it over for impromptu red velvet cake!), Chris' favorite beer (which I had to hide behind Costco-sized bags of spinach and carrots in the fridge), Mexican-style appetizers, and fun conversation. Good times. The next day we went to Redlands to celebrate Chris' birthday, as well as his dad's and grandpa's, which are all within two weeks of each other. I won't promise those pictures will be up anytime soon (I've learned my lesson with picture promises), but hopefully over the upcoming Thanksgiving break I'll have some free time to sort and organize and upload some photos.

Happy birthday, babe! I love your 28-year-old hotness!

Curiosity soaked the cat.

So our cats really like water. I think I've established this before.

Today, I was taking a shower. And as usual, Jack had snuck in the bathroom and was trying to play with the water pooling in the tub. Now generally, he doesn't actually play in the tub when the shower head is on. Generally. He'll totally jump in occasionally.)

Jack decided today that he needed some cuddling, like right that second. I happened to be trying to shave my legs. And apparently my raised knee looked like a perfect step in the direction of getting closer to my face for cuddling.

So Jack jumped.

And he didn't even mind that he was getting wet, or that I had to grab his little cat behind with my shaving cream filled hand to keep him from slipping off. He just stared at me with those half-closed eyes, which everyone knows is the universal cat sign for "this is just the greatest moment of my life."

Weirdo.

Post wedding shoot snuggle on the couch. The laptop whirled as it backed up all our discs. And Chris was too tired to protest the taking of another picture.
