Happy Birthday :)

I’d like to wish my Mommy a very Happy Birthday today! She is 36 today I believe 😉 I wish I could be there to celebrate with you today but I hope we can make up for it this weekend. I love you!

Family Visit

Justin and I ventured to Brevard this Friday evening. We got to see everyone but Mike this time. The visit was short because we had to leave around 4 on Saturday but still great. We got to see Walker. He is getting so big! Justin should be posting new pictures soon. Walker can hold his head up now and is enjoying looking around at everything. I sure wish we all could have visited longer. It’s only about a month a way until we will see each other again for Thanksgiving.

Justin and I also dog sat from Saturday evening to Sunday afternoon. It was Jack and Cary’s dog (lab/husky mix). He is adorable and his name is Charlie. Java really enjoyed having the exercise and a friend.

Get Back Here!

Last night Justin and I let the cats out of the basement for a little while. They have been down there since I think Saturday. Justin had to do some light sanding before applying the last coat of poly on our floors. The boys went straight to our bedroom and Apache got in the window and Pixel on my dresser. When Justin was ready to start the poly I went to gather the cats to put them back in the basement. I found Pixel right away and put him downstairs. I then tried to find Apache. We both looked everywhere! He was nowhere to be found. Then I heard a really faint meow and thought maybe he had gotten into our air ducts. Then I went back to the window where he was and saw that the screen was no longer there and the window was wide open. We ran to the front door to go try to find him and he was standing right by the door. We thought all was good. Then he turned around and hopped over the wall and headed back to the window. We thought he was going to jump back in but instead he made a turn to go to the backyard. For those that don’t know, Apache is the all black cat and it was dark out so that made it really hard to find him. Luckily we were able to find him and grab him but not before giving both mom and dad a heart attack.

Lunch

Today my mom and Kelly have the day off for Fall break and they are coming to Boiling Springs to eat lunch with Justin and I. I’m excited that I can take the afternoon off and just spend it with them. I haven’t seen them in awhile and they’ve never been to Italian Garden so I think that’s where we will go.

Does anyone know anything about what’s going to replace Uptown Cafe in BS? Krispy Kreme maybe? hehe

I wish I could open up a chain of that or better yet Dunkin Donuts right by the hotel. That would be a real hit. Oh well….I’ll keep dreamin haha. Happy Weekend everyone!

Good Prognosis

We found out that Java has…um….how to spell it…disconjunctivitis…yeah…something like that, in her eye. Dr. Dino as many call him, gave us drops to put in her eye 3 times a day. Luckily he said there were no scratches on her cornea. It was cool how he was able to tell that. He took some dye and put it in her eye and then flashed his light on her eye to look for the dye to fill in any scratches. Another cool thing is that he didn’t charge us for the office visit. He just charged us for the drops and for some more heartworm pills. Boy did that save our wallet. I’m hoping her eye will be better by the weekend so we can try taking her swimming again.

Poor Baby :(

Well, Java seems to slowly be passing the collar but yesterday after work we noticed that her right eye is infected. Poor thing, I just wanted to make it all better for her. She looked miserable yet in her own Java way was trying to be happy and make her parents proud. Today we have an appointment to see Dr. Nicopoulus at 3pm for him to check her out. Pray that she can be healed quickly and that we won’t have to take out a second mortgage after getting the bill hehe.

new one…

Yesterday when I got home from work I was getting Java to let her go out and noticed she wasn’t wearing her collar. I looked in her crate and all I saw was the plastic clasp and the leash ring. Yes…Java ate her collar! I was worried like any dog mom would be but she has been acting like normal and eating, drinking, and even pooping. We have yet to see anything red come out but hope this afternoon it will all be better. I called the vet this morning and he said “not another foreign body in your pet.” He remembers us well from when Pixel had to have his surgery to remove some plastic from his intestines. Let’s hope that Java can pass the fabric and won’t have to have surgery. Mom and Dad’s wallet isn’t that big.

Happy Anniversary :)

Yep, you’ve guessed it, today it our very 1st Anniversary. It has been a really good day! Church was awesome! When we left I really felt as if we had all truly worshipped. We went to Fatz for lunch to celebrate and then back to church for the night service and Marissa’s baby shower. I really can’t believe this first year has gone so fast. It makes me think about the next years at how much faster they will go by. I will try not to be mushy because I know Justin doesn’t really like it but he is so special to me. I’m so glad God thought I was worthy enough to have him in my life. I love him so much! I look forward to each new day I get to spend with him. Happy Anniversary Honey!
