First blog in the new House

So this is officially the first blog post in our new house! I had to get a new laptop because mine decided to stop working and then we were waiting on internet and furniture, yes we didn’t have furniture for about 3 weeks so we were sitting on lawn chairs in our living room watching whatever we had on DVD. So now we have Internet AND furniture; we are totally living the good life

So we recently started to tile in front of our front door this past weekend, so pictures of the house will have to wait. But for those of you who are friends with me on FB know that we added a new member to the Brewer Family. Her name is Willow; she is an 8-week-old kitten. She was the runt of the little so she is really tiny especially when she is next to our other cat, Lilly.

We didn’t plan on getting another cat, but I couldn’t help it. She is just so darn cute! Today she had her first Vet appointment, she weighed only 1.5lbs, she is tiny!!! Lilly was scared of her at first, but now she wont leave the kitten alone for two seconds.

Not much on the home front right now other than trying to complete projects on our house with what seems to be a never ending list of “to do’s” so here are so pictures of our new kitty, Enjoy!

NOLA

So my best friend Jill and I flew to New Orleans for a girl’s weekend October 2^nd through the 5^th. This was the first time I have ever been on a plane in my entire life. I have never been to an Air Port either so this was quite the experience. Lucky for me Jill was super supportive and told me to cool my shit when it was needed. Which was only when we took off and landed, flying down to NOLA.

Once we finally got into the air I was ok, but the Jack and Coke helped calm my nerves. Jill took a nap but I was wound too tight to even consider taking a nap. We landed in New Orleans just after 1pm, and holy fish tank! The air port smelled so bad like a fish tank, I don’t know if its because we were so close to the water or what but it smelled so bad.

The airport was super hot and crowded, and it took forever to get our luggage from baggage claim. Once we got our bags we had to go rent a car, on a side note, next time we go back we will not be renting a car but that’s a long story. So after we rented a car we were off to the hotel. Of course not before we drove on the autobahn. I swear the speed limit sign was more of a suggestion, not one car was going 60mph. so Jill’s freaking out in the passenger seat while I’m trying to stay focused.

So we made it to the hotel around 4pm and put everything in the room and decided to take a walk and explore a little bit. We probably walked at least 3 miles Thursday night. We stopped at a restraint called Jax (I Think) and had Brisket Fries and Alligator popcorn. Yes we tried Alligator and I actually liked it.

We were on our way back to the hotel and this giant rat ran in front of us and when I say giant I mean the size of a small cat. This sucker was huge!

So after we got back to the hotel we decided that it would be a good idea to swim and then go to the casino across the street. So we swam until about 10pm and then got ready and went to the casino. We sat at the bar and drank Hurricane after Hurricane, and the thing with those little suckers they sneak up on you. So I was a little drunk, to the point that when we went to leave I kept tell Jill I was ready to cross the street. We stood across the street for about 20 minutes because for whatever reason I didn’t want to cross the street. This was one of those you have to be there moments.

So the weekend flew by in a blur and we had a blast. From this homeless guy trying to put beads on us to trying my first beignets. It was a weekend to remember and I am so glad I got to experience it with my best friend.

More to come

So this post is just an update on some post that are to come, we have been crazy busy lately with the purchase of our new house and getting everything moved in and unpacked. I wont have Internet until the 8^th, so I am at my parent’s house right now checking emails and doing this post.

I will be doing a post right after this one about my trip to NOLA from the beginning of October that I never got around to actually writing.

A post with pictures of the house, and please don’t judge but we still don’t have furniture so we have been using lawn chairs for the past 2 weeks. Furniture is supposed to be delivered on the 8^th as well so we will see.

And we are doing some projects on the house that I will be doing a post on as well.

So stay tuned and hopefully ill be able to blog more in the new house!

Happy Monday everyone!
