Christmas!

Well, it's that time of year again. This year we have done something different. We bought a real tree. Actually, I think it's our first Christmas tree ever as a a couple, ever! Not that I don't like getting in to the Christmas spirit, it's just that we've been so poor in the past to go out and get a tree, even a fake one. Then when I graduate we didn't have the room to put up a tree. Well, we've finally sprung for one this year. Our first Christmas tree in our new house.

Plus, in the picture was one of our house warming gifts, Sparkles. She is the little brown tabby/calico thing. The big brown and white cat squishing her is Paco. As you can tell they are best of buds. In the past they were almost too best of buds. Since she is so tiny I kind of missed her becoming a young lady and going in to heat. I just thought she was getting vocal. I only realized after her hormones revived Paco's libido from his neutering and I caught them hooked up. Not like Paco was going to be knocking her up it was a little shocking to see him violating my little girl. She didn't seem to mind, though. Overall, she is awesome and I totally adore her. I kind of surprised the husband when I told him we were picking her up but he chose her. I wanted her brother. As you can tell I am a sucker for brown tabbies. Plus, I've heard that calico cats are kind of cranky but she has turned out to be the best kitty! Just in case I forget and Happy Holidays!
