Not-so-lazy sunday afternoon

First of all, I want to say thanks to all my new followers! Seriously guys, I really appreciate it! When I first started this blog I thought no one would read it because... well... I guess because I know what's going on in my life and I don't find it too interesting! But... I'm glad you guys do! So thank youuuuu! 

This weekend has been a busy one. My step-dad left for two years (he's in the military) in Tennessee, so mom and I have been busy trying to rid the house of "man-smell" and making the house all girly. Tonight Aric and I are going to visit my friend Preston who is a total sweetheart and is currently battling tissue cancer in his shoulder. (He's only 17!) He's so brave and has a great attitude about it all, I'm so proud of him! Anyway, we're bringing him cookies and brownies (I'm going to post my strawberry cookie recipe tomorrow for you guys! Its yum to the max, I promise!) and going to hang out with him and watch Miss America. I'm so excited. I love Preston so much, he's probably the closest thing I've ever had to a brother, and Aric and I call him our son haha. 

In other news, I'm going to post later tonight about things that I collect because... I love to know what other people collect, so I'm going to tell you guys what I do! (I didn't realize until I sat down and thought about it how much I collect.) Annnnnd I SHOULD have a tutorial up by the end of the week! I have to fix my sewing machine... sad face. 

Anyway, have some cute pictures of my kitties!!!

Bean/Abigail/Appa, the cat love of my life. Oh and my pretty new-ish hoop I have yet to name. DOESN'T MY HAIR LOOK LONG???? okay... I know you guys haven't really known me for too long, but... my hair hasn't been past my jaw in about 3 years.

Daniel goes a little nuts when he plays...

I have yet to post a picture of my pretty little Emily, I'll try to do that soon!

How has your weekend been lovelies??
