Pumpkins, Kitty!, and the Little Things

I haven't been doing a very good job at updating this blog lately. But, I am going to get back to it. I need to stay focused on the good parts of my day instead of letting the bad stuff get me down. "In this world you will have trouble, but take heart! I have overcome the world." John 16:33.

Last weekend we have the pumpkin carving competition. Me and Merissa did one together. I love carving pumpkins! Coming up with an idea, digging out the slimy guts, and making your creation come to life. We also decided to try to cook our seeds back in our appartment. We found directions online that told us to cook them for 25 minutes at 400 stirring every 10 miutes. Well, they were wrong. We stirred them after 10 minutes and after about 15 minutes they were all burnt to a crisp! It smelled horrible and smoke came out of our oven when I checked them. They were all black as can be! We laughed so hard!





Brittany's family was here last weekend, her brother, sisters, parents, and her cousin.The girls got up and went for a run Saturday morning and came back with a little kitty! They found her stuck in a tree and rescued her. So we had a little friend in our appartment all day Saturday. She was so cute. I played with her all morning before my soccer game.

 We named her Slippers because of her white paws.


We kept her in the bathtub when we all left so she wouldn't get into trouble in our appartment. They brought her back to the barn near the tree Saturday night. We were all so sad to see her go.

This week was a pretty chill week. We won our soccer game on Tuesday, had a pool session for practice on Wednesday, I didn't have any classes on Thursday, and Today is the first day of parents weekend which although is sad for me because my family isn't coming because they scheduled us an away game this weekend about 4 hours away also makes me happy to see everyone else with their families AND there are cookies in the campus center that I've been helping myself to :) Mmmmm I LOVE cookies.

So far, I don't have any big plans for the weekend, but it sounds like a hot tub may have to be occupied later tonight :)

LOVE
