Big kids and our baby

So now that Tyler and I have a cute apartment. We decided to add to our little ‘family’. We now own a red Siamese fighter (Beta) fish named Themba. 

We have (well I have) adopted a chipmunk named Theodore, a few squirrels that eat the food I leave out for Teddy and a bunch of bugs that eat the plants I’m desperately trying to grow. But life is good in our little slice of heaven.

See my 'plants' (or what left of them on the left)

Seriously?! How cute is this little guy!

October 2013 brought along with it a great adventure! I started a new job, working at Falk Legal Group as an administrative assistant. Our school newspaper attends an annual convention in various cities. This year it was in New Orleans, Louisiana and I got to go!

There was quite a few of us MATC Times staff that attended. Reporters, photographers and our business intern who sold all the ads that helps to fund the paper. It was really interesting hanging out as a group. The photographers were obsessed with lightening and taking the perfect picture (so even though I’m an amateur I fit in well). A good time was had by all (as you can see from the pictures.
