Father's Day

Although, Joe and I are not parents yet we decided to celebrate our future parenthood this year. On Mother's Day, Joe made me an amazing breakfast for dinner. And boy was it good. However, I was feeling a bit under the weather on Father's Day so we postponed our celebration. The week after Father's Day, I was finally able to make Joe his amazing gift. BACON ROSES! Sounds amazing right?! Well they are, however, they kind of are a pain in the butt trying to make them and keep them standing up on a tray. Also, if you are going to try and make BACON ROSES I suggest to not put three slices of bacon together... the bacon does not cook all the way through with that thick of a rose. Another suggestion, find a fake flower bouquet that had many flowers so you can have more BACON ROSES than I did. Anyway, here is the pictures of the final project.

How yummy do these look?! Also, now you understand when I say
get a bigger bouquet. I should have been more creative with this
But they don't look too bad. Right?

Joe was so excited to eat these. Probably the best flowers he has ever gotten. ;)  

A Cat Named Ted

A while back, I saw a kitten sitting in the hole of a wall in our apartment complex and thought that it looked super cute. Then, as fate would have it, after a fun date night with Joe we saw the same little kitten sitting on the stairs leading to our apartment. Being the mean and scary people we are, the poor little kitty was scared away by our presence. So as Joe watched where the kitten was hiding, I ran upstairs to put milk in a bowl to feed our new friend.
As you can see kitty really liked the milk. After standing outside
for a while watching the kitty eat, Joe decided to name him
Teodoro or Ted for short if it was a boy. I decided to
name her Sophia if it was a girl.
However, Ted was not very good at taking pictures. :)

After that first night of feeding the kitty, I was hooked. I wanted so badly to keep cute little Ted and have him/her be our very first pet. But alas, it was not meant to be. Unfortunately, our apartment complex makes pet owners pay more for rent. :( However, the next few nights we sure had fun feeding our little guy. Although with all the time that we spent caring for Ted we never actually found out if he really was a boy or girl. The world may never know. Funny. Anyway so here are some more pictures of our fun adventures.
