Say hello to our little friend...
...A new kitty! The stork brought her by this Wednesday. She is approximately 2 pounds and 9 weeks old. She went two days without a name, and we have finally settled on "Gizzy." She looks like Gizmo, so although the name is not shortened per se, we shall call her Gizzy. Smokey and Gizzy.
Though I realize this is our first blog, and I want y'all to keep coming back, the reason why we got a new little one is because we had to put Cali down this past July. It was actually the morning of our 3rd wedding anniversary that we realized she had a tumor with no hope of corrective surgery. We made the decision that day, and she passed on that afternoon. She was only 5. I think Smokey loved having full rule of the house for a couple of months, but we want to keep Cali's spirit alive with a new Himalayan.
Back to the good stuff...So we brought her home just to find out the obvious--Smokey was going to win the gold in the hissing Olympics. He was not as excited as we were. We have been separating them this entire time in two rooms, and I'm not sure when he is going to calm himself. For punishment, the next time we post Smokey is when he befriends Gizzy. Now that we have this up and rolling, tune in for kitty updates.
As for Brad and myself...I am still working at Gettys as a designer. I have obtained all of my credentials, and have been there almost 2 years. Brad is still working on his financial business and staying busy all hours of the day. We have lived in our condo for 2.5 years now and are loving it. Just minutes from the beach and a perfect daily weather forecast, we couldn't have asked for more!
I will post more pictures of our latest vacation in Solvang, CA. Welcome to the jungle. Stay tuned!
