Just a brief note to let you all know that we are in our new house! It is all very exciting, but we have a ton of stuff left to do. Mostly finding places for all the little pictures, candles and basically junk that I have sitting around everywhere. The house is just darling and coming along nicely. Soon and very soon ("we are going to see the King") we will be primed and ready for visitors, so dust off those suitcases and get ready for a trip to the Big Easy. We are in an amazing neighborhood. Everyone is so friendly and welcoming; they've all been trying to feed us and help out with anything we need, so it's nice to know we're in an actual community. On a completely different note, the little kitten that we had been taking care of (the one that ran off while we were in Texas) came back around on Tuesday night, which just happened to be the first night that Nashville was supposed to get below freezing. Well, the little miss was crying outside the door and I just didn't have the heart to leave her out there. So, I brought her in, stuck her in the bathroom and have now moved her with us to New Orleans. All that to say, we have a new kitten and her name is PJ (short for Princess Junior). She is absolutely precious and I will post more pictures of her soon. She is going in next week for a de-claw and spay, and then she'll be ready to join our little family, instead of being cooped up in a bedroom all the time. Let's see, what else am I forgetting? There's so much going on and so much to do, I'm sure I'm leaving something out. I will certainly get pics of the house up soon so you can all see where we are and I'll give a full report of the move and the house. As for now, just wanted you to all know that we're here and ready for guests.
