Beginning of October

First I'd like to make the observation that it's far too early for there to be snow on the mountains... stupid cold weather. After the storm that dropped the snow on the mountains, I made sure that Tucker remembered my desire to someday live someplace with a more mild climate. Doesn't necessarily have to be super hot or have no snow, but less snow and slightly warmer than what we get here would be nice.

Anywho, since I last posted, Tucker and I got ourselves our anniversary present to each other a little early. This was totally Tucker's idea too, there was no prompting or hinting on my part at all. We got a second guinea pig!!!! Now Chimi (the one we already had) has a friend: Changa. And to celebrate their namesake, we had chimichanga's the day after we got Changa. It took them a little while to get used to each other, but they get along really well now. I have suspicions that Chimi thinks Changa is a girl, mostly because he tends to purr when ever Changa walks by and... other events that have happened.... yeah. For clarification, they're both boys.









I also did Activity day today with the girls in my ward, and we made Chia pets out of panty hose. I originally got this idea from Lois while we were out on the East coast, so thanks Lois! The only hard part about this little project was driving around to find grass seed, finally went to Lowes and they had some, but yeah, only got it a couple hours before the activity was to take place, so I was beginning to think of other things we could do in place of the chia pets. In the end it worked out nicely, and the girls had a fun time making them.
