A shot of the Shocker Maniacs in the student section. They are more fired up this year than usual and have been really fun to watch each game. The crowd here is definitely the "6th man" that makes a difference to this basketball team! Go Shox!

Don't be fooled! This is not a picture of nothing! This is proof that a monster catfish lives in my grandparents' pond! It was so nice again today that I took my BFF Mindy out to the Pondhouse for some exploring and hot-tubbing. When it was starting to get dark out we walked out onto the dock (same location as yesterday's photo). I glanced down and saw the most gigantic catfish I've ever seen in my life, and here is the picture I got of it. Mindy and I stared at it and couldn't believe what we were seeing. I ran inside to get a high-powered flashlight but when I came back Mindy said the fish had just kind of suck down below sight and swam toward the middle of the pond. I promise that he is there on the right/middle side of this picture, but I don't have the technology to make it any clearer. If you look closely you can see a beam of the dock on the bottom left side, so you know it's not just a blank picture. But I'm not sure I'll ever be able to prove what we saw.

This week has been absolutely gorgeous weather for Kansas, so we decided to take full advantage of it today. OG, Mitch, Ken, and Jason all went golfing while Jennifer, Amy, and I took the kids out to the Pondhouse for some outdoor fun. They had a blast feeding the fish, climbing trees, playing soccer, and collecting pine cones to make bird feeders. It was one of those really perfect days that come along so rarely anymore. It reminded me to be thankful for every blessing that I have in my life and to make time for days like this.

This year for Thanksgiving my family all went down to Texas, but OG and I couldn't take off work, so we had the opportunity to committ our full attention to OG's family. It was a wonderful, relaxing way to spend our first major married holiday. Natalie and Mitch (and Oscar) got to come, so OG's mom had all 3 of her kids in town for the first time in quite a few years! She was a little excited!

This week has turned into a showcase for all of our little furry babies. Natalie and Mitch are in town for Thanksgiving and, of course, they couldn't leave Oscar behind! He loves being around the kids, but after a long day in the car, he was being a total Mama's Boy. He came screaming through the house until he found mom and was a little whiny mess acting like his paw was hurt. Five minutes later he was running around again, but we did have a chance to catch this pathetic display of "I know I'm cute so I'm going to milk it for all it's worth". Who can resist?

The wait is over! I have been obsessing over the opening of New Moon for months, and today we finally saw it! It was so good! I love when a director actually sticks to the book! If you aren't on the Twilight bandwagon, you are missing out! And yes, I did make OG watch Twilight last night and take me to New Moon today!

Time for another Wichita favorite! OG and I have each gained about 10 pounds since the wedding, and we can safely say that 99% of that is due to this place: The Donut Whole. If you love donuts, do not miss this place! They have live music and are open 24 hours a day. Their best flavors? Maple Bacon, Blueberry Pancake, Rootbeer Float, and Fruity Pebble-covered Citrus Crunch!

Sooo...I am not the most organized person on Earth, and moving is not a strength of mine. However, eventually I get things done! It's not even close to all of them, but I finally hung up some of my earrings after 4 months of marriage! My mom got me this as a decoration for my apartment and I decided it was a fun and different way to display and organize all of my earrings!

So I have already posted an ode to the Sugar Sisters once, but we just can't get enough! And it's not just the cupcakes! It's the 5 cheese mac 'n cheese, the fried KT Cristo sandwich, the sausage, feta, and scallion quiche, and the homemade bierocks too! If you haven't tried it yet, you are missing out!
