The days are speeding by too fast with Brandon and Alicia here! They've been busy and I've been spending a lot of time just chilling and getting through this nasty cold that I've had (thankfully, I'm at the tail-end of it now.)
Our treat for today was lunch at Black and Blue, a steak and seafood restaurant near us - an oasis on a cold, yucky day!
Brandon threatened to do me harm if I posted the next picture but I told him that if I pay, then I get to post. Ha! Manicure time for the three of us!
Meanwhile, at home the cats where doing their own sort of loving - Mr. Kitty actually let Bella lick his face a few times! I think he was so shocked by it that he didn't know quite what to do but it was a tender moment... for a moment! I think he's going to be pretty bored when the little kitty is gone!
Don't forget to check out the auction for Samaritan's Purse for Hurricane Sandy relief - I'm hoping we'll give a really nice size donation to them! The ebay listing of the My NYC Holiday album kit is HERE.
Gifts so far today ~

Have a gift-filled day!
Love the manicure picture and the ones of Mr Kitty and Bella.
