Update!

It's been a while since I've posted, so I figured it was time for an update.

My mom stopped by on her way back from Charleston a couple weeks ago on Mother's Day. We took her out to a nice dinner and got to spend the evening with her before she left for home the next day. It was another short visit, but it was so nice to see her again and spend time with her - especially on Mother's Day.

Last weekend, thanks to Grandpa Welch, Eric, Jessi and I flew back to Canfield for a visit with Mom and Dad Welch. We arrived late Friday night and Maggie (their great dane) was so excited to see us. On Saturday we slept in a bit and had a relaxing morning before the three of us picked up Grandpa for lunch. We feasted on Jib-Jab (the best hot dog shop ever!) and had a nice visit. Later we went to see the new Indiana Jones movie. It was pretty good, but I was a little disappointed with the ending (I'm not a fan of alien movies). Sunday we went for a nice walk at a park, visited Angels for Animals, had a picnic lunch and then a nice bonfire at night. Before we knew it, Monday was here and it was time to fly back to Charlotte. I can't believe how fast the weekend went, but we had a really nice time.

We've had Madison with us now for a year. It was Memorial Day last year that we took her for her first visit to the vet. She is now growing from a kitten to a cat and she definitely has a unique personality. She makes me laugh every day. She loves to play with bottle caps. We started playing fetch with them, but she doesn't bring them all the way back anymore. She also loves twist-ties and the plastic seals from milk jugs. Needless to say we haven't had to spend a lot of money on toys for her. Recently, she has found some favorite spots for her naps. I hope you enjoy the pictures below:
