New Kitten and catching up...

So... since James and I want to wait a while before we start reproducing, and filling this world with them most rambunctious and dramatic children it's ever seen.... We decided to adopt another cat. My friend Cara just couldn't take care of her kitten anymore, and I have been working on James to let us get another one for a long time, he said it was ok for us to adopt him. He's part Siamese, and his name is Fiero Jesus Naylor (the hispanic pronunciation Hay-sus). Fiero in spanish means FEROCIOUS. And here he is!!






I'm so in love with him!! He and my cat Faith have been interesting to watch. Faith is use to other cats being around so she extremely curious of him. But Fiero is use to being an only child, so there's been a lot of growling and hissing in my house lately. But thank goodness no real fights. We took Fiero into our bedroom last night to see how he'd do with sleeping with us. Oh he got REALLY comfortable!! He would lay on our heads our necks, our back, or right in between James and I. And his purr is so LOUD!!!! But at least we know he's getting much more comfortable with us, and he has now adopted us as well.


Thanksgiving was wonderful this year. It's especialy nice because my family celebrates the day before on Wednesday. Anyone is welcome to come to it, we do a big buffet style dinner and we all find spots in the living room, and we have a movie going, and we talk and laugh and we're loud and fun, we drink all different kinds of wine, soda, juices.... It's amazingly fun.
Then on Thanksgiving, we went over to James' parents house, and all his siblings came over. All except Mike, cuz they went to his wife's family's in Highland, and then obviously Teresa wasn't able to come since she lives in Texas. We all ate in the kitchen/dinning room. Dawna made the turkey and it was amazing!! It had garlic cooked right into it, and I'm obsessed with garlic, I love it!!! It was fun with all the kids there, I love all my nieces and nephews so much.

Now it's December and that means Christmas.... This year my family decided to make gifts for everyone this year. I love when we do that. It's fun to see what everyone comes up with. And James' family draws names as to who buys gifts for what family. I also had my King Family Christmas Party.... I don't know how I should approach talking about this....

Those who are close to me, know that I'm NOT close to this side of my family. It's not because I don't like them, I've just never felt apart of the family. My parents divorced before I was two, I have no solid GOOD memories of him until I was about 12. To me the Christmas Party was always something I just HAD to go to. I use to try getting along with my cousins and playing with them, but something always happened and it would be blamed all on me or my family. I shouldn't say that everyone on that side of my family was/is uninviting.... honestly it's only one members family that has always rubbed our family wrong. I won't get into it, but I find it sad that one person, or one family can make something that's suppose to be so fun for everyone make me not want to go to the party the last 4 years.... Despite the very awkwardness, and the separation of my family from... well everyone... I did enjoy myself. It's always great when I get to see my sisters all at once. Even though Alexis got stuck at work. Who knows, maybe someday I'll finally feel relaxed and welcome with my own family.

more wedding

So here are some more photo's from the wedding. My photographer captured evry moment so beautifuly!!

THE WEDDING!!!

So here are some pics from th wedding by my photographer Stephen Phung. I'm on my way to work so I'll post more when I have time!!

Prop 8...

OK I'm starting off with a disclaimer... I know a lot of the people who look at this blog are conservative, very right wing republican feeling. Well if you know me you know I am NOT!! So if you're going to read this blog and judge me, and leave a comment being rude I'd much rather you just stop reading now. But if you'd like to prove you're not as ignorant as many people in this nation are go a head and read on, and have an open mind and heart.


So in California, Proposition 8 passed...barely. For those of you who are too busy to know what Proposition 8 is it's a bill that would BAN gay marriage in California, even after it was already passed. That's like telling a child he can have cake before dinner, give him a bite then saying never mind here's your broccoli. This country was based on equal rights to all men and women. This bill is targeting a specific group of people, it's going against human rights.

For those of you sitting there saying God said marriage should be between a woman and a man, well God has no say in this matter. That's why we have separation between church and state!!! Marriage is a legal matter now, you can't go in front of a priest, or a bishop or a minister and go through a ceremony and have all the benefits of a married couple. You have to go to the state and get a license, if you don't believe gays are married in the eyes of God after that, then that's your deal, to you they aren't married, but who are we to revoke that right from them? It also pisses me off that people say gay marriage is making a mockery of heterosexual marriages. Well obviously your marriage isn't very good if SOMEONE ELSE'S marriage is ruining yours. Whether they are gay or straight no one can ruin the sanctity of your marriage except you.

I mean how would you feel if you just got married to the one person you've ever felt clost to, you've felt like your true self with, someone who's seen you at your best and worse and still loves you, and then someone comes in and says that's not allowed. You can't be with that person, you are shameful in God's eyes?? I don't know about you, but the Jesus Christ I know and love, accepted everyone, and loved everyone as his children. I'm not saying you have to think the same as me, but how can you say you're Christ like when you sit and judge others for how they live? And I know you'll just bible bash back at me and tell me scriptures and passages that show Christ didn't' agree with Gay's, but also homosexual practices were very common in that day and age, with Kings, princes, soldiers, and even religious leaders (please don't take that as me saying Jesus was gay it's a general reference).

And it's honestly time to wake up people. The GAYS AIN'T GOIN' ANY WHERE!!!! The are here and they are proud, and they are people too. Closing your eyes and ignoring them isnt' going to make them go away. Why are you denying their right as human beings!?!? The right to visit their loved ones in the hospital after a terrible accident, or if they are battling cancer, the right to executor of their lovers will, how does them receiving these basic human rights hurt you???

I have many friends and family that I care so deeply about that this proposition hurts. I know many of you are in Utah and don't have a say in what happened with this proposition, but it would be so nice if you stopped spreading the hate. Worry about yourself and not others, I thought we all graduated??

So here are some pictures from the wedding. My dear Friend Frances took these. Since it's going to be a while until I get the real ones, I figure these will have to do.

Honeymoon!!

So these are pictures from our Honeymoon. We went to Puerto Rico, and it was amazing. My dad Ron got us a room at the Ritz Carlton and they took very good care of us.

We had drinks at his bar... for free!

The streets of Old San Juan

James called this San Juan's Boner

We loved this statue, it's cooler in person

The cats are rounded up, spayed, neutered, and given shots, so that they

can keep the rats under control, and they are very sweet.

These two kept following me

this one just wanted to play

On the pier where the ocean would spray over the edge

This fountain would have been better if it was on.

Cathedral of the Princess

Another cool statue

Another kitty

The old San Juan Fort

A lookout on the fort wall...
