Life lately in nine pictures

Hey there and happy Wednesday! I hope everyone is having a great week thus far. Mine has been good and fairly productive on the school front! I should be doing school work right now, though… ha. Soo, I’ll make this post quick 🙂

Here are nine snapshots of my life lately!

Smith Family

1. My brother has a lot of pets. I was on Instagram recently and was cracking up when I came across this picture that my brother posted of his wife and their pets (I added in all their names and the arrows). I feel like they acquire a new dog or cat every few months, haha! I think my brother is such an animal lover because we both grew up always having animals. There was literally never a time where we didn’t own at least a few pets. We had hamsters (mine had babies!!), turtles, lizards, frogs, fish, birds, dogs, and cats.

I especially loved my hamster, Minnie. When she died, my parents buried her in our front yard (I’m not sure why?!) and my brother and I dug her up a few days later because I missed her. We were a little bit weird 😉

Fall decorating and family time

Ahhh, what a weekend! Jimmy and I had my family over on Saturday for a little fall party. It was really nice to spend time with them! I know I mention this a lot, but I miss my family so much.

Before I moved out, I was extremely close with my family. We spent most of our time together when I wasn’t at school (because my parents have a home-based business), and now I mostly see them for a few minutes at church. It’s hard living far apart now. It definitely makes me cherish every single moment I get to spend with them!

Anyways, Hannah planned the party and it included games, coloring pages, and a full dinner and dessert menu. I think she would make a great event organizer one day, haha.
