Last night we sat down and decided to make a Christmas cover.

Early afternoon is my favorite time. I open all the curtains and blinds. I turn on my favorite music a boil some water for tea. Kev comes home and dances with me like were at a formal, being silly as usual.

This picture was taken the first week I came up with Kev. It's a park right by our house, that most of the time is filled with sailboats and kayaks. It's hard to imagine that these glassy waters will soon be frozen over for the Winter. I don't think I've ever seen a lake frozen over, expect for in the movies...

One of my favorite memories here is the morning we went to the Shrewsbury Shuffle. Kev and I grabbed some Dunkin Donuts and ate breakfast a few feet from where I am standing in this picture.

A little bit of what life is like here on Wigwam Hill. Sometimes I think we could have gotten a place that was a lot less of a fixer upper, but I am loving our home more and more these days. My favorite memories so far include Saturday morning breakfasts with lots of light pouring in from the big windows in our kitchen, hot apple cider on the deck while taking in the crisp New England air, late night movies on the couch, pepper running down the stairs to greet us when we come home, and random jam sessions-I sing while Kev plays. I look forward to growing with our space as our time up here continues.

About a month ago, our newly engaged friends Justin and Angie asked us help them out with some pictures for their save the date invites. They picked a sunny Saturday morning, and we all drove down to a open wooded area that had a pretty stream and lots of trees with leaves changing colors. Kev played photographer while I helped out with poses and ambiance :)

It was a lot of fun spending the day outside with these two. Justin and Angie are some of the nicest, most down to earth peeps you'll met, and Kev and I were excited that they asked us to be a part of their special day. Here's a small preview.

Things have been pretty cute around here lately with the latest addition to Wigwam Hill. One crazy kitty with an untamable cowlick named Pepper Pots.

Pepper came into our lives after we saw her cute little mug on a craigslist add one Saturday morning. That night we were on our way to get her, and soon she was our newest, wildest room mate. 

Pepper was shy and quiet on her first night with us, and the next day it was like a switch flipped and she let her crazy out. She will run from one end of the house to the other, race you up the stairs, run across your laptop right when your in the middle of something, and tap your head at night when your sleeping. 

She also can be a sweet kitty though, and take naps with you, listen along while you play guitar,  or follow you around the house. She's not a snooty cat, which Kev and I were grateful for, but she has her sassy moments for sure. 

Welcome to your new home pepper, we hope you love us as much as we love you!

Looking at my previous post I realized that we've been in our new place for almost two in a half months now. We've put a lot of hard work into our little home for such a short amount of time, with more yet to come. So far Kev has built the big things like our bed and coffee table, while I took care of the cleaning and decorating. I'll get around to posting more pictures of that soon.

This Friday after work and school Kev and I headed over for some thai food at the small shopping center by our place. We got our usual pad Thai and green curry to share, and after filling our tummies full of spicy goodness we headed on home. Once we settled in Kev started playing All About That Bass, and I happily sang along while he took over the "ooo shoo wap wap!" backups.

After we surely made our neighbors sick of that song, Kev went downstairs to work on his not so secret project anymore, while I binged on Michael Buble music videos... is it Christmas yet?!?

Yep. Just another chill Friday night on Wigwam Hill.

Oh, and I included some pics of my most recent cooking victories, because they haven't all been so victorious.
