mr. owl out on the town...

this dude came in the mail for me on friday. naturally i decided to adopt him as my pet and name him cedric-- since we can't have a dog, cats are absolutely out of the question due to the fact that they make me want to die, and all my small pets tend to die horrible deaths.

anyways, a little about cedric. contrary to what his name would suggest, he is all the way from tokyo! for real. a world traveler at his young age. i am so proud!

{isn't he a handsome little hoot?}

well, clint surprised me with yet another treat from tokyo. SUSHI! okay, not exactly from tokyo. but hailing from japan. and that's close enough, right?

so i put on my duds and clint and i (really just i because i don't think clint is quite as fond of cedric as i am...)determined to take cedric out for his grand debut downtown-- at CRAVE sushi. what a tasty entrance into society, is it not!?

(sorry for the cheesy by-the-fridge picture. i didn't want my hair to wilt in the houston air.)

{this debut-of-cedric brought to you by banana republic boots, aussie hairspray, & diet coke.
all proud sponsors of becky's life}

well, the sushi was awesome. the company was divine (of course!). and to tell you the truth, we forgot all about mr. cedric the owl. but i think he enjoyed himself...

{and isn't he so handsome?! k, don't answer that. i get jealous easily. but he is, huh?}

{and this is my hair. post-traumatic-humidity disorder.}

after i tucked cederic safely away with the other dangly bangles in my closet, mister dreamy-but-difficult-while-being-photographed and i settled into the snuggle position on our huge red couch to enjoy kettlecorn, crystal lite, and modern family. on dvd. because we rock.

{i also created these little safe-for-the-couches cups for our movie watching adventures. stay tuned for the how-to!}

{so good. seriously.}

life is really great sometimes, isn't it? especially with a pet owl.
