Ring Day and Bird Update!

Bird update!:

Babies have been hatched. Well, 2 have. They are pink, little, slightly feathery creatures. They aren't very cute, but I love them! I felt like a proud parent when they hatched.

Mama Bird flew into our house last night. It took about 20 minutes to get her out. I was afraid she was going to have a heart attack or poop all over the house. But she didn't do either and eventually found her way back to the nest.

RING DAY!:

I got my Aggie Ring! It is gold, shiny, and beautiful! It's kind of a weird feeling having it. I have been waiting for this ring for a while now. I ordered it in January, and became more and more excited about getting it as the time went by. We had a countdown in the kitchen, and Friday, April 16th, was the "I get my Aggie Ring today!" day. My family came, and it was so great getting to share that day with them. My dad got to put the ring on my finger. I got a little teary eyed in that moment. Then there was the ring dunk party that Macie, Bailey and I had. There was lots of good food, wonderful friends, and gold shiny rings! We dunked them at 9. I did unsweet tea, Macie did Gatorade, and Bailey drank this sweetened lime tea. Drinking a whole pitcher of any drink as fast as you can is the worst idea ever!!!! I threw it up right after I was done. We all ended up getting sick at one point or another by the end of the night. But I had so much fun! It was such a great time, and I'm so thankful for everyone who shared that night with me!

Our little bird family

We have had this wreath on our door since a little after the holiday season. Macie was going to take it down until a bird's nest was discovered within in it. We were then going to move the nest, but little bird eggs had been laid. So, we have a bird and it's furture family living in our doorway. We have all become somewhat emotionally attatched to this new little family. My plan is to somewhat document this, and share it with you all.

Here is the nest with the eggs!!! The momma bird flies away anytime someone approaches the door, or opens it. So, getting a picture of the bird will probably be a tricky task. An egg also fell out a couple of days ago. Sorry birdy!!!
