I'm Home! -Emma

Wow.. it's been awhile since I've written a new post. I'm really sorry about that.

But, I am back home from Florida!

In case you didn't know, I went on a trip to Florida for my 16th birthday (which is Feb. 2nd). I had such an amazing time there! I miss the warm weather, palm trees, and just island life in general already.

If you'd like to see more things about my trip, I wrote a blog post over on my personal blog, Life According to Emma.

In the past few weeks, I also joined as a writer on International BFFs! I know what you're all thinking, it's about time!! I'm super excited to start writing there too, since I have quite a few friends that collaborate on that blog!

In other news, (sad news), my cat Abby passed away two days before I was leaving to go to Florida. It all happened really suddenly and was definitely the hardest thing I've ever gone through. And that's saying a lot, because I've gone through some rough times.

She was my best friend that I spent all day, everyday, with. So obviously it has been really hard on me. Hence, another reason why I haven't posted.

I know, I know. Excuses, excuses. But I feel like that's a pretty good excuse nobody can fight me on.

And now, in even bigger news.....

I adopted another cat!!

My mom and I went to the St. Louis Humane Society on Thursday of this past week, and adopted an adorable 4 year old female calico cat.

I named her Khloe. She's absolutely adorable and so playful! I'm so in love with her already. And I love that I got to save a kitty and give her a loving forever home.

I will definitely be posting more photos and videos of her later!

I'm going to have some new normal posts coming up very soon, sorry for all of the update posts lately.

Talk to you all soon!
