We got kittens!

The other day our house-help, Mama Benna, told us that a carpenter near her home had kittens. So we asked our parents and they said we could get 2 kittens :) On the way home from school yesterday, my dad picked me up on his motorcycle, and we rode over a got 2 precious kittens <3
Now the funny thing is that that guy wasn't there at first, so we started riding off, then we a saw a man running up the street, he stopped us and said "I believe you were looking for me!" so he took us inside is shop and gave us the cats :)
The kids were so surprised when we drove up with them!
I can now say that i've ridden on a motorcycle while holding two kittens (who where scratching me!)

Here our some pictures :)

Ferb (L) and Phineas (R)

Freak out! Then try and remember all the Man vs Wild’s that I’ve watched :) And pray..very very hard!


what is your favorite feature: Eyes, feet, nose, etc?

Hm…..If you mean one of my features..i like my hair :) It’s really thick! And I like the color of it, and all of my sisters have red hair, and so I’m proud of my blond <3 But if you’re talking about period..then I like eyes :)


Ponytail or bun?

Ponytail! I wear my hair in a ponytail every day!


Are your ears pierced?

That’s actually a funny story :P I’ve gotten them pierced like 3 times, and each time they got infected, then my sister pierced my cartilage and that got infected too…so piercing my ears never ends well..


What are you scared of?

Spiders!! Spiders all the way! your man.

Short or tall?

Tall..or at least taller than me :)
