Hi All,
So my husband and I moved into our first house this weekend. I can't believe we are homeowners! We bought a 1915 cottage in a really nice old neighborhood. Its very exciting for us. My brother in law came down to help us move, and when he went to check his email Sunday night, we had our first quiet moment together. It was sweet, like a "we did it!" moment with a hug.
Then we both noticed a weird scratching sound . . .
We looked where it was coming from, and saw a little pair of white fur-legs swinging around in the air in the fireplace. Blossom was crawling up the fireplace! and Billy was watching her! I think he was learning from her mistake. Gavin moved quick and gently pulled her down. She was covered, ear to belly, in soot--except for a small white patch on her face. She looked at us like, "what? I didnt do anything. You can't prove anything!"
The soot was literally dripping off her, so we put her in the sink and rinsed her down--she didnt complain. But her fur already absorbed some of the soot. So now we have a white Billy and a gray Blossom.
It was hilarious! I will never forget those little legs swinging around the fireplace.
