Her Cat Friends

As much as Katie loves the cats, she usually keeps them out of her room because of her allergies. Every once in awhile, she lets one in to visit, and it was General Washington's turn.

I was just trying to lie down on my pillow, but General Washington thought that he deserved the place of honor.

Homecoming

Katie was very excited for her first high school homecoming dance. She went with her group of friends and had a lot of fun.

I love hanging out with friends. We all have such a good time together!

Sick

Katie and I seemed to go back and forth getting sick this fall.

I knew something was wrong when I woke up. Then I took my temperature, and it was 103 degrees.

First Day of School

Here was Katie on the first day of ninth grade.

How is it already time for high school?

A Treat

 On the second day of Comic Con, Katie got to eat at her very first food truck.

My grilled cheese had more cheese than I prefer, but it was still good.

Comic Con

Katie and Jennifer went on their yearly adventure to Comic Con. Of course that provides a good opportunity for a costume!

We were ready for exploring!

I decided to dress as Furina, one of my favorite characters from the Genshin Impact game.

What Did She Get?

In addition to the birthday gifts that she received, Katie, of course, got some gifts at the Japanese store. She tried two of the popular drinks that they have in Japan, and she really wanted to try moon cakes that were in stock for the Autumn Festival.

I found out that moon cakes come in all sorts of flavors. The box we got were moon cakes with nuts. I liked the cake, but not as much as I liked the drinks I got.
