Snow in Aggieland! Whoop!!!




I am not sure how much snow we actually received but it was quite the event for some people. You might have thought we were in a real blizzard for the way some people shut offices, drove around 6 mph on the main streets, and wanted to know when school was being canceled. It was all fun to say the least. We had a delayed opening at Texas A&M which was a nice surprise for everyone. The picture above is of Kyle Field when the snow started to fall. The picture below is of a snowman in our neighborhood. Wonder how long it took for them to make that one?? Enjoy!!

Animals (what would we do with out them?)

Well, looks as though Jack may be coming around to accepting Charlie. It took close to 365 days but she might be getting used to the idea of a dog in her house. Don't get us wrong, it is still a work in progress but at least we are making progress. Below are some pics of the animals we love!!! PS-Can't believe how big Charlie has gotten!!!

One-Year House Anniversary



Can you believe John and I will have been in our first home for a year already? We moved in Valentines day of 2009. What a day that was?! John and I were up late the night before doing last minute packing and up early for some more packing, the movers were late, cable company was early. At least the weather was nice to us!!

After all out stuff was in the new place, we had a great time finding places for it all to go. We quickly realized we didn't have enough to fill the place but we have worked on acquiring pieces through the year to make it feel nice and homey. Now that is not to say that there aren't a few unpacked boxes still looming in the house. I am sure we will eventually get around to those. Someday. :)

Several people have visited the house, we even hosted Thanksgiving in November. Many family members and friends came to stay with us and celebrate. We love company so please let us know when you would like to visit!!

We still LOVE the house and keep finding little projects to keep us busy. It seems there is always something that can be improved or changed to fit our needs. We can't believe it has been a whole year since we moved into the house. What a GREAT year it has been too!!

DENTON!!!!!

Howdy! John and I traveled to Denton last month to catch a Mean Green basketball game as well as catch up with friends from the area. We had such a blast while we were there. We saw some new buildings, drove Loop 288 in its entirety (for the first time since we had been students there), and went to some old hangouts with friends.

Both John and I were able to see some people we hadn't seen in ages. We were able to meet a new baby to the family of Bryan and Denea as well as an 18-month old to Lance and Rebecca that we hadn't met yet. Both were adorable and so perfect!

The basketball game was great at the Super Pit. We were able to catch up with past co-workers and friends at the game.

Next time, we will have to plan to be there longer and catch up with even more people!!!
