This is the way we ROLL...

Ok so here's the scoop...

We were SUPPOSED to close on our house Friday, BUT some things came up with our appraiser. GRRRR! But all that to say, we are closing either on Wednesday or Thursday of next week. Best part is, we can still move in next weekend!!! YAY!! I will get to spend my quarter of a century Birthday in our NEW HOUSE! That is such a great b-day present. :) (Yes I just reminded everyone my b-day is coming up... haha... June 11th baby!)

Speaking of our house, Scott and I are looking for some new bedroom and living room goodies. We want to put our current bedroom set into our guest room and get new furniture. Originally we wanted black furniture, but we found expresso furniture that we really like. See -



The only problem is our bedding will be in black and white. Do you think it will clash?







Also we are looking at a new rug and chairs for our living room. This is what we are getting -


This will match our tiles on the 1st floor. We are also looking at some chairs that will match the greenish color in there!












We are really excited! Even more excited to have people over to see it and spend time with us!!! :)

I got a hat!

Scott and I went to our first Astros game tonight! We did it up right too...

Spent wayyyy too much money on food and had nose bleed seats. But it was so fun! They won and I even got a hat out of it...

house full of wieners

I am writing this to the sound of 12 paws running through the living room. Did Jaco join a gang? No, he is the leader of a Gang!
We are dog sitting for some friends of ours... or hosting "The World's First Wiener Dog Sleep Over."

It has every thing you would expect in a sleep over... The "we miss our mom and dad" whimpering that quickly fades with the sights and sounds of new rooms to check out "sniff sniff sniff" and new toys to play with "tug tug, rip rip". This followed by eating too much junk food "bones and treats." This spells out stink in the form of buckets of vomit! So after Britt yells "OH MY GOODNESS!" over and over again from the kitchen I jump to my feet and run in, to see a dog in full stream..... from the mouth. I am not going to say what dog (all will remain innocent until proven guilty in a court of doggy law.) I will say this, Jaco was sitting on the couch looking at me like "Dude what did you want me to do?"

So after all the hype has slowed down and everyone is settling into their final place for the night, I will take a look at Britt and say... you still want to wait before trying to tackle some kids? The vote is unanimous... and we decide that trying to keep a small wiener dog off the streets and out of little dog gangs is going to serve as enough of a challenge for a while.
