Our final farewell...

...to the old and on to the new. We finally made it and I am quite proud of Brad and his choice in housing. We live in a 3 bedroom 2 bathroom duplex that is nicer than the remodeled house we just moved from. I hear we have some great neighbors and a big back yard. To be honest, I couldn't have done a better job. Plus, when the kids and I got here 2 days after Brad, he had set up almost the whole house. What a great guy! A BIG THANKS to Grandma and Grandpa Allen for all their work!! Grandpa drove the van behind Brad in the moving truck and helped move both out of our old place and into the new. And Grandma played Mom #2 throughout the whole moving process. We really appreciate their willingness to take time off work and come help up this last week! Another big THANKS to everyone who came to help pack or load the truck! We had so many people come that we started loading the truck around 9am and were done around 10:3oam. It went so fast and smoothly. I really have to give Brad all the credit! I wasn't really worried about this whole move. I guess I just knew that Brad would have thought of everything. And he did!! I sure love him! As soon as I get things a little more organized, I will definitely post pictures of our new digs!!

The Joys of Moving...

I don't know if you can really call them joys but to be honest, it hasn't been that bad. You might get a different answer from Brad because he has been dealing with a lot more than I. Anywho, moving is always nice in some ways because you get to throw away anything that you don't need and have an excuse to poo-poo your hesitation. I can't believe all the crap we have collected since we have been married. Even in these 2 years we've lived in our house. It's amazing how we can accumulate stuff so quickly.

Brody's blessing

Last Sunday Brad blessed Brody in church. Thanks to all the family who could come for making it a special day for us. We feel so blessed to have this darling little boy in our family and thank Heavenly Father for our children. We truly have the cutest and best kids ever!!! Enjoy the pics!

Brad's trip to Texas!

So Brad just got back from his trip to Texas to scope out Baylor Law School and to find a place for us to live. He got lucky and found a place and hopefully we are approved. We find out today! Also, he was able to connect with a few long lost buddies and go to a Rangers game. I have never known a fan as loyal as Brad. Despite a bad season or more, he is still cheering them on like always. Here are some pictures. Here is Baylor Law School, the green of Texas and the house where Brad grew up in Double Oak, Texas. Below is the Ranger game.

Our vacuum...

So we have the perfect setup at our house...our carpet stays quite clean due to our dog. This has been quite helpful especially when we had Brylie for when she spit up or dropped her cheese or cracker crumbs etc. This video shows just how much he loves to "clean up".

And here are more pictures of Brody!! and Brylie.
