Happenings.....

It's so hard to keep the blog going these days. With facebook and twitter, it's just tough! I don't even know if anyone checks this anymore but oh well! What has been going on with us?

Brian has started his new full-time job at Kirksey in Rogers. He teaches and coaches 8th grade football and is LOVING it. This Thursday kicks off his first game. We are super pumped!

We sold our house in Farmington a couple of months ago in ONE week. That was a blessing and confirmation of the steps we feel that we are supposed to take. We are currently renting in Johnson and broke ground on our new home in Rogers just this week. Very excited about that. Our home should be ready in mid-December. I don't know why we always move in the freezing cold or the blazing heat. We hope and plan on staying there for a good while--we are tired of moving! Pics of the foundation block:


Moses and Molly have adjusted really well and we don't have to worry about shock collars anymore since we have a totally fenced-in yard now. They are such awesome doggies! One
day we found them like this. They are not allowed on the furniture and so obviously not allowed to mess with the pillows either but I guess they decided to take a nap and needed a pillow--stinkers! I think Moses knew he was in trouble here!

We were blessed enough to vacation at Gulf Shores this summer with the Mincks family. We had a blast and want to go back asap! Not many pics though, camera is flaky and we need a new one. We also got the opportunity to travel to Washington D.C. to see my dad pin-on as Brigadier General the first week in August. It was amazing and we are so proud of him! I haven't gotten the main pics from my mom yet but here are some pics I stole from Meg's facebook:

That's all folks! =)
