Well today we hit the ground running after just walking for the past week! I had my first commute from "town" to school this morning and it went really well except for the whole getting up 30 minutes earlier! We are almost totally moved into the new house and should complete moving the last bedroom today or tomorrow! We are absolutely in love with the amount of space the new house provides and we love the newness of it all! (I guess having new furniture arrive probably helps that a bunch!) We finally brought the dogs yesterday (the cat has been there since Friday when we starting staying at the new house), but not until I gave one of them a hair "butchering!" (Hair cut is too modest for what I had to do to his hair!) He is a Scottish Terrier and the yard that we had at the other house had a bunch of grass burrs in it, so put two and two together and you don't get a good outcome! It was amazing that his hair was still actually white under all the dirt! But that is the progress on the house and our moving situation!
Here is a little bit more about our trip down to Houston:
We arrived in Houston at 2 AM Saturday morning (after leaving at 3:45 PM Friday afternoon). It was drizzling on us the whole way down there and proceeded to do the same thing for the next two days! Luckily our hotel was in the same parking lot as the exhibit hall where the show was so it wasn't too terribly bad! The exhibitors at the stock show were awesome and I tried to refrain from spending any money, but of course that didn't happen! Berkley loved looking at all the animals and was very curious about all the sights and sounds! We watched the working dogs do their thing and it made me really want to have more patience with our Border Collie because I saw his potential! By Monday the weather was AWESOME and it turned out to be a perfect day for the zoo! Apparently everyone and their dog also had the same idea because the place was packed! (Plus it is in downtown Houston so that doesn't help!) After we got back to the hotel, the rest of the group went back to the exhibit hall for a bit and me and Berk stayed in the room so she could nap. After she napped for a bit, the older "kids" went to the rodeo and Darius Rucker concert while Gran and Pops babysat Berk! (Thanks so much by the way!) Then we got up Tuesday and left by 11 AM. The ride back was just as bad as the ride TO Houston but this time the weather was beautiful and we got back home not as late! We did stop in this town called Bee Cave right outside Austin and it was AWESOME! I will post pictures tomorrow of the trip and the house since my battery decided to be uncooperative today! Hope everyone has a wonderful Monday!
