Life Lately

 At the end of March we attended a marriage conference at our church with Gary Thomas as the speaker.  It was great.  We enjoyed the chance to slow down and spend some time together talking after the sessions.  After the conference was over, we went to the Texas Rangers Museum and checked another Waco Bucket List item off our list.  JW definitely enjoyed this one more than me.  We made it in time for the last showing of the day of a 45 minute documentary on the history of the Texas Rangers.  It was just as exciting as it sounds... I ended up taking a little cat-nap. :)  Hubs had fun though and enjoyed walking around and reading about all of the exhibits.

 In other news, we have been trying to move dinner time back for the pups.  They have been spoiled and were getting fed right at 5 p.m. with Joey's schedule being so flexible.  In Houston that won't be the case, so we have been working on pushing it back.  They're not a fan of the new schedule.  One day we found them both hanging by their bowls at 5 wondering where their grub was.  It was pretty funny, so JW snapped a picture.

 One day last week our kitchen sink got backed up and JW attempted to fix it before we sent in a maintenance request.  Although Joey has an uncle that is a plumber, he has spent no time with him on the job and had no idea what to do.  Dakota tried to help.  JW put forth great effort and did his best, but we still had to call the plumber.  Oh the beauty of renting!

 We're in moving mode around here.  We have to be completely moved by the end of the month, but May is a busy one for us, so we are trying to pack a little bit at a time when we get the chance.  We took pictures of the house before we started packing so we could remember our first place.   I enjoy being organized and don't mind packing too badly as long as I can spread it out and don't have to do it all in one week.  Being able to pack a few boxes a night is a great way to get it done for me.  We have 19 boxes packed so far, and we still have 17 more days to go before the movers come!  I think we're in pretty good shape.

 We gave our 30-day notice and a sign went up in our yard.  It made me a little bit sad the first time I saw it... it's all setting in and feeling more real.

 We've both been wanting Waco shirts to take with us as we move from here.  We went to a local t-shirt shop and picked these up.  I got a cute Baylor shirt too.  It's like it was made for me... with the megaphone and BU.  Love it.  Sic 'em Waco!
