Shameful Summer Reading

I said I wouldn't do it...but...for the summer, I have decided to put down my beloved classics, along with all pride and dignity and pick up...

Twilight.

I know. Shameful.

And what's worse!...I'm hooked.
UGH!

As for Florida...we are here and settled. Casey is about to preach, but as it is 9:30, Braelyn and I are in our room and in our jammies and looking forward to a week full of swimming and sand castle building and sunbathing and, um, maybe some light reading. Well, we hope our week is at least half-full of those things...we looked at the weather forecast and it seems there will be scattered thunderstorms all week. Brilliant.

At least you can read in any weather! ;)

And Happy 32nd Birthday, My Love

I can't believe that I've known you since you were 17 years old! Crazy!
I am so proud of the man you have become.
I love you! Happy Birthday!

Stealin' a kiss from the birthday boy. ;)

...and being your wife is also my favorite!

Regarding the move and the apartment and living in The Woodlands...I have been dying to get a post out on these matters. Unfortunately, I have been otherwise occupied trying to get ourselves settled as much as possible before we leave for Casey's first camp in Florida, which is tomorrow. I did not reach my goal of being 100% moved in, but I would say that 85% is not too shabby.

Anyways, as I said, we will be leaving for Florida tomorrow, and hopefully I will get some quality time with the blog while we are sunbathing and "suffering for the Lord" at the beach. Until then...

Happy 4th Birthday, My Sweet!

I love you so much, B!
You're the sweetest girl I know!
Being your mommy is my favorite!!!
Happy Birthday!

Now...off to Sugar Land to celebrate with the fam.

So Long Old Friend

We said goodbye to Tucker today...who, I admit, did drive me CRAZY most of the time, but still, it was a little sad to see him go.

Thankfully, a sweet little couple looking for an older dog adopted him this morning. I think he'll be happy with them.

I asked Braelyn if she would like to say a few words about Tucker's departure...she says, "I will miss you, Tuck."

Sweet girl. She's handling it really well. I'm proud of her.

Alright. House papers are signed. Dog's taken care of. We're on our way.

On with the packing!

Um...Is This Really Happening?

Ok folks, it's late, so I'm gonna keep it short and sweet.

We're signing house papers tomorrow (Tuesday) morning.

We will be residence of The Woodlands on Thursday.

T H U R S D A Y ! ! ! ! ! ! !

It's been an emotional day.
If only my eyes would stop leaking all the time I could get some work done around here!
Sigh....

I'll try to post some updates as we go.
No promises, though...it's gonna be a little crazy 'round here.
