We want a baby....a dog baby!

I'm guessing I'm not going to be very good at this blogging thing...it never hurts to try though right?

Our lives for the past couple months have been work and sleep..and working on our house on the weekends. Its not too exciting but things are good and we can't complain :)

Michael has been enjoying work at Oxy more and more- and they put him in charge of a pretty big project the other day! He found out about 30 minutes later that it would be fiscally ridiculous so they put the kabosh on the whole thing, but all in all I think he did pretty good on his first big project! My job is going pretty well, I LOVE the people I work with so even when it gets really stressful (daily) or I get yelled at by builders for something that is not our fault (daily!) we still have fun.

House work...if you know Michael you know that once he gets an idea he has to see it out to fruition before he'll take a breath. So we've installed an attic access door in our garage and put flooing and a light up there. We also put french drains in this weekend! Our yard wasn't draining very well and we always had puddles of water along the fence- but no mas! Michael and his dad did an AMAZING job of getting that done in one day. And if you don't know anything about french drains, let me tell you they are not easy to install! Especially when there is no dirt, just clay. We've also hung the porch swing that Michael built on our front porch so we can enjoy this beautiful weather we've had lately.


In other news, Michael and I are thinking its about time Rudy had a little sister! So we're looking for puppies that need a home and are gonna go visit the pound soon. We're also looking for names so if you have any suggestions feel free to send them our way!

We've had lots of visits with family (mine and michaels sides) and have gotten to see some friends but things are definitely different. We're missing college station and will hopefully go back for a weekend soon! Ya'll should come too!
