Yay for puppies!

Hellooooo! I know it has been awhile since I have blogged yet again, so let me get you all up to date on the happenings here in good ole North Carolina.

As you probably already know, Bryan and I got a new puppy! Her name is Roxy and she is part beagle and part basset hound. She was really shy and didn't want to play much when we first got her, but now she wants all of our attention. Instead of warning us when she needs to go outside, she barks to let us know she did it inside. She does this even after we took her out 5 min before.

In other news, it has been pretty chilly out these past few days. Not as cold as it is at home, but still cold.

I have yet to hear back from the daycare where I turned in my application last week.

Well, that's about all that has been going on around here. Blog at ya later!

Wowzers!

Wow! Yet again it's been awhile since I last blogged. although I do have a good reason. This last week, we couldn't get our wireless internet connector to work. Thanks to Josh and Rachel, it has been working pretty well today!

Here in the big NC, the weather has been kind of sporadic. It will be warm and sunny one day, warm and cloudy the next. and chilly and rainy the next. But it was nice to finally get rain seeing as how we are in the middle of a drought. Yesterday it poured all day. It was the most it had rained since we have been down here!

I finally went to New Bern on Saturday to pick up an application for a daycare kind of like kiddie korner at the Y. I am excited but nervous at the same time.

I am starting to miss my friends a lot more. I haven't talked to Tiff or Cassie in a couple of weeks! I also need to call Denise because I haven't talked to her in awhile either!

I have been hanging out with my new awesome friend Rachel, a lot these last few weeks. We have had her and her husband, Josh, over for dinner and to just hang out a lot and Rachel had me over for dinner last night while Bryan was at work. She made Chicken Parmesan which was wonderful. They have also been using our washer and dryer these last few days. You see, their friend gave them a washer and dryer but the spin cycle on the washer doesn't work, which is kind of important. Plus the dryer vent broke.

Well, I haven't had anything really exciting happen, so I am going to end this post. If you want, give me a call! I am kind of bored! lol!

New Stuff

Hey guys! As you most likely already know, Bryan and I have moved into a new house! After being in TEQ for almost a month, we got a phone the week before Christmas from TMO saying that a house would be available that day. The first few nights, we slept on an air mattress that we bought at Wal-Mart. Little did we know, that after four or five hours we would end up practically on the floor. We still have yet to find the hole in it!

The movers came that Friday with all of our things. But that was the second time around. They came at about 8:45 am, got everything set up to bring stuff in, and I signed the papers. The first guy brought in set of Trampoline poles and asked where I wanted them to go. I said that we didn't own a trampoline. They ended up having the wrong truck. The guy that had our's was in the same neighborhood, so they went and traded trucks. All was good the second time around. After unpacking everything in one day, I wasn't a very happy camper. to make matters worse, I noticed that one of the ceramic pedestals from the wedding was broken. We were hoping for a clean break, but the whole bottom was shattered.

We ended getting everything put into it's place that weekend. It was amazing and I'm so glad we did. We are enjoying our own home. It's beautiful, big, and we don't have to pay anything for it.

Christmas eve, Bryan and I went out for dinner at Ruby Tuesday and watched two movies. Then the next day, I cooked Christmas dinner,we played to the playstation, and watched some more movies. It really didn't feel like Christmas due to the fact that it was seventy degrees and people were wearing shorts. New Years Eve was amazing. We had our neighbors Josh and Rachel over and ate a ton of food that we didn't need.

This morning, Bryan and I started working on our goal. We want to look noticeably better by march. We lost some weight while we were in TEQ by eating tons of salads and hardly anything that was bad for us. So we woke up at 4:45 this morning to go for a run. Let's just say it was freezing outside, my lungs were shriveling up, and I only made it a mile.

Today, Bryan went back to work after having 10 out of 14 days off. I will probably be on the net for awhile, then play some Guitar Hero. I will blog some more later!
