Memorial Day

A little late on the posting but here are some from our visit with family and friends (in no particular order)-

Summer cut-

He's back!

Actually, they are both back. However, Griff is the cat with the most impact. Mimi came last weekend and along with her came our two cats- one with this lovely haircut. Fun, fun! Have I told you how much we missed them... probably not because we were hoping Mimi would adopt them for good :)

Pierce has really enjoyed having Lucy around and of course, she is making friends with all the neighbors. Griff seems pretty confused still with the new house and is busy being mistaken as a really mean squirrel throughout the neighborhood.

back from Boston...

for over a month now! Yes, it has taken me quite a while to post these but I wanted to get these up from our trip to Boston last month. Pierce and I headed up to visit Shelly and the rest of Ward family for a long weekend and it was just the get-a-way we desperately needed. Highlights included the Big Apple Circus, a Duck Tour, a Red Sox vs. Yankees game but most importantly plenty of time with my big sister and her wonderful family. How those trips leave me wishing that we all lived closer...

31

So... I have to say that thirty-one hasn't been so bad so far. We had a great birthday weekend together- Curt, P and I. Highlights included seeing Horton Hears a Whoo, lunch at Tacodeli with my friend Dani, napping with Pierce, talking on the phone with friends and family, a trip to Amy's Ice Cream Shop, beautiful weather, a long bike ride with our little fam to Town Lake Park and lunch at Central Market together. I am hoping that this weekend was a good indication of the year to come :)

Much love to you all-

Mimi, Lesley and Henry

Last weekend Mimi, Lesley and Henry came to visit. The boys were so excited to see one another but it was touch and go all weekend. There were many highs and lows... crazy happiness and within a split second, things could make a drastic change for the worse. Overall, we had a great time and enjoyed a trip to the rodeo, Zilker Park, and of course our favorite restaurants.

We are excited that we will have much more room in our new house for guests:)

March 2008 Already?

Wow! I have really had good intentions to post to the blog this year but I have fallen short to do so. So... now here we are in March and big things are happening with us. We now have a contract on a house in Southwest Austin and things seem to be moving right along. Here are a few photos... yes, the trim is green and the shutters are blue. Quite odd but we will take care of that pretty quickly after closing on the 26th of March. That color combo seems to bother me more than anyone else:)

Our skinny pant wearing upstairs neighbors have been obnoxiously louder than usual so we are crossing our fingers that everything goes smoothly with the home purchase.

I will send everyone updated contact info. once we are in and have that information.
