Momma's Boy

Presley, our boxer, is a Momma's Boy for sure. Dirk denies it but it's the truth. Yesterday, Dirk and I left the house to grab a bite to eat, half way to Chili's Dirk makes me turn around to go home because he forgot his list for Lowe's (his favorite place). I pulled up in front and opened the garage--thanks to Lindsey it works great--and Dirk runs in the house. I am sitting in the driver's seat with the car running and Presley darts out the door. He ran straight to the passenger door and stood with his front paws on the seat. Dirk tried calling him several times to get him in the house--nothing, Presley just sat by the door. He wouldn't budge. So desperately, Dirk tries to push him into the house. He is too big to carry and we unfortunately did not have a leash on him! I am laughing uncontrollably and Dirk is getting more and more frustrated. So I shut the passenger door and turn off the car thinking that Presley may realize that I am gone and not in the car. Again, He doesn't budge. So Dirk tries running to him and then running back in the house to get Presley to follow--NO LUCK. I see Dirk's aggravation so I get out, walk over to Presley and lead him in the house, and he follows without difficulty!!! I'd say that is a sure sign he is a Momma's Boy!

Great Weekend

We had a great but fast weekend! Everyone reading this probably knows we are selling our house! We looked at a few houses on Friday night. There were some great ones--excellent floor plans, great neighborhoods but no backyard :( I just didn't fall in love with anything yet. We will find one that's just perfect--I know it.

On Saturday, Dirk, Jeramy, Wendi and I went on the boat for a while. It was really nice; not too hot and the water was still warm. We all got up on the wakeboard but Jeramy has really proven to be the wakeboard pro! He jumped the wake--like 3 ft off the water. It was very impressive! Wendi and I were clapping and screaming for him. After the lake, we had everyone over for one last get together in our house! It was great. We made beer can chicken, mac and cheese, and potato casserole and played games!

Today reality began to set in. We are supposed to close on October 9th. That means I need to find a mover, pack a three bedroom, two bath, two car garage home that is overflowing with stuff in less than three weeks! It is overwhelming. I am not sure where to begin. We will get through it!

My Dad is in Ohio, and Mom is still here because their house hasn't sold so she has not been able to move with him yet; so they are letting us move into their house until we find something else! Thank you for that, I can't even imagine trying to find a new house or a rent house in such a short time period!

Jeramy wakeboarding and our First home!

New to all this....

I am a blogging virgin! I am so excited to start this new blog to keep up with friends and family I don't see everyday. My dad recently moved to Ohio--so I hope he can check this frequently and feel close to home! We miss you Dad! I am also excited to share my funny stories with you (I think they are funny)! I hope you guys will enjoy reading our blog and maybe even start one of your own.

A little about Dirk and I. We have been married for 3 1/2 years and currently live in Forney--that's for another post. We don't have any kids yet just a fun loving boxer named Presley. Besides his HUGE tongue he is a great dog! We are very close with our families and have the BEST friends in the world. I hope y'all don't mind if I share your stories as well! We are loving life and SIMPLY living it to the fullest.
