Update on Life

Life around here has been quite busy that last few weeks. I am sure you can tell by the lack or posts on our blogs.

Here are a few things we have not mentioned.

We listed our house for sale this last week. The yard sign was put up last night. Homes for sale are fairly rare in our neighborhood. It has been funny watching people drive in to the circle to see who is selling their house. Well it is us. Kim and I were at a movie last night and we had a call that someone wanted to see the house so we ran home did the quick 5 minute clean up and took the dogs over to the park. I guess that is how our life is going to be for the next little while until the house sells.

Right now I am looking out the windows as a black truck does the slow drive by.

We went boating yesterday. I checked the water temperature online to how cold it was at Rockport the it said 74. Sounds good, well when we got there the air temperature was about 60 and windy the water was 64. We stayed for a couple of hours and headed home it was a good time and Spence even wake boarded. Can you say shrinkage.

Two weeks ago we bought a new truck. We traded in the old one and ended up getting a 2008 Dodge Ram 2005 Mega cab Diesel. It is still black so most people don't even realize it is a new truck. It has a ton more leg room in the back. More towing capacity and right now it is filled with 100% Bio diesel.

Today, we may go out boating again, or just try to finish up all the small things around the house that need to be done. I think the list of things to get done in the house is down to 2 and a half pages.

We do have a couple of fun things coming up. Kaylees birthday is in less then 2 weeks. She wants rockband 2 but our xbox 360 broke a week ago and we had to send it in for repair. Hopefully it will be back before then. We are going to go see Cats at the Capital Theater on Sept 19. There is a Monet and Picasso exhibit up at the U that we want to go see. The waterfowl opener is in less then a month. I think I will try to find a guided goose hunt to do this year. Should be a blast. And finally we have the Metallica concert on November 3rd. We have really good seats and it should be a ton of fun. This will be Kaylee's first Rock concert. She seems a little worried about how loud it will be (she doesn't like loud things) but we are going to have her bring ear plugs.

Wow what a rambling blog. Hopefully I will be able to keep up on this a bit more now things are starting to slow down.

Brings a tear to my eye... who knew that my very own husband would one day be filling his truck with eco-friendly bio-fuel?! I'm sure it has nothing to do with bio-diesel being the cheaper option :)
