House Search, Part 2

Matt and I are heading back to Dallas today to look at another round of houses. Also, tonight we're seeing TOOL in Fort Worth with Mike Shannon and Rhiannon. Oh, and I got my own pair of bowling shoes!

Other news: Emily is officially a college graduate! On Saturday she got her diploma and we had a party at Uncle Johnny and Aunt Cindy's to celebrate.

The last three days, in pictures

I'm too tired to write a real post right now...so here's a summary of my last three days in picture form.

Austin:

Lisa and Miles, with eager (and not so eager) helpers Liz, Travis, and Darby

Miles and "Aunt" Camei

Uncle Matt, Aunt Camei, and Miles

Landscaping project with Emily:
Wahoo!

Emily graduates from A&M tomorrow - whoop!

new bowling record

I blew my previous bowling high score out of the water yesterday. Previous record: 77. New record: 123. And I got a turkey. I'd be more pleased but it was pretty much good luck that got me that high. I'm equally proud of my 90 because it was more consistent.

Emily and I went to Home Depot and talked with a couple different women about plant options for the duplex. It was very exciting! We're going to tackle the project when she's done with finals.

I think I'm going to Austin tomorrow to visit cousin Lisa and baby Miles!

I have all manner of plant matter and dirt...

...under my fingernails. The last couple days I've been working off my nervous energy and excitement about our house search by pulling weeds and trimming the bushes at the duplex. Actually, I'm formulating a master landscaping plan just for fun and this weekend I may hit up property owner John for some funds to get at least some of it made a reality.

We're heading to Dallas tomorrow to look at houses with Jerry Washam! Seven, actually, which should take up a good chunk of time. Matt's been working on loan stuff really diligently and so the next step is to, you know, find a house! We're taking the camera and will take lots of pictures. :)

Tonight's Grey's Anatomy episode was a two-hour event setting the Addison spin-off TV show in motion. I liked the idea, and I like the character of Addision, but none of the people she met in LA really did anything for me. Oh, and the thing with Meredith's dad (no spoilers here, just in case someone hasn't watched their DVRed episode yet) made me mad.
