Alright already!

Fine then. Geez. Apparently people DO visit this page looking for updates. So you ask for updates, updates you'll get. Last week we moved from Texarkana, TX to Little Rock, AR. I had the principal from Hades in Txk and she hated me so much that she didn't renew my contract for next year. Within a few weeks, Jon got a job offer in Bryant, AR (right by Little Rock) and we decided this was as good a time as any to pack up and move on. Here are a few pictures from our adventure.

This USED to be our desk. We got the unfortunate assignment of an upstairs apartment. It made it up the stairs but not through the doorway. Our over-ambitious brother-in-law decided that he was going to try to get it through the door on his own. It hit the door frame and collapsed into this situation.


Luckily that led us to the opportunity to buy a new real/not from Wal-mart desk. This beauty will be delivered to our apartment next week:


We have ALOT of stuff. I rented the biggest u-haul that u-haul rents. They laughed at, perhaps even scorned, me for getting something so big. We ended up filling it completely. Who's laughing now?

This is when it was almost empty. Some of this stuff went to our storage facility. That's what happens when you move from a three bedroom to two bedroom apartment.

This is our neighbor's absolutely amazing hood ornament.

His super-expensive rims (and tires along with them) were stolen off of his car the other night. He was embarassed because he was just telling my mother-in-law the other day when we moved in how quiet and safe the area was.

And last but not least... This is what happens when you accidentally leave a cake in the back window of your car. For six days. And it's 90 degrees outside.

Unfortunately, we have no pictures together recently. I'll try to take care of that soon. Also, I'll take pictures of the new place when all of our furniture is here and those last few boxes are unpacked. Until then!

Some newer pictures of us

At a wedding we went to this summer

Our district's high school football team went to the state championships and won. We were there.

Jack got a really big bone for Christmas and finished it in less than a month. He rules.

With our niece, Alyssa Kate, who is now a year old! (She was 10 months in this picture)

MySpace and Facebook

Although only something like 5 people read this, I thought I'd let you know that I/we have MySpaces and Facebook. I love the stuff. Jon hasn't been on his in a while, but I think he'd like more friends! I know I would!

I guess some pictures of us would be nice...

Since most of you would probably rather see us than our dog, here are some pictures from the last 6 months or so...























At the Botanical Gardens in Hot Springs on our One Year-versary trip in July. It was REALLY hot.



















At the Astros Opening Day game in April. I even bought an Astros shirt for the occasion! (Ignore the drunk goofball on the side.)
























Easter in Little Rock with the Sumnerses.
























Being cheesy with Jack... and him really wanting outta here!



















This was also on our One Year-versary trip to Hot Springs. We were on a Riverboat/Dinner Cruise.



















A "family photo" we took last week. He is not choking the dog.

He's winkin' at ya!

Cute puppy dog.

Looks like one of those dog cards with the big noses.

The cocked-head look he gives when confused. Sorry about the fuzzy.

A rare ears-up look.

New puppy pictures, in case you care

So! Cute!

In his favorite place: under the bed
Doing his favorite thing: chewing up something

Chillin' out.

Say hello to our new Rat Terrier puppy, Jack. We got him on the day before Valentine's Day from the Humane Society. He is four months old. Awwwwwww...
