May Days

Here's a rundown of some things that happened the last part of May (with pictures!)...

May 16-18th we fed / played with Holly (the Sewell's dog) while they were out of town. Unfortunately, I don't have any pictures of her, but you can just imagine a cute little dog. We had a pet rabbit a few years ago, but don't really want a pet now. They can be really neat, but it's also a lot of work (and a pain to Joe's allergies). So it was fun to have a pet for the weekend!

These are some cute baby birds outside the front door of where I work. They are less cute when they nearly run into you.Joe had to dress nice for work several days one week. I hardly ever get to see him in a tie, and really enjoy him dressing up (though I could do without the ironing).
May 23rd - 25th my family (mom, dad, sister Lauren and brother-in-law Kevin) came down from Dallas / up from San Antonio and stayed with us. It was fun! Here's the basic summary: (1) they all got in Friday night, (2) Saturday morning my parents went with Joe and I to look at some houses we were interested in while my sister and brother-in-law visited friends, (3)Saturday afternoon the ladies went to a bridal shower in Livingston while Joe helped Krista move and my dad and Kevin chilled, (4) Saturday night we saw the new Indiana Jones movie, (5) Sunday morning Lauren & Kevin left and my parents continued looking at houses with us (6) Sunday afternoon my parents left. Here are us ladies as we left for the shower (making looking-into-the-sun faces).
A neat story - when we just started driving around Sunday morning with my parents, we went by a house that had a disc golf basket beside the road. If you know Joe at all, you know saying he likes disc golf is an understatement. It looked like it was set out on the curb for trash, but it was hard to tell. So Joe went up to the door of the house and asked them if they meant to throw it out. They said yes, so it became ours! It does have some rust on it, but the metal is not at all rusted through, so we'll be able to fix it up really nice. It also has a very heavy base on it so you don't have to put cement in the ground to get it to stay. Here is it's new home in our backyard (you can also see a homemade one from my parents).
