i'll hit the highlights, then prepare yourself for the BIG ONE!
-rhett and I spent some of our wedding gift money on a wii. we were blessed with almost all of our registry items, and only needed a few bathroom towels...so we splurged. let me tell you, it has been totally worth it! it is one of our very favorite pasttimes.
-we have very much loved being so close to family. we have had aggie basketball watching parties at the yaws...i have gotten as much twin cuddling as I can wish for, dinner dates, small groups, church, and a birthday party for Kaylee this weekend! we love you family!
-for spring break, rhett and I are blessed to be able to see both our families before we move again in late march. more on that later. we are excited to see siblings, parents, and our nephew!!
-I have been applying for a few part time nanny positions while we are in houston, with some luck, and have found one family that I very much like and got to sit for last week! they called me again, and I am excited to see where that relationship goes!
-Rhett is doing great working in Houston with James. we very much love being near the schumachers, and love our game days together with them!
-our apartment is wonderful. though we are sad to be packing and leaving it soon (only a short 7 weeks left), it has been such a wonderful first-home for us, and we love it.
-we are excited to go camping in 2 weeks! it will be great to spend time with friends..and carry on the 4th annual birthday tradition! what an exciting family pasttime that Rhett and I get to share.
-marriage is fun. we love going to bed early and waking up early and watching movies and playing wii and having dinner together. it takes patience sometimes, but we are both learning!
first set of big news (but not the biggest). for those of you who know us well..our moving situation has changed. business negotiations in orlando have hit a roadblock, so please pray for us as we work through this time of uncertainty. we may be staying closer to home (Texas), but we are excited and trust the Lord wherever he takes us.
and the BIG NEWS! we got a DOG!!!! also for those of you who know us, you will know that this has been in the making since...well...we started dating. we love dogs, and just had to wait to graduate to get one! it wasn't in the plan to get one right now....but we have been SO BLESSED with our new pal Roscoe. he is a lab/giant schnauzer mix, 57 lbs. and a year and a half old. we got him from the SPCA and he was a cruelty seizure from a puppy farm. he is magically kennel trained, house trained, and is great with other dogs and other humans! he very much loves the dog park (3 visits in 3 days) and tolerates baths (4 in 4 days). we visit the vet tomorrow to start the battle against his heartworms...and we love him so much!!!!
In Him,
The Grimes
