-we took todd and aaryn out to busch gardens for aaryn's birthday, and went on a safari to feed giraffes. we got to feed flamingoes, and see an elephant get a pedicure! husbandry at its finest. so cool.
-we went to a new (awesome, fancy) dog park a few times. it is bounded by a lake on one side and woods on another and Roscoe has a field day.
-we booked a trip and bought tickets to go see Texas A&M play Auburn in 2 weeks! we are also going to pit stop in Atlanta on our way back home, to go to the Georgia aquarium and the Atlanta Zoo. Did you know they are one of only 4 zoos in the US with panda bears? neither did we!! excited!
-the new college group structure has taken form, and there are a lot of exciting things on the books. We are in the process of making an Alaskan mission trip for spring break!!
-Rhett got to work from home for a whole week while the store was closed, it was so great!
-we have been tutoring one of the high school students in the youth group in algebra and chemistry. woo it is making my brain work!
-I got to surprise mom for her birthday! It was so great, she didn't know I was coming, or that I was the decoy for a surprise party! we got pedicures and makeovers and got to go to the zoo and just hang out. can't wait to see them at thanksgiving! just one month away!
-I have been volunteering for an exotic pet rescue. It is awesome! I work hard, and play hard. I have gotten to muck horse stalls, work a riding lawn mower, go out to pick up rescue animals, feed baby squirrels, clean wallaby houses, its so great.
why I love being married to Rhett:
-after watching captain america, he foams his toothpaste out of his mouth and says Hail hydra like a cyanide pill
-I catch him making shadow puppets on the floor during small group
-I made a new craft (via pinterest) that is a dry erase board on the wall that says "i love you because.." and the responses have been so fantastic
-Roscoe likes to help Rhett work out, and get between his legs during jumping jacks and other inconvenient things
-Rhett sorta doesn't (but says he does) believe me that there is a roach that defends the dog food against me every time I go to fill the bowl. I go out there, and he is sitting on the handle, daring me to try and open it.
-because he comes out of the bathroom saying his chest hurts, and when I ask him why he says its because he was pounding it too hard when he was acting like tarzan

-about dogs, they are so awesome, and don't you just love those moments when you have stuff to do but the dog wants to cuddle and you can't help but sit still? I like to think that God's personality is more like a dog, and that we aren't so much like Him as a dog is.
