Our weekend was packed full of nothing but work! We went to mom and dads and did some work over there til about 9:00 on Saturday. Sunday, we went to church, had lunch, came home and cleaned (TONS of laundry, spot cleaned the carpet, cleaned the kitchen) went and worked at mom and dad’s some more, and went grocery shopping. I thought weekends were for being LAZY??!?! No one told me this before I got married!!!
Still no word on when we get to move. I had REALLY wanted to be in the house by this coming weekend because a) Dewayne has lots of family coming in for a wedding and we wanted to have more room so more people could stay with us and b) my dining room set is just sitting at the furniture store collecting dust in their warehouse waiting to be delivered. Sooooo disappointing!
I am on the Emergency Response Team at work since I am CPR certified. We haven’t been given our assignments yet but I REALLY hope I get to be the person that calls 911 and or the person that stands out front to direct the first responders.
EVERYONE should go see The Proposal. I don’t think I have EVER laughed so hard at a movie. My stomach hurt so bad from laughing by the time it was over. Best movie I have seen in a long time!!!

We had such an exciting weekend in Rochester! Dewayne and the boys went fishing Saturday morning while the girls went garage sale-ing in Munday. I didn’t buy anything but it was still fun.
Saturday night was VERY exciting with lots of crazy storms and tornados with very little warning. The tornado sirens went off and the storm hit just a few minutes later. Dewayne’s parents lost a tree but the closest tornado to touch the ground was about 10 miles from their home. The electricity went off around 7:00 and stayed off til the next day around 1:00 p.m. Very eventful and exciting but made the guys miserable. The stormed dumped a BUNCH of rain in a very short amount of time and ruined all hopes of hunting or fishing. All the roads were flooded and too muddy to do anything.
Well our plans to move into the house have been slowed a little. There was an issue with our Landlord’s paperwork for their new house and they have to get that straightened out first!
Incredibly, I started this blog on either Tuesday or Wednesday and it is now Friday. My apologies for the out-dated information!

This was at the Petroleum Museum over the weekend. Dewayne decided he could fit… not so much.
My husband is so goofy!!
He is also very sweet. He cooked dinner for me while I was at church last night! On June 21st, it will be a year ago that he proposed to me. Time goes by SOOO fast!
So once again, we are trying to go to Rochester this weekend. I really think it might happen this time, though!! He is going to ask a guy to cover for him this weekend since he is on call. Munday, TX is having their city wide garage sale and I am going with his aunt Brenda! I’m very excited because I hope to find a bed for our NEW guest bedroom! I’ve decided I am looking for a daybed with a trundle. I think that would be neat to have for the kids. Stacy had one when we were little and we always slept on “squeaky” at Grandma’s house which was a daybed with a trundle.
I believe that is all I have for today!

Dewayne and I had a great weekend! Didn’t make it to Rochester (again!) but we spent the weekend with Dewayne’s cousin. His wife got a job down here so they are moving to Odessa. They came for the weekend to kind of learn where things are.
We went to see Land of the Lost while they were here. It was a lot better than I was expecting it to be! I can’t WAIT for The Proposal with Sandra Bullock to come out. I want to see that movie so bad!!
Friday afternoon, I put our old dining room table for sale on Craigslist. We had it sold and out of the house by 9:00 that evening. It was awesome!! So now our house looks REALLY empty with all the stuff packed and our table gone. Our new table is in but we are waiting til we move to have them deliver it. There is no room at our house now and that will be one less thing to move.
Chance of rain today… praying hard for it!!!

I guess that is all that is new. Our lives are pretty routine with work and all. We both still l-o-v-e our jobs, probably more so for me than him. Just hoping the economy is on its way back up. We are starting to see companies spend a little more now that oil has increased a bit. I always thought economics was so irrelevant to life when I was in high school… boy was I wrong. It should have been MORE than half a semester!
Isn't she cute?! She has grown so much. She is about 9 months old now. I just ordered her some new bows so I will have to get some pictures up of those. She has a nice little collection going on and I think there are like 10 more that I picked out that I want. She is so spoiled!!!

Dewayne and I have officially started packing. We just packed things we know we can live without for a while like some décor, holiday decorations, movies, etc. We took them down to our storage building to get them out of the way. That place was already stacked to the ceiling with wedding gifts and now it looks even worse.
We picked out all the paint colors that we want to do… two bedrooms and two bathrooms. I don’t have a clue what to do with the third bedroom! Maybe I will see if Dad will let me have my bunk bed and stick it in there. I don’t particularly want to do that… but it would be something!
I tackled some MAJOR laundry yesterday and this morning. I HATE laundry with a passion! But I am down to maybe one more load! And then the piles will start all over again…!
Dewayne cooked us a steak last night. He loves to cook out on the grill! He went to the store and bought everything himself! I was so proud of him!
Might attempt Rochester again this weekend! Dewayne is itching to go fishing… so we will see!

I really didn’t get much accomplished this weekend. We WERE going to Rochester but Dewayne ended up having to work on Saturday. I was pretty disappointed. But it was cool since I spent most of the day hanging out with Stacy for her birthday! Letty and I snuck in her house while she was gone to another birthday party and decorated her dining room for her.
And this is my feeble attempt at a cute cake. Who cares what it looked like... it was VERY yummy!
And other times I was ready to go out of my mind! She and Daisy don’t really get along that well. Daisy doesn’t mind playing with her but Carley doesn’t really understand that she bites too hard. Daisy knows when to stop.
Anywho, we are getting ready to start packing up for the move. Stacy still doesn’t have a close date but it will make our lives much easier to start packing the things we just don’t need right now! We even signed our vacating notice for the townhouse! These next two months are going be fast and furious!

And this is my cute cake on FIRE!
We kept mom and dad’s new puppy this weekend. She is something else!! I’m leaning towards the idea that she might be bipolar. She could be SO sweet at times:
