Introducing Brenner Murray...

Our 4 month old Australian Sheppard/Beagle puppy!

This was a photo online. We took a few pics, but these were easier to post. Isnt he a cutie!?!?!

Home Sweet Home

Okay. Now that we have internet at the house I hope to be MUCH better at updating this. We are all moved into our beautiful new home and we love it. We are enjoying decorating and painting. We don't enjoy removing wallpaper but we only have 2 more bathrooms to go.

Mom and Dad P. were our first visitors. They spent Halloween weekend with us and we had fun passing out candy (a.k.a. sucking up) to all the kids in the neighborhood. Mom hooked us up with full sized candy bars. "This house rocks" was said many times! :) Now we have a reputation to live up to.

We are almost certain that we are going to get a dog this weekend. Dan should be home all next week, so it is the perfect time. We filled out our application and are planning to go Saturday to pick out our new family member!

A lot more has happened but for now I will just post a lot of pictures.
Our kitchen before. (It looks like tacky wallpaper threw up everywhere) Yes, we removed ALL of that!

Our kitchen now. We will eventually update it, but its amazing how much of a difference paint can make!

Our living room. Its only partially finished at this point. (Notice the tacky gold fan... ah the 90's)

Our back patio. Its huge and backs up to all kinds of trees

Here is Dan standing up in Troy and Meg's wedding

Here we are at Walter and Allison's wedding

And just for fun, Jenkins and Bella because they are cute!
