TAMU vet school open house




We had a chance to visit the A&M vet school open house yesterday and the kids had a great time, petting and holding several animals. The weather was beautiful and we were thankful for chance to relax after so much house work.









So THAT"S where the milk comes from...

Floored

The month of March has been one of the busiest, and yet, one of the most fun for our family since moving to Texas. Ben and I met for lunch several weeks ago, using the time to talk and plan the month. We've been looking for a chance to rip out carpet in our living rm/dining rm/playroom/hall for sometime now and we spotted a window of opportunity...Spring Break!

SO...out the carpet came with the help of some RUF muscle...David and Brad were a huge help...

And while we were at it...why not bust out the tile too?!



Next, came the painting, most of it at night and hopefully, to be continued...and leveling of the concrete.



And then it was time to set the first piece of flooring...DIAGONALLY! (Thank you JAC!)



All of that took about two weeks and we were at the beginning of spring break at this point. Several friends/students offered to pitch in over the break and before we knew it, the floor was IN!!! It was three long days of quick decisions, feeding the masses, keeping children off of fresh glue, running to the store and being very thankful that we had so many hands to help...








And...Wha-lah!!



THANK YOU EVERYONE WHO HELPED US OUT!!!!
