This weekend

Well, we had a busy weekend. Saturday we sorted and packed Sam's stuff - and it of course took longer than I estimated it would, but oh well we had some fun doing it.

Sunday I was blessed to have a bridal shower thrown for me. Wow, it was amazing. I really appreciated all the work Dana (and my mom), along with Jill, Brooke, and Kari put into it. It was great girls! (and the cake was oh so good). It was also special to have more than 30 ladies come and show their support of us. I'll have to post some pictures here soon.

Our Crazy Dog!

So I know I recently reported that Sammy was eating well - that however is no longer the case. This dog is ridiculous! I decided to start switching him to dog food, just mixing in a little here and there with his other food. All was going well or so I thought. This morning I gave him about half dog food, half hamburger meat and rice, topped with blueberries. He turned his nose up to it and will not eat. Instead he looks like this....

It's that time....

Yes, It is officially time for Sam and I to start sorting and packing everything up in preparation to move. I only have 3 weeks of classes left in college (plus finals....but)! Anyways we are going to be very very busy for the next month.

So all this to say, if you are going to be in College Station or Houston on December 15th when we move all the big stuff into our apartment, we'd love your help.

The Sams

Sam has to keep reminding me this blog is not for the life of Sam and Sam (for the sake of non-confusion i'll call Sam the dog Sammy on here) together, but this is a cute story so I had to share....

Sammy is eating first of all - finally! Though he has to dine on blueberries, hamburger meat, rice, sweet potatoes, carrots, peas, and bananas to do so. SPOILED! (Sam pointed out this morning that I spent more time cooking for him than I did for us)

This morning Sam and Sammy shared a banana. However, Sammy thought the effort to chew it was too much, so Sam mashed it. Here's a picture of them sharing a banana - well Sam enjoying his shared banana anyways!

Our First Post!

Time has flown by and now in less than 2 months Kristina (me) will be moving to Houston! So we decided it was time for a blog so we can keep up with all our friends that are spreading out. Sam wants me to inform everyone that actually this blog was all my doing, however he did think it was a good idea.

So just a quick update on what we've been up to... We've been busy that's for sure. Sam is working in downtown Houston at Chevron, and I'm in College Station finishing up my degree and trying to find a job in Houston.

This weekend Sam and I got to spend some time together in College Station....and we had fun. Sam and Sam (the dog) played nonstop it seemed like - they have so much fun together.

Then this evening Sam and I decided it would be fun to carve a pumpkin. Once we had cleaned it out we reached a creative block.....but after some plotting we had a plan and here's how it turned out....

And the happy carvers: (my hand looks quite odd but....)

We have decided to refer to Mr. Pumpkin as the lovestruck man - Sam really did a great job carving his heart eyes. Really he's quite cute, and currently is lording over our living room.

Well that's all for now....it's movie time!
