Yesterday Leslie Rader and I went to 1st Monday and stumbled upon an awesome booth called “Come Together Fair Trading Company”. “Come Together Trading” is a retailer in Canton, TX that sells products made by individuals in developing countries. I was surprised and excited to hear about such a great retailer in our area. Check…

Okay…I’ve talked to some others who are adopting from Ethiopia on our Yahoo Chat Group. It looks like our DTE date is Friday, 8/27/10! I couldn’t be any more excited. Well, maybe I will be when we get our referral phone call!! Everyone pray for things to move quickly!

I’ve decided Seth isn’t doing a good enough job keeping everyone updated on how our adoption is going so, I might have to take over Puppy Dog Blue for a while! Ignore my poor writing skills and try to remember that I teach Chemistry, not English!! It’s been a very exciting adoption month! We were…

Another belated post, but you will note that I figure out how to add text to the right sidebar to detail our adoption timeline. That’s going to be updated with the help of Sweet Sweet. On Easter weekend, Sweet Sweet and I traveled to Castroville to celebrate my Grandmother’s 87th birthday. After Miranda and I…

How long is it appropriate to wait before writing about something? I don’t know that I can answer that, but I’ve delayed, for whatever reason, about writing about Sweet Sweet’s half-marathon for quite some time.

Making promises that I cannot keep seems to be my motto, especially when it comes to PDB. I promised that I’d keep everyone updated, but I’ve been awfully bad about posting photos from recent events in my life, in addition to not keeping everyone informed about the status of Sweet Sweet and my adoption. I…

It’s only a few weeks late, which is great for me. First, Miranda and I wanted to do Christmas cards and rather than take pictures of ourselves, we decided that our puppy dogs would be much more appropriate. Ollie Zoey Blue Sweet Sweet and I also purchased a Furminator for Blue as her shedding was…

It’s my annual tradition of ignoring PDB while football season is in full swing. It’s going to happen every year. Just part of the deal. In any event, there are pictures from Mom’s birthday, Sweet Sweet and I at the Texas State Fair and Thanksgiving. At Saralyn’s to celebrate Mom’s B-Day: Sweet Sweet and I…

So after the wild and crazy times in Cozumel, the rest of the cruise was essentially spent waiting to get back to Galveston. The rest of these photos are just lounging around and eating, which is what you do on a cruise. Myself and Sweet Sweet: Ashley and Sweet Sweet: Justin and Ashley: The last…

So, after getting on the ship, having a nice dinner, we finally arrive in Cozumel without any sort of plan. In fact, they always encourage you to make sure that you’ve booked your excursion and we decided not to do that. Seat. Of. Our. Pants. This is Sweet Sweet and I getting off of the…
