Target Practice

We went out to the shooting range on Saturday. This was my first shooting experience - and it was a lot of fun! I think we may have found a new hobby.

Post Hurricane Celebration

Hrricane Ike didn't make too much of an impression on us out here. A cold front moved in just in the knick of time and pushed all the bad weather to our east. We did get some wind and rain, but nothing too damaging. Our friends in the east, however, are still without power and waiting for things to get back to normal. Ick.

In any event, while the Getzes were around our parts last weekend, they decided to host an early birthday party for little miss Clara. Here are some photos from the event.

Waiting on Hurricane Ike

The Getzes drove up from Houston yesterday to escape from Hurricane Ike, which is currently making its way into Texas. We got to enjoy their company this evening as we waited for the storm to make its way out here. We also had a chance to give little miss Clara an early birthday present, as you can see in the slideshow below.

Coffee on the wall

We originally had painted two walls in the living room a leather brown color. As soon as it was up, we decided we didn't like it.

So, we painted one of the walls a cream color, and we finally decided on Coffee for the other wall. We think it looks pretty chic.



We'll post some pictures after we paint the crown moulding and put the living room back in order.

Green may not be John McCain's color . . .

. . . but we think it looks pretty good in our bathroom.



These pictures show you phase I of the bathroom face lift. We hope to finish painting it this weekend.



Our stairwell is starting to look good, too. Ted broke out the extension and covered all the hard to reach places this afternoon.

Alumni Festival

Three years after our first date during the Baylor Rugby Association's '05 Alumni Festival (see the link to their page on our sidebar), we finally made it out for another alumni event. Ted was convinced to play in the match (though we don't have any pictures to prove it). We did get some shots at Cricket's later that evening during a couple of intense matches of foosball.
