A Little Bit of Everything

I haven't updated lately b/c we haven't really done anything to report about. Last weekend we headed to Abilene/Lubbock. I had never been to Lubbock before last Friday and I was pleasantly impressed considering the stories I've been told. We met some people for lunch and then met with BEG's advisor. He is not going to start class in Lubbock until the summer so we have a few more months to sell the house and get all the loose ends tied up for the BIG move!

He was asked to teach his course at LSUS again this spring and he will also take Calculus II and audit Chemistry all while working full time and playing soccer to keep him sane! So needless to say, BEG will be B-U-S-Y this spring. Instead of applying for jobs in Shreveport knowing that we are moving in May, we have decided that I should start the job search in Lubbock. I have applied for a few jobs but no interviews yet! Hopefully I can stay in Shreveport through the holidays and start something at the first of the year but.......we will have to wait and see what happens.

This past weekend was our first weekend at home in awhile and it was fantastic! We went out Friday night with some friends for Lauren's birthday and laid in bed all day Saturday watching college football (just doesn't get any better than that!) Saturday evening we went to a wedding reception briefly before heading home to watch the Rebels and Tide play ball; I must say we did VERY presentable. The Tide didn't even cover the spread!! Sunday we got up and got busy cleaning for our open house. Our realtor called this morning and said that we had 4 couples stop by and 1 seemed interested! We will see what happens (fingers crossed!!) We are having a realtor open house next Tuesday and hopefully that will produce some showings as well.

Please keep us in your prayers! As exciting as this time of our lives is, it is quite stressful as well!!

BEG's sister Jill is coming in town tomorrow till Friday to hangout with us. She doesn't start her new job in Amarillo until Monday and with me not working I thought it would be fun for her to come out. Realistically, once BEG and I move from Shreveport his family will have no reason to ever come back to Shreveport so ...... she is coming to get her last Superior margarita and a few other things!

Rebecca and Tom find out the sex of their baby Friday and are having a party Friday night to reveal the sex of the baby. Since non of us here in Shreveport can make it to the party we decided that we would Skype our way into the party! I have never used Skype before so we will see if I can figure it out!!

Hope everyone has a good week.
