Weekend Recap

The first sip of water I had in Lubbock

I knew we would need one of these....

The water out here is chalky in taste

and cloudy in color = not good!

Sierra Springs is the most delicious water you have EVER tasted

but comes with a pretty steep price tag;

$50 for 6 bottles of WATER!!

So at Blake's suggestion

we decided to try an inline water filter.

Try is the key word here.

After 4 hours, 20 towels

and lots of inappropriate words later

we shut off the water at the street

and went to bed.

Friday morning we woke up

and immediately called a plumber.

Everyone we called said "we can be there next week."

Ma'am,

I just told you we have a HUGE leak under the kitchen sink,

by next week we are liable to have floated away!!

Thankfully Roto-rooter had an opening

and Neil came over and saved the day!!

In a mere 50 minutes

he had managed to clean up the mess we had made

and get the silly thing to work without any problems.

I guess all it takes

is the correct parts,

knowledge of what you are doing

and patience

none of which we entail

(or for this project atleast!)

I haven't tried the water yet

but it's nice to know it works properly!

Saturday,

we woke up to finish yardwork we started last weekend.

We have the world's largest backyard

and one day is not enough time to do the yard!

That afternoon,

the inlaws came intown.

It was a short visit

but everyone enjoyed it.

We went to our usual Saturday 5pm service at church

and then went over to Tiny and Fat Daddy's for his

birthday celebration!

We topped the evening off with some

Marble Slab ice cream

and good conversation.

We woke up Sunday

to a delicious breakfast by my sweet husband

and the went to play golf at the Rawls course.

It was the slowest round of golf ever

but we enjoyed visiting and

watching the jack rabbits!

We enjoyed our nice, relaxing weekend

filled with family and fun!

Hope everyone had a good week!
