New Adventure and Upcoming Vacation!

Kory and I embarked on a new adventure this week... we got a dog! We have been discussing getting a dog since March but decided that we would not do it until after I was off for the summer and we went on vacation. God has a sense of humor because the perfect opportunity for us to get a dog came a week before we left!


Kory found the dog on Tex Ags and emailed about him, we thought it was a lost cause all throughout the weekend and then on Sunday we got an email saying that if we were still interested we could adopt the dog. We contemplated over it all day Monday and decided Monday night that this was the perfect opportunity with really bad timing but our loving families were really supportive of us and everyone pitched in to help us keep the dog while we went on vacation and what not! (Secretly I think they are excited that we took this step because the next one means grandbabies... we'll hold off a little longer on that). Anyways, Monday at 6:30 we found out if we wanted the dog we needed to meet them in Navasota (about an hour away)right then. So with no food, no kennel, no NOTHING, we headed down 290 to meet our new dog:) It was love at first sight for me and for Kory (he will say he hasn't decided yet but he rode all the way home in the back with the dog... I'll call that love).  We got it all taken care of but it was a looooong night!

We are so excited to start this adventure with our new puppy... Duke!


Me and Duke!

Kory and I are heading to Moab, Utah and Durango, Colorado for a week on Friday! We will be hiking, whitewater rafting and really enjoying some cooler weather. I can't wait to share with you what we did when we get back!

Have a great 4th of July,

Amanda
