In January Patrick quit his job and sold his house in Baton Rouge to move to Houston. Our baby turned 1!! Here's a picture of Coal at 1.
March madness was so much fun, especially being that close to BWW all the time! Both of us started new jobs at the beginning of the month. We also decided
that the apartment was too small and started looking at houses towards the end of the month.
In April we celebrated our 1 year anniversary at Ashlee and Randy's wedding. We took a trip to Surf Side Beach and Coal absolutely loved the beach! He handled the sand a lot better than we thought he would but the waves scared him.
We bought out house in May and moved in June 1st. With the help of my mom and sister we painted 2 bedrooms upstairs and our room. We spent most of June getting settled into the new house. For July 4th we went to Corpus Christi and hung out with my family. Don't we look cute?!?!
Patrick turned 29 in August and we went to see the Mets vs the Astros. We have front row seats in right field!!! Our A/C went out towards the end of the month, so we had a really warm August and September. September was quite exciting for us. We completed the "man-room" with a new couch. We house refugees over Labor Day weekend. We got our A/C fixed the day before Hurricane Ike hit. And then the fun started...
When our ceiling started caving in we fled to Austin, TX where Matt and Mandy graciously took us in! When we returned from Austin we started repairs, within a month we had a new roof. The interior work took much longer for them to get started.
In October my sister turned 21! We helped her celebrate by meeting her at the casino and toasting her birthday with some champagne. In November I turned 25 and we celebrated Thanksgiving with our families.
December came and went rather quickly. We decorated the front yard with lights. Here's the newest additions to our family! We spent most of Christmas break packing up our house for the contractors to start working on our interior work in January.
