Puppies and Packing!

So we finally did it! After planning for what seemed like years, we moved all of our stuff across town into an adorable little green house. It's three bedroom/two bathroom and has TONS of space. I mean, the master bedroom and backyard are gigantic!

And to make things even more exciting we moved the puppies in on Saturday evening. We had one tiny accident so far, but generally they are learning extremly fast. Buster is our calm one. He would rather lay around and bask in the sun then do anything else. Bella is completely opposite. She would much rather run around and jump on people then lay down for just one second. It's so hard to believe that they are brother and sister because they are so different. But if you forget they're related sit back and watch as they wrestle and fight each other in what seems like some kind of awesome sibling deathmatch. I'll post some pictures on here later!

We spent all day yesterday unpacking what seems like a trillion boxes and putting stuff together. It's kind of amazing how much stuff we have. It didn't seem like we had any of this at the old place, mostly because it was much smaller. Our old place is disgustingly dirty now that it's empty and I am totally dreading having to go back to clean it so we can get a deposit back. Oh the joys of renting.

We had some friends over last night to check out the new place and received a really good response on it. I'm glad everybody likes it so much, especially considering it's green with blue carpet. Honestly, the blue carpet used to bug me, but it's really growing on me now. I'll take some pictures and post those later too so you can all see the house! One of the major perks of this house is that it has a two car garage! I've wanted a garage since I started driving, mostly because I HATE cleaning snow and ice off of my car. And being from Kansas, I got quite good at it. Just because I'm used to it, doesn't mean I like it. In fact, my ideal winter snowfall would be somewhere between 5-10 inches for the entire winter. Having to get up 15 minutes earlier just to clean off my car seems ridiculous to me. Not to mention that because we don't get much snow here in the valley of CO, when it does snow, even an inch or two, people drive 5 mph thinking they'll crash. I guess sometimes it pays to be from Kansas.

We had a blast with our friends last night, as did the dogs. Our friends Kati and Joel have an older dog named Marley who is the most hilarious dog to watch. They also have the brother dog of our two and watching them play is hilarious. Our three are the only ones left in the litter so it's nice that they know each other. Funniest story from last night: So we bought our dogs a couple of nice big dog bones, but they haven't chewed on them at all. They put them in their mouths and then just kind of run around with them, which is really funny but not at all helpful. So Marley comes over and steals both bones, plus a ball that was in the yard. He goes over to the corner of the yard and lays down with the bones and ball near him. Everytime one of the puppies came near he would let out a ferocious bark and the puppies would run away. It was hilarious. Matt started calling him "The Godfather."

I'll write more later, and hopefully post some pictures!

Happy Reading!
