Houston in July

 Remember that house we bought? Well we finally moved in!! It definitely made for an eventful summer. I have to admit. This may have been one of our hardest moves ever. We truly found peace as a family here. I felt like we valued things like we should and we spent most of our time with each other. I am looking forward to enjoying a bigger space, but I'll definitely miss this home of ours. #121

 Jeff... waiting for us to get a 'move' on...

 I am looking forward to only having to haul groceries half this distance... and that I don't have to do it in the rain.
 Yep. moving is hard.
 We dressed up like cows to get free chick fil a
 We still tried to maintain some normalcy... we still went to the art museum most weeks. We obviously go a lot if we make it in their ads. We sure do love it there.
 Our first rainstorm in our new house. The kids sure enjoyed sitting on the patio watching the rain. The puddles aren't as great here, but it's nice to have a dry place to sit.
 The view from our cat-walk..
 swimming and reading... that's what a summer in houston looks like. The upside down thing is a new one though.
 Nate and I finally celebrated our 10th wedding anniversary. It was back in December, but better late than never.
 Idina Menzel did a fabulous job. It was so fun.
Happy July!

We love our pools. Especially with friends. Here we are trying to convince Nate he can do a front flip. He still doesn't believe me.  #thiswasthebestone   #jeffjustwentupanddidit   #overandover   #unafraid   #doesntcarewhatpeoplethink   #wishididnt  # summerlovin Independence day kickball.

band wagon

To better suit my purposes, I have decided to make this more of a journal. That's what it is anyway, but I see no reason to allow random people to see it. I am going *private* Please leave your email if you are even a casual observer at the happenings in the Pettit household. You are welcome any time. The change will happen one month from today.

"I've never been so alone, alone, and I've, and I've never been so alive. So alive." - Motorcycle Drive-by - Third Eye Blind //How we feel. All the time. Glad we could share a little piece of our hearts today with the senior center. They all knew "You Are My Sunshine" which made my heart Happy.  #music   #thismanandhisguitar #wooshearts   #lovehim   #evieproject #evielaree  one of the residents told us to look up a video on YouTube about Amazing Grace. He thought we would like it.  #forreal   #howcouldheknow #n8lovesthirdeyeblind   #ilovehimforit   Also my friend intends to "adopt a grandma here". What a great idea. I can't wait to find out how it goes.  #opa Jeff thinks it's fun to get up with the sun. Apparently it's starting to wear on him because this is what I woke up to this morning.  #goodmorning   #goodmorning   #asleepagainalready   #itsgreattostayoutlate We signed up to help at the Houston food Ban...
