About Us

About Us
Glenn and I have been married for ten spectacular years. We recently moved to Saudi Arabia, which is obviously very far away from both of our families. We keep this blog updated so we can stay close to our friends and fam and to keep a record of our family adventures. Glenn is enjoying his new job and I am loving being a stay-at-home mom. We have two sweet little boys, Tate and Finn and two darling twin baby girls, Taryn and Kenna. We love them to pieces. We also love date nights, good movies, good food, and being with each other.

Quick Trip

We went to Houston Wednesday through Friday to check out some houses in our price range down there...assuming our house here sells, of course. We're much more excited about the move now, knowing the type of homes that are available down there. It's still miserably hot and humid and far away from our wonderful friends and everything else we love about Austin, but at least we will be able to live in a fabulous house!
Tate was a trooper. He missed naps, went long periods of time between diaper changes, endured incredibly hot days in the car, and even managed to get a little bit of sleep in with mom and dad in the same hotel room. Poor kiddo was really well behaved with so little sleep. We just kept moving and when he couldn't take being awake any more he crashed wherever we happened to be.
Our hotel had a great pool with a "mountain" (fountain) that Tate could climb on. At this point his seems kind of indifferent to the actual "fwimin" (swimming) and more excited about the "kiemin" (climbing) while in the pool. He likes to try to climb out from the side of the pool, and to climb on the stairs of the pool. So this pool was just perfect. He even learned to jump from the fountain to Daddy in the pool. It was so fun to watch.
It was fun to get away with our little family. Busy, hot, and tiring, but really fun at the same time.
