Summer has come to an end...

We went to Austin to visit Margaret, Mara and Larry (the dog).  We spent Friday night at Mara's new apartment and then met up with Margaret and Larry at a dog park called The Island.  The dog park was awesome, it was on Lake Austin and full of trails.  The dogs had a great time, then we took them to Dirty Dog to get baths.








Edge and I have enjoyed our time together, since I finished my summer schools courses we took advantaged and relaxed.  Of course this is what he does everyday, but for me it was a treat.




My parents were kind enough to travel down to help my paint the baby's room.  We got it all done in one day.  My dad was great about getting all the high parts and did all the touch ups.  It came out just as I had imagined it would.  Guy will put the chair rail up and then all we will need is the furniture, which has been ordered.  I knew if I didn't get it done before I went back to school the baby might have had white walls!!
Mom and I getting started, very glamorous!


This is my crazy dad, he can't help but be silly.

This is the room almost finished.

Final product, next comes the chair rail.

Guy and I traveled to Abilene to visit my roommates and my family.  We had a great time, Bicky and Lance cooked us a wonderful breakfast, we met up for dinner at the Bee Hive and played a bit of Rock Band.  It was wonderful to see my dear
 friends.
