New Roomie

Meet Maximus Meridius Decimus Optimus Prime...or Fang for short. =)

He's the new addition to 1028 and is the BEST roomie we could have asked for. Snuggly, playful, soft, "helps" with the house work, and affectionate. He enjoys long walks on the beach, listening to Louie Armstrong, and waxing his DeLorean. =)

A friend from our community group forwarded an email from his friends who were looking for a good home for their precious feline as their ADORABLE baby was allergic. Attached were pictures of the little stinker. His pictures pretty much made up 98% of the decision to snatch him up. So cute! We set up a time to go and visit with the little guy to see how he was in person. I wasn't able to make it, but Jamie went and next thing I knew I got a text that read, "He's ours!" I worked 21 hours that day so coming home to such a loving and sweet kitty was such a blessing to my long day!! And what's more awesome is that his former owners live right down the street from us so they can keep close tabs on him still.

Thank you guys and PLEASE come visit anytime!!

New Love and Old Love

If I could re-live the night of March 7, 2010 everyday, I would.

I had been waiting for that evening months in advance. Needtobreathe aka Best Band E.V.E.R. would be playing in Austin. Not sure if I've raved about them enough on here, but they truly are awesome and, if possible, even more incredible live. Love 'em!!.....old love.

I hardly ever recognize opening bands and it was the same for that night. BUT, opening bands tend to find their way to my heart and ears quickly. (That's exactly how I came upon the amazing treasure of Needtobreathe). Stephen Kellogg & the Sixers were no different. They'll probably never replace N2B's place in my heart, let's be real, but they were AWESOME!.....new love.

Here's a snippet of each. I dare you to NOT find your lips singing along and your foot tapping away.
