Halloween has come and gone. We did not have the turnout of people like we did in Lafayette, but we did get to meet a lot of our friendly neighbors who we had not met yet. All and all, we had a fun night.
We are almost ready for Halloween Night. This is our first Halloween in Katy and we are not sure how many people will walk the neighborhood. I don't know if it will compare to Lafayette's Halloween which brought about 500+ Trick or Treaters through our old neighborhood.
On September 26th 2006, we decided to go on a Dolphin Tour as we had heard about it before but never had gone. Some of our friends had been and said that we really needed to go. Click the link below to see picture from the trip. The dolphins were really neat to watch.
On September 25th 2006 we were on our way to Gulf Shores to enjoy an anniversary. We decided to go to the Naval Museum to see what it was all about. We thoroughly enjoyed the tour. Here are a few pictures that we took while we were there.
We had a few friends (Willie, Debbie, Rodney, Joanne, Tammy and Carl aka 'Chicken Little') come visit us a couple of weekends ago. We all took a field trip to the new HEB store over here in Katy. One guy got his picture taken with "Tony". Boy was that fun..... In all seriousness, we thouroughly enjoyed everyone's company and will always leave the light on for anyone passing thru.
We have been busy for two solid days in our front yard. We installed stone landscaping around the front of our home and ringed both of the trees along with some flowers.
Today we had water sprinklers installed. The guys were here and 8:30 this morning and installed a 7 zone sprinkler system. No more watering when I get home from work anymore. Yippee!
For the past couple of weeks, people have suggested that we get a swimming pool. I think that Sheree' had started wanting one until we found out we are pregnant. However, when I got home from work this evening, we had one in our front yard. The water has receeded, but the lovely hole is still there. A 6 to 8 foot diameter sinkhole about 12 to 18 inches deep has formed between our neighbors house and ours. Guess I know what i'll be doing tomorrow.
For all of you who do no believe in the accuracy of the home pregnancy tests, here you go. Today the doctor confirmed that we are in fact pregnant. The funny thing is that he used the same pregnancy test as we did to confirm it. Sheree and I are so excited about what is happening to our lives and are planning for the wonderful journey and experience that lies ahead.
A few days ago, Sheree' and I found out that we are pregnant. Both of us are extremely excited of the news and have already started planning for the months and years ahead. It is funny how you think you have everything organized' then you realize that your are not. Please continue to check out our "Baby Section"http://www.mattandree.com/baby as the months roll by.
The picture to the left was taken at Billy Bob's on July 3rd before the festivities began. And here are some of the pictures from the picnic. There was definitely a diverse crowd of people at this event. Enjoy..... http://www.mattandree.com/galleries/willies-picnic/willies_picnic.htm
So here we are, the Radisson Hotel in Fort Worth, Texas. We are getting ready to enjoy 2 days of Woodstock (Country Style YEE-HAW). We hope to have some event pictures shortly. To find out more about where and what we are doing here, please check out http://www.williespicnic.com/
Our website has been brought back online. The machine moved from the apartment to the house over the weekend and took a little time to move ISP information. We are also in the process of unpacking everything and will start putting pictures online of our progress when we have time.
My parents came to town this weekend to visit Sheree' and I and to see our new home. They were all so close when all of a sudden their truck broke down. We had it towed to a transmission shop on Saturday and will hear something on Monday about what is wrong with it. We are counting down the days before our movers arrive on Wednesday to unload the truck.
On the way home from work today, I took a picture of my temperature gauge on my rear view mirror. The picture says enough. We should be posting some more pictures tonight of our house. I think we are off to eat and then to shop for some furniture.
