Some "FIRSTS"

Here is the first rose of 2008 on one of our rose bushes. This poor bush is one I have written about before. It was on its last stump when we transplanted it right after we moved here. With much coaching and conversing with it, it produced wonderful roses last year. Looks like shes ready for the same this year.



This is the first picture of the year for our flower garden. And of course a shot of Eli's "blue" ball. We call it a blue ball because he knows his large ball as that and his small Kong ball as the red ball (it actually is red). Of course, dogs are colored blind, but it doesn't seem to make him any difference. He knows which one to go get when we tell him.

One more first......


WE RECEIVED OUR FIRST OFFER ON THE LUBBOCK HOUSE!!!!!

Naturally we were all over it like flies on stink! If I had the courage I would say it is less than we wanted....buy hey, it's under contract and things are looking good for a May 13th close date.
YEAH!!!!! Praise God!!!

Yes indeed, we ARE excited. The inspection is planned for Thursday so that should be one more hurdle.

Oh what a relief it will be when this is over!
