This and That

We have been pretty busy this week! Grant had orientation Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday, met with the IT guys at Baylor to get all of his computers set up and installed this morning and had several meetings this afternoon. He has a full day of meetings tomorrow. I got a call from a dentist office last Friday asking me if I wanted to work this week while one of their girls was on vacation. I was very excited to have something to do! I have worked every day this week and it has been nice getting up and going to work again. I know. . . that's something that you don't expect to hear someone say, but after a month of being off work, I was really ready! I like the office where I am working. It is a new office and the building is beautiful. It is less than five minutes from our house so that's nice too. It is a VERY laid back office and not very busy. This is MUCH different that what I am used to. I even worked by myself two days this week. Yes. They knew me for less than a day and left me in charge of their practice all alone :-) They really want me to work part time right now because they are not busy enough to hire me full time, but I am hoping that after a little while it might work out for me to work full time. We will see. In the mean time, I am enjoying it! I spent all day yesterday working on some marketing for them putting together toothbrushes and pamphlets and taking them to different places in town.

On Tuesday night, Grant and I went to a dinner at Baylor for all new faculty. It was very nice and I got to meet some of the people that Grant will be working with along with several other people that I think we will be friends with. Ironically enough, Grant has met several people from Clemson, Columbia and USC. Small world. We are having dinner with two other couples next Saturday night that are from SC. One of the guys actually graduated from Clemson the same year as Grant and they seem to have a lot in common. I met his wife who is the Chief of Staff to the Provost and she was so nice! I am looking forward to that dinner and making new friends :-) At the dinner, we won the centerpiece on our table. I thought the flowers were pretty. 

This week I also got my sewing supplies and machines out. Thankfully, we were able to find most of it in the room of boxes :-) It was so fun to sew again. I can finally catch up on some overdue baby gifts!! 

Mom told me that the weather in Greenville was really nice this week and she could feel fall coming! Well, I'll have you know that here in Texas, we are having a cold front coming through!! 

Yes. This is what they are calling a cold front. It has been 100 degrees or hotter for the past 46 days so I guess you can call 93 degrees a cold front. I am so ready for fall! 

There is only one Target in Waco. I know. Sad, right?? BUT. Have you ever heard of Target Greatland?? That's how we roll in Waco! It's HUGE! 

I know this post is random but I just wanted to catch you all up on what's been going on with us. We are finally feeling like we are getting settled (minus having a house) and are really liking it here. We miss our friends and family so much, but are looking forward to having them come and visit soon!! (hint hint!!!)

I will leave you with a few pictures of my two loves. Hope you all have a great weekend!

My new favorite!!!!!!!! Love these two :-)
