Home Inspection and a Fish Fry

On Sunday we had the home inspected and were so excited to learn that there are no major problems with the house. It is in really good shape and you can tell it's been taken care of. There are, of course, some little things for us to work on, but that will be fun as we work to make it our house.

Here's Robert in the living room. I think it's funny that he matches the walls! (Which will soon be painted taupe.)



And me in the kitchen - my favorite room in the house.



On Friday, my dad went stripe fishing from 3 a.m. to 10 a.m.!! I can't image spending almost an entire work day fishing, but he did and had a blast. Here's a picture of the 22 lb stripe he caught that is now calling our freezer "home."



Since we had all this fish and also some left over from a couple of deep sea fishing trips, my parents decided to have a fish fry on Sunday night and invited us out for dinner. Robert was supposed to be helping fry the fish. :)



This is David's dog, Cooper Brown. He needs Ritalin. Seriously. This dog is wired. Don't let his gentle look fool you. He's wide open almost all the time. He was beginning to smell bad because he'd go jump in our pond and get all dirty, so dad bought him a little plastic swimming pool. Cooper loves paying in the thing. When we're playing fetch with him we can throw the ball or stick over the water and he'll jump right in. If we're off and miss the water he'll catch it and then jump in himself! It's hilarious.



We ate dinner down at Big Mama and Big Daddy's, who have a house just down the hill from my parent's house. Big Daddy had a wonderful appetite for the fish. He's always been a good eater!



Victoria enjoys sitting with Big Daddy and often points to his room and asks to go back there to see him. For a toddler, she does so good with him, especially since he isn't able to talk back to her.
