our new home

well, we made it to houston--we are now texans! i'm still getting used to this big state and this big city with it's big highways and big storms, but so far we've been having a lot of fun! too much fun to find any time for blogging. but we've been here for about 7 weeks now so it's about time for an update!


our new home! isn't it beautiful?! definitely an upgrade from our student married apt in provo. we love this place. we have a king-sized bed, we each have our own bathroom, there's a media room with tivo, ping pong table, pool table, gourmet kitchen, piano, pool, hot-tub, and i could go on but the best part is that's its all free! yep we got a killer deal.

 we're on a cul de sac, right next to a small lake, with no neighbors, we love going for walks and bike rides around the lakes in the subdivision.

ahhh yeah my favorite part, the pool and hot tub.
 i try and spend as much time out here as i can!


oh and we can't forget our new roommates!
we all get along really well and so far they've been pretty easy to live with. they're quiet, they go to bed early, they pick up after themselves, and lot of times they'll even do the cooking! we even hang out. we've gone to an astro's baseball game--where the astro's won! we've gone out to eat a bunch, we play doubles tennis together, swim together and even play some games! we've got a pretty sweet deal going on here. (thanks mom and dad!)

yep so far life in texas has been pretty good. kyle got a job as a med tech at a local hospital, i'm cleaning people's teeth, kyle found some guys to play soccer with, i've joined a tennis group, and when we're not working we like to take walks together, ride bikes around the subdivision, workout at the the neighborhood fitness center, play tennis together, swim, play ping pong, watch tv on the huge projector screen and take some fun little trips around our area of texas.
