First Post :)

I've had several friends at LSU writing blogs, so I've decided to try my hand at blogging. We shall see how it goes!! I had hoped to write the first post last night, but our little puppy, Peaches, had to be put to sleep. She has had distemper for the last two weeks, which is fatal in half of the cases. We are so sad because this is the third pet we have had since we got married last summer and all three have died.

I am going to try to use this blog to show all of the things I do this summer. My husband (Brandon) and I made a list of 25 things we want to do this summer. We have been in a "fix up our little house" mood, so many of the items on the list relate to our home. Hopefully, we will be able to do all of the items on the list, as well as add to the list. I hope you will enjoy reading about all of our adventures this summer. I am looking forward to sharing them, along with pictures, of course. Here is our list we compiled the other evening!
