We're way behind...

(Seriously, where have we been?)

Alright, I've now been told my multiple people that our blog sucks...

I have completely let it die... mainly because we are so behind the thought of catching everyone up is overwhelming, so here comes the update in 1 blog.

Overall, things are going well. Madelyn is still working hard on her classes to become a certified financial planner (C.F.P.) through the University of Texas. The classes are two nights a week, and with her full time job she's studying almost every night. She will be in these classes until the fall. I don't know how she's doing it... but it's pretty amazing.

I've been busy with a little side project... with my previous work experience in the concert business I was asked to start managing (or friendaging) a band... right now I'm focused on booking and setting up regional tours and lending an opinion on band direction. Earlier this month I went to Las Vegas (and SLC) to have a meeting with the band and some industry professionals (and visit the family). It's really fun to be working with music again, and I've realized how much I've missed it. Some of you may have heard of this band.

In a previous post Madelyn and I talked about foster puppies... well, we did it again. This time we took two puppies who were on the euthanasia list, we nursed them back to health, got them used to human contact, and then they went up for adoption. Madelyn and I went to pick them up after an adoption day and got there just in time to watch one of them be adopted. Watching a puppy that was scheduled to die two weeks earlier and who was completely afraid of people be adopted by a nice family was definitely the highlight so far this year. We're doing it again, but after two weeks of 8 week old puppies in your house it's time for a break!

Other then that we've just been trying to go out with friends while we can...

Madelyn hosted a "Flight of the Conchords" tea party while I was in Vegas, which I hear was a big hit.

We hosted a last minute Oscar party at our house last weekend.

(see how bad we need grass?!)

The biggest news of this month was GRASS... it's coming! Madelyn have picked out the landscaper, we have the quote, we're just waiting on Uncle Sam to deposit our money! So, there will be plenty of blogs about that in the future.
