The House Chronicles...

OK, I know we haven't posted pictures yet...

And...I know we haven't posted anything in a while...

BUT!....

Things are coming along well.  All our stuff (except for Andrea's bike) is at our place and things are coming together nicely.  The dogs like the house.  In fact, Hanalei likes the house so much that she can't seem to stop herself from chewing on it. Yeah, I have a feeling that my non-existant carpentry skills will suddenly become existant.  That 9 lb. puppy can really chew through a lot in a short amount of time! 

Other than that, we are just starting to settle into somewhat of a routine.  Because we're next to a lot of farm land and a lot of...nothing...it feels like we live far, far away.  However, I think we're merely far away.  I'm sure it will all grow on us.

Favorite thing so far: having enough space to live in.
Not-so-favorite thing: our green trash can. I think something died in it. It literally makes me gag.

finally....

We have finally moved into our new house nearly a week-and-a-half after we were supposed to close.  It was a stressful weekend but it is finally over.  Now we must sort through all of our stuff and begin the slow process of putting everything in its place.  Even though it will take a while I can already tell that we're really gonna like this house.  

The dogs seem to like it so far.  The move doesn't seem to have had any effect on them other than causing them excitement to explore a new place. They have lots of room to run around in and I think they love it! 

We're closer to Andrea's work but we're much further from mine. However, this isn't necessarily a bad thing.  We live very close to the ASU Polytechnic campus and I can take the intercampus shuttle to and from work.  I can save on gas and reduce the wear & tear on my little Civic.  Woo hoo!

We'll try to put up pictures as soon as we can :-)

The Alleys: Est. 11/11/2007

Andrea is a mom to two "fur-babies," an amateur seamstress and homemaker a la Martha Stewart and Rachael Ray, a connoisseur of imported beers, an upcoming barista and restaurant manager, a Petlane Pet Advisor, an Icelander at heart, an occasional vegetarian, and a self-proclaimed correcter of grammatical errors (a.k.a. "grammar Nazi"). The intensity of her beauty is matched only by the passion she has for life. And she loves her husband more than life itself (yes, Cody wrote that part).

Cody is 100% lovable nerd and a budding musician. He is a thoughtful theologian, cultural critic, artist at heart, movie trivia buff, and fellow dog lover. He loves adventure, travel and seeking out everything that God has planned for him, which may or may not be his day job as an Academic Advisor at ASU, but it's a good way to pay the bills for now. His biggest desire is to go to seminary (although this really depends on the day) and his sense of humor is one of many things that others love most about him. He takes amazing care of his wife and their "fur-kids" (though he prefers to be called a "dog owner." Whatever.). He loves his wife more than life itself (he wrote that all on his own).

Together, the Alleys are navigating this thing called life by seeking out the Lord's guidance and wisdom. They love getting to know each other more and more every day. There is so much to learn and experience and this is where you'll find their journey.
