I wanted to Keep Her!!!

We found a cute brittany spaniel on sunday. We walked around the neighborhood with her and some kids told us where they thaught she lived. No one was home so we left a note
to call. The dog was muddy and we still don't have a backyard fence so we gave her a bath and she hung out inside with us. She was a ball of energy and a cat chaser. Rusty enjoyed having a friend for a day. The owners called us around 7 and Brice walked her back home.

Fishing Trip

My fishing trip was a lot of fun. We left yesterday after work and drove down to Lake Texoma. We had an awesome steak dinner and hung around the cabins. We went out on the boat around 7 this morning...it was about 39 degrees. The first 45 minutes was a little slow....then it seemed like the fish were jumping into our boat. There were times that all six of us had fish hooked at the same time. We hit our limit of fish before 10 and just released the rest of the fish that we caught. "Sparky" cleaned the fish when we got back to the boat dock and divided them into bags for us to bring the fillets home.

Couch Pictures

Here are some pictures of the couch and loveseat. They recline and are really comfortable. I also bought the big area rug....we are waiting for all the wrinkles to fall out before we move it.

I still have my field trial going on...which pretty much means no weekends, even if it's just for a few hours I've had to go out to the lab to check samples. Tonight I'll have samples arriving from the job today around midnight....which means I get to go out to the lab to deal with those (PJ's and all). I am " taking off" next thurday to go fishing down at lake texoma...I'll still have to run into work when I get back and check samples....I don't really have days off with this trial going on. I'm really looking forward to the trip it should be a lot of fun.

Another long week...

This is the beginning of my third week to work at least 55 hours in a row. I went back out to the field again for a frac job to catch samples on Saturday and Monday. Friday night I got to stop by Jaime and Travis's house for a while and see them and play with Bailey...He's turning into a little dude. Today it rained all morning on me when I was out on the job, so I was cold and wet for most of the day. It wasn't too bad...but i was super muddy and Halliburton truck is covered with mud both inside and out.



I still need to put up pics of the couch...we ordered a rug and it was defective so we had to send it back...we have bad luck. But I'll try to put those pictures up soon.






2 year...Brice got and X-box

and I got a couch...that he really likes to share with Jack
