Couch from 3/4 to 1 and a 1/4

So thanks to Mom and Dad who so graciously drove their truck and picked up our new couch with us at Ikea and drove it up to Logan as an extra curricular activity to their original trip to Aunt Marcy's B-day Party, we now have a new couch. ...

And to help avoid the devouring of this couch we made sure to give Howie an alternative to getting on the couch. We don't let him on the new one so I made some significant alterations to the old couch using an end table and wah lah Howies new sweet spot...


Well that pretty much wraps up the new news from us. Have a preemptive Happy Halloween!

A date and 3/4 of a couch.

So although we go out to eat occasionally Naoko and I had fallen away from actual dates. So we hit the town going out all dressed up and went to a semi fancy restaurant (the food was so-so). After that we went and ate dessert at a french bakery. We topped it off by seeing the Dark Knight which we both enjoyed.

The other day when I was working Naoko came to visit me on my break and little did we know how Howie learned that if he shoved the baby gate hard enough with his nose that he could get it to slide enough that he could by. Well with the new found freedom he got a little bored and started to pick at a few small tears in the couch. This is where he left off when Naoko got back.

WHO ME ???

Playing catch up

So I am not even begin to try and post everything that has gone on since the last blog I posted. My sister Emily has a lot more gumption when it comes to that I guess. So the game plan is to just put a bucket load of pictures up and let you make you own conclusions about what we've done and how well we enjoyed it. Hopefully I can try to post more frequently and keep up a little better now. Anyway here goes nothing ...
