Moving Day - Part one

(Here's where we are living...)

We moved in two stages...Part one involved loading and unloading the 20 suitcases we brought from London into the new house...Part two involved going to Beaumont to pick up all the furniture and boxes my parents helped us store (Thanks again mom and dad for helping us to store things, pack things up and get them back to Dallas!)

Labor Day burgers with friends

Alex grilled some fantastic burgers and some friends came over to visit on Labor Day. Despite the near 100 degree temps, we enjoyed sitting out on the patio and catching up.

Night on the town without Ruby

Alex and I went to a wedding Saturday night while Mrs. Macnab watched Ruby. We had a nice evening without a baby in tow.

Video - New Laughing Noises

We are always looking for new ways to make Ruby smile and laugh because it is just so cute! Yesterday we discovered that putting our face on Ruby's chest works pretty well...funny video.

Sunday night BBQ

We met Kate, Allen, Alex at the Hard Eight BBQ restaurant on Sunday night. We had some fantastic ribs, brisket and sausage and listened to live music in the background.

Ruby's first trip to Tom Thumb (grocery store)

We took Ruby to Tom Thumb and carried her facing forward in her baby carrier. She loved looking at all the fruits and veggies!

Alex and I were amazed at the selection of types of mayo, BBQ sauce, good fresh seafood, salad dressings, etc! Everything is so much different than London. We look forward to doing a shrimp boil, grilling some good Texas steaks, and trying out all of our old favorites!

Mmmmm...tex mex food!

Alex and I had our first tex mex meal since returning from London! It was delicious....we really missed good chips and salsa!
