Houston skyline at night, from a local bar we visited for the first time last night (Dogwood). Links to this post. Saturday, October 11, 2014. Today marks 3 weeks since we moved in! We are LOVING our new neighborhood and Smokey likes it too. A few of our recent adventures:. Kevin took Smokey to get his haircut and they didn't have to get in a car, he was able to walk him there and back. Carol's favor...

The Tuckers: May 2014
http://cktuckerlife.blogspot.com/2014_05_01_archive.html
Wednesday, May 21, 2014. One of my welcome home signs courtesy of Kevin :). Links to this post. Sunday, May 18, 2014. We've been talking for quite some time about wanting to move back into town, and have decided to do more than talk and are taking steps towards achieving that goal. We called a realtor a couple of weeks back (5/5), have gotten pre-approval for a loan, and have been crunching the numbers like mad to see what will work for us. And really get to work when we get back. Links to this post.

The Tuckers: March 2015
http://cktuckerlife.blogspot.com/2015_03_01_archive.html
Friday, March 27, 2015. I know that some parts of the country still have snow on the ground (sorry Delena), in Texas its finally starting to feel like spring! Saw these lovely bluebonnets on my way into the office today. I love the one random yellow flower in the bunch of bluebonnets.be prepared for your social media to be taken over by blue bonnet photos. What have we been up to? Lots of working, and lots of wedding party planning - hard to believe my sister's wedding is less than 2 months away! Gearing...

The Tuckers: January 2015
http://cktuckerlife.blogspot.com/2015_01_01_archive.html
Friday, January 2, 2015. Our last dinner of 2014 was delicious, K had the idea to try to replicate a meal we'd had at union kitchen and we did a pretty good job of it - a steak placed on top of a polenta cake and arugula. It was our first time to make polenta and arugula and it all turned out great! We already have ideas on how to improve but not a bad first try! Lessons learned (recipes we used are linked):. Next time we want to pan fry it to make it crispy. Links to this post. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

The Tuckers: Second bedroom re-do
http://cktuckerlife.blogspot.com/2015/04/second-bedroom-re-do.html
Sunday, April 19, 2015. We now have a totally different room downstairs (second bedroom), and it will work much better for us. This room has been usable but not great since we moved, we've just been making use of furniture that we already had. Now its like a whole new room. Nothing like a deadline to get us moving! I mean short literally, as in not tall, since the couch isn't all that long. I suppose a tall person could lay diagonally on it? My mom can tell us how comfortable it is. Looking back at 2015.

The Tuckers: June 2014
http://cktuckerlife.blogspot.com/2014_06_01_archive.html
Sunday, June 22, 2014. Can I go back on vacation? I know I can't, but last week made me wish I could. We've been busy getting our house ready to go on the market and had a few final projects to tackle - mostly clearing out furniture and rearranging furniture for staging (and lots of cleaning) - to have it ready for pictures for the listing and for the showings we hope will come quickly. We went ahead with furniture moving, but were delayed in finishing up our work. Links to this post. Wow, time flies!

The Tuckers: November 2014
http://cktuckerlife.blogspot.com/2014_11_01_archive.html
Sunday, November 16, 2014. We attended the Texas Renaissance Festival yesterday, an annual tradition for us. It was a chilly (colder than we were thinking it would be) and fun day. We watch the weather and just go when it looks right, tough for making plans with others but the best way to do it! We both did a 'joust' on a little metal horse that you ride down a track and try to get your pole through a ring, harder than it looks! We felt a little odd in line with little kids, but are glad we did it! Defin...

Tuesday, May 26, 2015. Today was a memorable day for all of Houston due to the flooding, and for my husband and I because he finally heard about the job he'd interviewed for and was waiting on - he got it! He summed up the process better than I can, and so I just pulled his posting, where he sweetly thanks me, from Facebook. Congratulations, its because of all of your hard work that you will get to be a full-time college professor! Kevin's facebook post to let friends and family know:. Links to this post.
