Back in Texas

Well I know that it's been about 6 years since I last updated the blog but have decided that I'm going make an effort to update the blog more frequently. As many of you that are reading this know, Erica and I have moved back to Austin, TX.

South Carolina was good to us and there are definitely things that we will and have missed but it is good to be back in Austin.

I am working at BancVue as a website consultant (or Relationship Manager as they call it). Since I love working on websites, I really am loving my job. Another great thing about my job is that I get to work with my brother. Not many people get an opportunity like that.

Erica is back at Emler Swim school as a manager. She is enjoying being back at the swim school, playing with kids everyday.

One of the biggest things that we have done since we've moved back to Texas is buy a house (2 weeks ago). For those familiar with the Austin area, our house is in Cedar Park. We are super excited about the new home but have a LOT of work to do on the house before we actually move in.

We will be updating the blog with lots of pictures as we progress on the house, since that is what most of our time will be spent doing. Hopefully you enjoy the pics :)

We are ripping out all the floors in the house and redoing them as well as painting the entire house so the rest of the pictures will be demo/painting.

Kitchen with floors removed. If you are asking yourself "Did they rip out hardwood floors?"
You better believe we did, cause we're awesome at life.

So we ripped up a lot of carpet.

Bathroom partially painted.

We still have a ton of work to do one the house but we've done quite a bit already. If anyone is ever in the Austin area and wants some manual labor we will put you to work immediately.

Yay for blogging again. Yay for being back in Austin, TX. Yay for football season starting up soon.
