It was Nik's idea to start a blog :) I will not take credit for this. Since we moved away from Wisconsin we wanted to keep in touch with everyone and keep you updated on our life.
We have been living in our new house for 1 month! It is starting to pull together. Some pictures of the house are posted above. The house is really big for us.. 4 bedrooms which means we have room to grow.. but not yet :) Brady has his own fenced in backyard where we can let him run around. Unfortunately, about 2 weeks ago, we came home from Chicago and he is limping on 3 legs. Nik brought him to the vet and they thought he partially tore his ACL. They told us we needed to keep him calm for 30 days. Not sure how you are supposed to keep our 3 year old chocolate lab calm. It has been a challenge. We weren't able to go to a wedding in Madison or to my families cabin for the 4th because we didn't want him to keep hurt more. I guess this is what kids will be like?!?! If he tore it more he would need surgery and that would cost $3,000. So we needed to keep it safe. Nik called today and now they said if he is walking fine, he probably just sprained it and we can ease him into his normal routines. Thank goodness!
Other than that, Nik and I have been exploring the Twin Cities. We celebrated our 1st anniversary with a day around the city. Nik planned the whole day!! It was great :) We have been to a couple of Twins games, Festivals, and have been just checking the bars and restaurants out. We really like our neighbor. Its nice that we have a park and path right behind our house. Easy access to walks and runs. We meet some neighbors, but not all. I want to meet friends to hang out with but its kinda hard. We have had a great time with my cousin Steve and his girlfriend Emily. Thank goodness we have them to hang out with! Its been fun!
Well that is all for our first post! Hope you enjoy are updates!
