Moving to Texas: Day 2

So, yesterday I said I'd be unpacking my bedroom today. Promises, promises. That didn't get done for two reasons - 1) I woke up feeling really woozy and generally awful and stayed that way until around 2pm and 2) I ADOPTED MY DOG TODAY! The shelter named him Rigby and I thought it so cute that I kept it. He's amazing and I'm already head over heels for him.

As another amazing discovery of my house, we found a little plate on the front door that reads, "cead mile failte" which is Irish for "one hundred thousand welcomes" and is, according to my 2-minute expert Wikipedia research, a traditional welcome. My house is so full of awesome.


Here are some pics of my sweet pup and the local wildlife we met this evening. More tomorrow!

Rigby and I on the ride home!

First trip to the park! Rigs still isn't crazy about the leash, but he's learning.

After the park, we found this majestic beast who I will probably refer to as Crookshanks. He was just stopping by to welcome us to the neighborhood. Neither he nor Rigby had any objections to each other.

This is a blurry pick of one of the TWENTY deer we saw around the neighborhood near sundown. This place is full of them!
