Considering Us

You know those teachers who make everyone go around the room and tell something interesting about themselves? When I was in law school and I had the rare professor who thought that law students gave two shakes about the interesting facts of their classmates, I would always say the same thing: "My husband is a local TV weatherman." That's right, the interesting thing about me was actually that my husband was interesting. And now that Johnny quit TV and has an ordinary job (albeit at an extraordinary company), I never know what to say when asked for an "interesting fact" about myself. So this "about us" page? It could get tricky.


We started this blog a few years ago as a way to keep in touch with our friends and family in Nebraska as we made our way into our new life in Texas. So join us as we talk about being new parents, new homeowners,new Texans, and (not so) newlyweds. 

The Husband
TV weatherman turned Server Hosting Whatchamacallit Person.Talks a big game about becoming a specialist in all things "make your own Chinese Food." The closest he's come is getting take out from China Garden. And one time...he basically poured a mango smoothie on top of a chicken breast and called it "dinner".


The Wife
Awesome law student turned boring corporate lawyer. Has tried to make the following things "happen": 
  • Air "guns" with thumb and forefinger instead of waving hello
  • The phrase "Hey there, Sports Fans!"
  • "Fetch" but I've been told to stop trying to make it happen. It's not going to happen.


The Baby
Graced the world with his unpredictable self 2 weeks early on March 7, 2010. Overcame GERD and severe food allergies to be a smart, exploratory, happy kid...who doesn't scream 24 hours a day anymore. It's the little things. We are pretty sure his first word was "fetch". 


The Dog
Gives movie star dog Marley a run for his money on the "most destructive dog ever" front. The day I write this he has just broken our back door by ripping the window frame clean off. All because he felt he'd been outside for too long. Apparently 5 minutes is too long. We aren't besties. 


So behold the adventures of John, Molly, Jack and their dog, Truman. They're boldly going where no John, Molly, Jack, Truman combination have ever gone before!
