There's a first time for everything

*Sigh* .
I have not made my New Year's resolution of keeping up with this blog better. Oh well, whose resolutions really work out anyways.

Puigventures have actually seemed to be laying low recently; we haven't had any things chewed on by our ever so adorable, but incredibly mischievous dog. Nor have we had more people trying to read our license plate but instead hit our magnetic cars. Danielle hasn't been finding herself in any adventures such as get picked out by airport security for "extra security" fun, or burning her hair, or locking her keys in her car 3x in a day. John has also been avoiding make 'snow' in the kitchen, burning bottoms of pots, or electrocuting himself. For the most part things have been calm in the Puigs household. Now that doesn't mean our lives our boring, so don't think about spicing it up with adventure! Oh no, we have had plenty going on but for now I think we can actually say we have been normal.

W o w,
that word has been said in context with me very much in my life. What to do know, things can change as you grow up.
We did have that one night where gunshots went off in our backyard and our neighbor Norma-Jean, yes Norma-Jean told Danielle not to go in the house ' cus somethins in your bushes back there'. But really things have been typical.

So what does TYPICAL look like for John and Danielle? Well let's take a look back at the past few months......

June: Danielle started a new job @ Central Virgina Community Services working as a clinical behavior specialist; We hosted Danielle's sister Joy for 2 weeks and she got to live firsthand a 'day...,or 14 for that matter, of a life in the Puigs', we began looking at houses to buy.

July: Celebrated the 4th of July in Maryland with Danielle's sister and brother-in-law, and extended family; Danielle shot her 1st wedding as the only photographer and John came along as her second shooter (3500 pictures total!), we hosted Johannas( Danielle's little sister) best friend Ronna for a few days after she returned from a mission trip to Brazil, we kept looking for houses

August: VACATION in Brevard for 5 days with the family and celebrated Johanna's Sweet 16 with a Surprise Birthday Party; School started back up so Danielle is beginning her Masters in Education and John is continuing his Masters of Divinity; Recruitment starts for all the missions trips out of John's office at Liberty. We are getting the opportunity to lead the Ethiopia trip together this year! Found a house John liked....Danielle didn't like it. Found a house Danielle Liked....John didn't like it. Found a house we both liked....put a conract on it.....owners were a nightmare contract falls through.

September: Find a new house, a better one even, sign a contract and close October 9th.
