Ch, Ch, Ch, Changes!

My oh my how things have changed in the House of Gillespie. Let me start by setting things straight. We are doing well. Really well, in fact. After 39 years of worrying about what the masses think of me and my choices I have grown up, ( I think), and have started to make decisions based on -- well whatever I'm rambling. Decision #1 We have moved out of Brenham and to Hilltop back in August 2009. Griffin was not a happy camper about this -- at all. He was out numbered in the family vote.

We had to tell the renter that lived in our Hilltop House to scat.... and well, he was not eager, to say the least. Finally, he got over it, found another abode and we came back to our home (incidentally, I had not been back here in 3+ years!) We walked in for the first time to find the doorknob missing from the front entry, and it smelled like smoke, wet dog, and a 70's fish fry.

A Little Piece of Paradise

My fantastic brother Ryan entertained us during Spring Break by taking us to Hamilton Pool in Austin. Amazingly cool place highly recommend going if you enjoy hiking and almost busting your butt in order to see the coolest waterfall and cavern/cave-like structure. OMG I look so fat in this picture but the good news was that I lost a pound from the trek.
