Wednesday, June 8, 2011. So what in the world are we up to now, you might ask. Well it’s been eight weeks now since we have moved back to Texas. You would think that would be sufficient time to get re-adjusted to life in the states but after living abroad for almost five years, sometimes we feel more foreign than we do normal! It doesn’t help that we came home because of unforeseen reasons but God is proving as always that His ways are clearly not our ways anyway. The director of the RN program said he w...

The Durands: Still Working : )
http://the5durands.blogspot.com/2013/08/still-working.html
Jeff, Tricia, Addi, Jackson and Laura. Still Working : ). I don't really remember all the workouts from the last week and a half. I can say that it's hard to believe August is here! I have 6 weeks until the Triathlon! We were at the lake this week and I worked out Thursday, Friday, and Saturday. Later in the day I swam at Sandy Beach while the kids played. Not sure how far but it was enough. Saturday: First time to do all three together! I have to brag on Jeff. I had gotten all my gear ready on Frida...

The Durands: January 2011
http://the5durands.blogspot.com/2011_01_01_archive.html
Jeff, Tricia, Addi, Jackson and Laura. Something to think about. This post is for women, specifically you stay-at-home mom's. And maybe you working moms, too. Whoever, really. Just saying, this isn't a picture filled post for the grands. 10 Grace –. 10, it hit close to home. And that's all I'm going to say about that. Any of you mom's/wives feeling me on this one? It's been a while. 4 months to be exact. We've been up to a lot and I'll just let the next bazillion pictures do the talking : ). On the way t...

Our crazy life: December 2010
http://andylisa-texasrebel.blogspot.com/2010_12_01_archive.html
Wednesday, December 22, 2010. Yes I have been lacking on the blog, as my husband reminds me daily. In less than a week we traveled 1800 miles and I don't even want to know what that number is going to be once we get back to Savannah. Suffice it to say, we had an oil change when we left and we are a few hundred shy of needing another one. We boarded them at the Petsmart Pet Hotel and can not recommend them enough! Friday, December 10, 2010. Saturday, December 4, 2010. I still have my online account, but I...

Our crazy life: March 2011
http://andylisa-texasrebel.blogspot.com/2011_03_01_archive.html
Tuesday, March 29, 2011. I used to enjoy this class and its a great workout. I am used to some pain or discomfort following a hard workout, but I have to draw the line at some point. The point was made clear today. If the workout causes your tail bone and butt bone (pelvis? To hurt so bad that you can't sit comfortably, then it isn't for me. So maybe when I need to change some things up I will re-explore the class, but for now, my butt will not be on that seat any time soon. Sunday, March 27, 2011. But m...

The Durands: Relaxing in the Lake + Biking
http://the5durands.blogspot.com/2013/07/relaxing-in-lake-biking.html
Jeff, Tricia, Addi, Jackson and Laura. Relaxing in the Lake Biking. First of all, biking is fun! I love zooming around, exploring parks and roads. Saturday I rode the Trinity Trail out of Benbrook and also all around the lake (Benbrook). SO fun! I am still learning how and when to shift the gears for maximum effectiveness and all that, so the area around the lake gave me a lot of practice. Then I headed down the Trinity Trail and didn't turn around until I went under I-20.crazy! Thats awesome - way to go!

The Butcher Block: November 2010
http://thebutcherblock2.blogspot.com/2010_11_01_archive.html
Wednesday, November 17, 2010. Just in case your curious about what a home might look like here in. A typical wooden style home (Outside). Inside the wooden home. you can see the dinning room table, the armoir and the stove. This is a very common mud home just outside the city, built of just that sticks and mud! And what I like to call a "sign" home. built of. you guessed it, signs! I have yet to find a "middle class" here, it seems that you are either very impoverished or very rich! Links to this post.

Our crazy life: I outsmarted Jake
http://andylisa-texasrebel.blogspot.com/2011/10/i-outsmarted-jake.html
Friday, October 21, 2011. Victory. Its sweet. When we transitioned the kids to their big kid beds a couple of months ago, I put a baby gate up at their doorway so no children could escape to the playroom at 3am to play. This past month, we have started taking the baby gate down once they were asleep. However over the past couple of weeks I have noticed a trend that Jake was getting up earlier and earlier each morning. Yesterday however, Jake was up at 6am. December 2, 2011 at 11:10 AM. These Four No More.

The Durands: Killer Run + 1st, 2nd, and 3rd Lake Swims
http://the5durands.blogspot.com/2013/07/killer-run-1st-2nd-and-3rd-lake-swims.html
Jeff, Tricia, Addi, Jackson and Laura. Killer Run 1st, 2nd, and 3rd Lake Swims. We went to the lake on Monday. It had been raining a lot so I figured the bike ride was out of the question. If I can't keep the bike upright in a smooth, dry parking lot.well, I have no business riding on slick, wet roads. So I skipped my much anticipated first hilly bike ride. Jeff and I went for a run instead. It was in the 60's outside (in July.what? And raining. The run was awesome. The next day, I swam before doing any ...
