Things are insane around our house these days. I know I posted that I would put up some wedding pictures, but I have honestly had ZERO time to do so. I will find some time this weekend to make that happen since we have nothing major going on (thankfully)!
Two weekends ago, we went to visit my parents in Waco and to see their brand new house that my mom and dad designed! It looks amazing. My mom did such a good job on the details, and I can't wait for it to come together finally. Since we left, she has put up blinds and drapery, installed surround sound throughout the house, and installed satellite TV in each room. Needless to say, we will be returning for a visit soon.
Last weekend, Mark's parents came to Fort Worth for a visit. We went to the zoo, out to eat, played spades, and filled every last ounce of our time. I fear that our next visit with them will be much less exciting. We sort of pulled out the big guns on this trip, so we will have to scrap up some new material for next time. They also visited another church with us (which was not a keeper), and we even did some geocaching!
Mark's job search is going.... just going. He is definitely trying so hard to find something, and each time we think we're getting somewhere with a lead, there is a roadblock or no one calls back. I am praying so hard for him, and I am so proud of his patience and perserverance, but it does get frustrating at times. God will provide for us. Thankfully I have a great job, and we are not struggling to make it. I just can't buy new clothes and a new pair of shoes every week like before. BUMMER! Sacrifices are worth it (if it means my husbands loves me in old clothes and old shoes).
Mark and Megan Price are doing great is Fort Worth so far in 2009!

Day 25...
These last 25 days have been the most fun! Last night, I looked at Mark over my veggie sub from Subway, and just said out loud, "I am having the most fun with you these days!" This was after we really sucked wind running in the park, so I said it rather breathlessly. Even so, I meant it.
We have filled our time with the following activities (some sporadic, and some done ever day religiously...)
1. Watched the Office on Netflix (in HD on our amazing TV, Stanley)
2. Played tennis (and I am actually getting better - good enough to play a couple matches)
3. Started running in the park (Every weekday)
4. Went grocery shopping twice
5. Had nachos at CHIMY's (and found out my cousin works there)
6. Visited Uptown Dallas with our brother and sister-in-law & many friends
7. Began looking for a house (This one is the most exciting besides watching the Office!)
8. Shopped for Blu-Ray movies (since we got the player as a wedding gift from Adam)
9. Opened all of the cards from the wedding (We had my mom mail them all to us because we couldn't wait)
10. Cooked dinner at home more than we've eaten out
There is so much that we've done, so those are really my top 10. I am sure Mark will read this and mention something even better that I have forgotten, so I will write about that in my next post.
I will just tell you about our neighbors around us, which makes apartment living so much more exciting.
The people below us are married with two small children. They live at our apartment complex as a part of their ministry that they lead called CARES, which probably stands for something prolific, but who knows. Basically they live in a complex and plan special events (game night, dessert night, etc.) and go around meeting and making relationships. Well, they live directly below me so I run into them a lot as well as hear a lot of what goes on inside and outside of their apartment. One night I heard yelling because my windows were open. I turned all the lights off (like good neighbors do when they want to get a good look outside), and the wife was storming off, and then jumped in her car and flew away. The husband came out a second later out with the young daughter yelling, "Don't cry sweetie. It's not fair she's taking this out on you..." and took off walking in the direction in which the lady drove. Not sure why, but he just walked off with the daughter yelling all the way. After that, I never saw them together for almost 7 weeks.
Last night, Mark and I noticed them moving out.
