You Can't Tell How Deep A Puddle Is Until You Step In It

"You Can't Tell How Deep A Puddle Is Until You Step In It"

This week that quote has multiple meanings for us. First, it's quite literal. It rained a couple of times in the past few days and so created a lot of wetness. I took Emma to the field at the park next to our house Tuesday. It was incredibly muddy. And of course, Emma wanted to play in the mud, and in the mud only. It was not any fun trying to get her back on a leash and I got really muddy and wet as well. And then today, Wednesday, I took Emma to the dog park to try and avoid the wet field. The dog park was a major bummer. Not only was Emma the only dog there, but it was puddly as well. And again, Emma loved every minute of the park while she was playing in the puddles. She had to bring her toys into the mud and also tried to dig in it. Then after Emma was all wet, she decided it would be a great idea to go dig a hole to get dry dirt all over her wet body. And following tradition, she then had to sit in said hole. 

So much fun to splash around!

Empty Dog Park =(

Got to bring my tennis ball into the slush.

Emma tried very hard to dig a hole in the puddle

Dig, dig, dig, dig...

... dig, dig, dig, dig....

Ah, happy doggy. 

And the seconding meaning to that quote is less literal. Miguel and I made an offer on a house today. I love this house! It's in a part of Savannah that I really like. Just driving around the area makes my soul dance a little. I love the energy. I think I really missed the energy of people while living on the islands. The thing about the house is that it was built in 1924. And while I love the historic details of the house it could turn into a money pit. We definitely want to avoid that! So after we hear back about our offer (which I'm sure will get countered) and if we end up getting the house, it will be interesting to see how inspections go. So... if you could all say a prayer for us and our house situation, we'd very much appreciate it!

I love the historic details of the house, like the original hardwood floors, the old french doors, and the crystal door knobs!
