Fun times...

Things here in Houston are still fairly hectic but we have definitely settled into a routine. Janni seems so comfortable in his new home. I frequently have people ask me how it is to have a "strange kid" living with us and the question always disconcerts me for a minute. He truly is a part of this family. He does chores, helps bathe the dog, and teases his siblings.

They all get along really well. Last night Hunter and Max were DJ-ing a high school party. Janni was smart and went with the girls -

They all said they had fun. It was one of those conversations where no one really volunteered too much information so I'm assuming all went well!

Some cool cousins from Nebraska are in town and they brought Janni his very own Husker shirt. Tom has him totally brainwashed into being a Nebraska fan...

Though he didn't make the final three for Homecoming Court (can I demand a re-count?!) it is so apparent that he is extremely well-liked by his peers. Friday a group of the girls helped him choose his outfit for the Homecoming Dance. Surprisingly enough it was pretty easy for the gang to reach consensus on what he should wear. But you'll have to wait and see the photos - no spoilers here!!

Janni is spending today at Reliant Stadium for the Texans game, joining Wes and his family as they tailgate and watch the team take on the Titans. So far Janni has loved high school football so I can't wait to hear what he thinks about the "big time."
