Tonight I get to cross another thing off my list.  The thing I’ve been wanting to achieve the most since I made that list. 

GET A JOB

Yep, after many months of praying, and applying, being hopeful one day, and feeling really discouraged the next, I was offered a full time, permanant job!  I’ll be returning to my credit [...]

As the month of “Thanksgiving” begins today, there is so much to be grateful for!  This past week I enjoyed:
A new camera- since I lost our last one and there are many photo worthy events coming up this month we decided to grab another camera.  That means, pictures will return to the blog!
Sounders Game- Jeremy [...]

A Fantastic evening full of delicious food, awesome company and so many laughs!
On the mend… I was sick that last half of the week but I’m feeling better now.
A Great Saturday evening with Jeremy… we planned to watch the Sounders game at home.  We started with victory tacos (a little presumptuous) and then game home [...]

It has been almost two weeks since I did my last blessings post and there is so much to be grateful for, here’s a quick run down…
-The Atonement and Resurrection of our Savior
-Family dinner with the Foote Family
-Seeds shared with us to start our garden
-Family Reunion with the Smith Family
-Jeremy safely driving the 9+ hours [...]

Vacation- As our last post explained, Jeremy and I enjoyed a relaxing vacation. Jeremy definitely deserved and needed it after a few very stressful weeks at work! I loved every minute of just hanging out with him and the sun.
A lazy Saturday- After vacation we both had extremely busy weeks (which is harder [...]

The Red Season- February 14th marks the beginning of strawberry season.  At least that’s what my mom once told me.  And for that reason I like Valentines day.  There’s nothing better than ripe strawberries.  I remember once when I was having a sleepover with some friends in elementary school, one of the questions discussed that [...]

My Grandma Carter- or G-Ma as she is affectionately known to my college friends who have spent many hours traveling to her house, many a night sleeping in her home and many sunny afternoons sitting on her back porch eating fruit and fruit dip talking and laughing with her.  Today we held a family fast [...]

Hiking- Jeremy and I went out Saturday and took a hike around a nearby state park, St. Edwards, here in Kirkland.  The sun finally beat out the fog and haze of the inversion and we really enjoyed it.  I’ve been wanting to go hiking for over a year now.  We used to hike quite a [...]

Rotha Lou Miles- Yesterday I attended the memorial service for Rotha Miles, the wife of my graduate professor.  She passed away after a 4 year battle with breast cancer.  I always loved to see Rotha, she was so welcoming and easy to talk to.  We spent many hours at her house that first summer chatting [...]

A great trip to Utah- After a very long and tiring travel day we finally made it to Utah.  It was so great to see my family.  We had a battle of the bands which was totally fun.  Jeremy and I spent a day with Andy and Alina, Nina (Alina’s mom) and little Daniel.  We [...]
