Beach Trip

Joel and his Papa.






















We rode our motorcycle to the beach last weekend and it took us FOUR HOURS to get home because of bad traffic. Talk about some sore bottoms. hahaha =)

NEW JOB!!!

So I am excited to say I will no longer be working at Umpqua Bank. I am the newest secretary for West Linn High School. YEAH!!!!! I am not going to miss dealing with rich cranky people wanting a better interest rate on their CD. Yet, I will miss my co-workers. I love the team at Umpqua but I have decided that I was not meant to be a banker, I am on this earth to be an educator! So anyway, God is good and I know that he is going to use me in great ways with these high school students! My first day of school is Tuesday! =)

7-7-08 ONE YEAR!

We spent out first anniversary at The Craftsman Bed & Breakfast in Pacific City. It was a beautiful room and the weather was awesome!













Joel and his anniversary present... a new surfboard!!!














People told us that the first year is the hardest and man were they telling the truth! It has been a challenge getting to know each other on such a different level and getting used to being around each other all the time, but it has been a great year. I may want to kick him sometimes but in the end, I know that we will grow old and gray together because what we have is real. Happy one year babe, I love you!

So, it took me a month to get pictures posted of our new house but believe it or not it still isn't fully put together yet. Our spare room looks like we just moved in last week. Slowly but surely it is coming together!
