Go Dawgs

Huskie taligating - a Job Family affair. Above you see my brother Bill talking politics with Adam and posing in his typical "let me tell ya somethin' Adam" stance. My older brother, Pat, was also at the game. It is so nice to have the "old Pat" back. I am very proud of you big brother.

Joan's friend Jill and her boyfriend Garret set-up the whole tailgate party and coordinated a great "show".
Joan, Jill and I smile with our jello shots...I guess they smiled. I was under the impression it was going to be an action photo.
My nephew Jake decided to come spend some quality time with his aunties and talk some trash to the surrounding USC fans! Jake is a great kid and I love spending time with him. I am looking forward to going to some of his football games this fall.

I am so happy to be back in the Northwest, with my family, going to football games at my alma matter, and having Adam with me to share these special times!

Keep em' crossed

I need your thoughts and postive vibes as I try to get out of my current situation. I am feeling good about things.

Too busy to think

Is this week over yet?

I just can't seem to find a positive thought this week for work and it does not seem to be getting any better.

I start school next week and I wonder how I will be able to handle everything with what is on my plate already. I know it will be fine and that I like to get worked up about things, but I just feel a little overwhelmed.

Adios Suckers

Can you tell I am eager to get out of town (again) for a while?

Adam and I will be spending the next few days in blistering hot Phoenix, AZ! I can't wait. I can't believe it has almost been a year since we left. I have not been very good at keeping in touch with everyone, but they have still agreed to see me!

We are going to be spending time with many great friends, lounging by the pool, visiting our old haunts, and of course, enjoying some Sun Devil Football! We are staying at the Pointe South Mountain Resort. The resort is in a great location and very close to where Adam used to live.

I will be posting pictures from our adventure for sure. As Cadi says, "gotta document the day" and I plan on doing so.

Happy Birthday Heather

Thank you for your friendship. I hope you have a beautiful day.

Are you ready for some football?

I am!




I don't know what happened but I actually like football. I am keeping my fingers crossed for the Huskies today as they take on Boise State. Right now they are up and just sacked the quarter back! It would be a big boost for their confidence if they won today.




Today Adam and I started off with coffee and an omelet, then the gym and going our separate ways for a bit. I went shopping for some sunny gear for our upcoming trip and Adam went to REI (big surprise).


Now we are back at the house relaxing. I am just so happy to be home with Adam today watching football and enjoying each others company. This evening we will be cheering on Adam's Alma mater, Arizona State! Next week we will be there to cheer them on in person.

Sweet as a Georgia Peach!

Karin and Bill's wedding was the best. They thought of everything and everyone. I had the chance to meet a lot of people, both family and friends. I had the most wonderful time and really enjoyed spending time with Adam and his family. Here are a few pictures.
