Blerg?

Blerg.

I recently traveled down to Portland with my two best buddies, and purchased one of those five year diary things (you write one sentence a day). I thought that I would like it once I was older to look back and see all the cool things that I did. Unfortunately after a week of writing in it I have quickly realized that I am not that exciting. So here is to forcing more exciting things to happen in my life. Cheers.

Since I haven't blogged in FOREVER a few exciting things have happened in my life.

Nelson and I have fallen deeper in love. (look up we are recreating one daniel and i took years ago)

I went to Hawaii with my groovy family. Can I move there?

Beautiful.

I got to know my brothers cat Manny a little better than I did before. Even though he can catch treats in the air does not mean he is better than Nelson. Nelson is perfect.

Seriously though a big thanks to Liz Lemon for the word blerg. I feel like I have been saying it constantly lately.

Honey Bunny.

I think that it is safe to say that I have mastered the sock bun.

Hooray!

Toilets.

So a few months ago I got a new job. Yay!

I am working for a wonderful company in the plumbing supply industry. 

I am a trainee. Part of the trainee position involves a few months in the warehouse. Last week was my last week in the warehouse. Here are a few things that I learned:

1. Always wear a sports bra on a forklift.

2. Sometimes you need more than one sports bra.

3. I look awful in a bright orange dirty vest.

4. You can manage to still look damn fine in a bright orange dirty vest.

5. There is no such thing as a cute steel toed boot.

6. If you ask about cute steel toed boots you will be presented with a not so cute steel toed boot.

7. It is hard to have a social life while doing physical work 50 hours a week.

8. Working hard makes a paycheck feel amazing.

9. My father is similar to a King.

10. I love my job.

Summer.

I have been off all summer too busy to post! I guess that is a good indicator that it was a good summer. Hopefully we still have a few more weeks.

I have been busy slaughtering fish.

I have been busy going on many summertime dates!

I have been busy celebrate this boy's birthday.

I have been busy looking awesome at the Evergreen State Fair.

I have been busy learning how to golf.

I have been enjoying the sun with friends!

I have been busy going to 5 million summer concerts.

I have been busy snuggling at Bocce.

Hope you had a good summer too!

Hello?

Yeah I know, I've been lazy.

It has been beautiful out and I have been crazy busy so can you really blame me?

Let's catch up.

We celebrated this handsome boy's 4th birthday,

and obviously spoiled him with tons of presents and love!

Went to the cabin. Saw the grandparents.

Daniel met Sarah Palin.

Daniel became obsessed with golf, and Nelson claimed a pillow as his.

We found out that our apartment gets very hot during the summer, and makes us all sleepy.

We finally decorated.

Last but not least. I became an artist, as you can obviously tell this is Daniel and I.

Theno's

This is my photo of the week...for last week. I am behind. Oops!

This photo is of Theno's Dairy. My first job, my second family, and my home away from home.

Anyways, Theno's had closed an my heart has shattered. I love this photo because it really captures how the employees who have poured their hearts felt about the closing. We sat there for quite a long time just remembering the great times.

Cat Grass.

Been growing some plants lately.

Or at least trying to. One in particular is not growing very well.

My cat grass....I wonder why.

...Nelson!
