Father's Day Weekend

My sister and I took our hubbies to Traxx Racing in Mukilteo. The cars go pretty fast and it gets a little crazy during the race (including some mild road rage)! It was a little spendy for the few minutes it lasted, but something you gotta at least try. We then went to see Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull. It was entertaining (as to be expected) but the ending did not live up to our expectations.

We had a lot of fun with the Fergs! It will be hard to move away from them :(



The next day I made "Pancake Puffs" for breakfast (from the info-mercials)! It is a pretty fun finger food and we made the different versions throughout the week.


After church we went to a great park in Everett that overlooks The Sound. The weather was awesome and Mia loved swinging on the swings and then walking through the little arboretum next door.

She is a sweet little Daddy's Girl!

When we visited San Diego I went into my old work, San Diego Commercial Finance. Mia was very shy, but had a great time with the phone in the breakroom. My friend, Ninette, sent me these pictures and I thought they were cute!

In A Strange Turn of Events...

Everyone knows how difficult it is to move to a new place and start from scratch. When we moved from San Diego it was just starting to feel like home (that only took about 5 years). Well, here we go again...

We were very excited to move to Seattle and I have always wanted to make it back to the Northwest. The rain/gloom was tough on us, but the beautiful summers along the Sound are very rewarding. We've loved living near my sister, her husband and all of her kids. We also enjoy seeing my family in Spokane quite frequently.

Jeff has been working for Big D Construction (based out of SLC, UT) and his project Washington Square -in Bellevue- is wrapping up. We will be moving to the Salt Lake area this fall! It was hard for me to accept, and I lived in denial for as long as possible. We know this is where we are supposed to go and are looking forward to living near Jeff's family again. I can't say I thought I'd end up back in Utah (no offense to anyone who lives in or is from Utah) but I thought we'd be here for good. I am glad that many of our friends and family live in the area and know that will help us transition smoothly.

We are extremely excited for affordable living, too!! FINALLY!

We will be moving a couple of months before baby #2 is due- which means I will be useless to Jeff as a moving partner (yay- for me).

I guess we'll have to take up snowboarding and start hiking!
