Update Finally!

We haven't updated our blog because we're fairly boring people and haven't had a ton to post. But I finally thought of some things to put on here. We had a fun Memorial Day weekend. We went to Newport on Saturday and met up with some friends and hung out at a house they rented for the weekend. They were right by the beach, so we were able to walk down and play in the sand for a little bit while the sun was out. We also drove down the coast for a little bit and stopped to see some tide pools that had actually been covered up by the time we got there. It was still beautiful though. We've been so spoiled living so close to the coast, it'll be hard if we move away.


Yesterday was mine and Dan's 4th anniversary! I can't believe it's been 4 years already, it's gone by so fast and has been so much fun! We didn't do a whole lot for it - Dan's been working a ton of extra hours and he even had to work all day Sunday so he's been exhausted. We went to dinner (a little late) at Ambrosia, which we've been wanting to try for awhile, and it was pretty good. Then we just came home and hung out and went to bed early. We're party animals! Dan brought me home 2 dozen roses, which are so beautiful! I was so excited! For our presents to each other, we preordered Rock Band for the Wii. It comes out later this month, and we're so excited! I just have to take a second and mention how much I appreciate Dan. He works so hard so that we can live a nice life and I'm so grateful for that! He's so much fun and we've had a great 4 years! Thanks, Dan! I love you!

Vacations and trips (follow-up posting)


(Dan speaking)


If you plan on coming out to Oregon and visiting the coast, beware of dinosaurs! Jurassic Park is alive and well in these parts.

That is all.

Vacations and trips






One thing Angie and I enjoy most in life is going on vacation (trips are mini-vacations and count in this category as well. Anyone who says otherwise is a fool!). It keeps us refreshed and reminds us of what makes life enjoyable in the first place. We recently went to the Oregon coast and were very fortunate to have some nice weather, especially during this time of year. As you hopefully noticed, we took some pictures. I wish they did the coast justice. It's so beautiful out there. It's amazing and is something that everyone should experience. The sound of the crashing waves, feeling the slight breeze, looking into endless blue water, I could go on. I just hope the family I have left in St. Louis gets to come out here and experience this (they have never been this far west before).
