My friend Megan, from work, hosted a tea party for a few of us girls! It made me feel like a little girl again. We had cucumber sandwiches, tea from all over the world, and watched "the man from snowy river". It was amazing girl time!

Danis, BethAnne, Jodi and I made t-shirts for Caleb's basketball games! So fun :D

Jordan and I went to check out the snow sculptures for Fur Rondy

One of my first days as a shift supervisor, I came out of the bathroom to find that a car had rammed into the glass window!! Supposedly he thought he was in neutral and leaned over to grabbed something while taking his foot of the clutch, well he was in drive, so the car lurched forward into the window!! Costly mistake if you ask me ;) I made a lot of phone calls and had a lot of help from a seasoned supervisor on the floor, but ,needless to say,it was a crazy day!!

I got to be with my sister at the "getting ready party" this year! It was so fun to be a part of it

January 2010

Well I got the promotion!! I start training on Thursday and got a $1.00 raise :D Thanks for all your prayers and support! I'm so excited yet very nervous!!!

We got a deadline slapped on us concerning the house...we needed to get all painting done by yesterday so our landlady could put the house on the market. Needless to say I've been painting my life away for a month and sadly its still not quite done. Just the touch-ups after mudding/texturing, so we're close!

Jordan's sticking with his job for now, but has his eyes peeled for something new.

My Aunt Jessica is in town for awhile and its been so fun to see her! She's been in Guam for the past year because her husband is stationed there. She came in this last weekend and its been wonderful hanging out with her again :D

2010's been filled with work, basketball, homecoming!, and friends! We're still enjoying all Alaska has to offer :) ps - I posted a couple pictures below

home for the holidays

A quick update from last post...our dog had a full recovery :D and Jordan's tooth is all better :D


This Christmas was wonderful! I just loved being with my family again :) We had our immediate family Christmas Tuesday night with a fabulous dinner and creme brulee for dessert! Wednesday afternoon we left for the Peninsula to join the extended families in their celebrations. We ate a LOT of food, had tons of parties, and opened gobs of presents. My Uncles Jason and Matt brought their newborn twins (Cate and Carter) to Alaska for a couple weeks and my Auntie Michelle and Uncle Jeremy just had their baby boy Warren, so we had 3 newborns under the same roof. so fun!

Jordan left me the day after Christmas to visit his folks for a week....i wish i could've gone! I miss them so much :( He had a blast coyote hunting, watching football with his dad, meeting his sister's boyfriend, and seein' old friends.

For New Years I headed down to the Peninsula again with my sisters, brother and his girlfriend. My parents joined us later, but they missed out on games and a delicious meal. We had fireworks and a live show from Recall (my brother and cousin Robbie's band). The girls and I then headed over to hot tub @ Grandad's so we didn't sleep til about 3:30! I haven't done that since college I think...so I'm still recovering :D




Now Jordan's home and we're back to work...so hard after such fun! I've been talking with my boss lately and have decided to take the promotion when/if they offer it. I should know more tomorrow. A promotion to start the new year? I like it :D Jordan's starting to feel ready for a new job, so be praying for him as he finds out what's next. Happy New Year Everyone!
