Shortly after my last blog post I got a new job. After bittersweet goodbyes to the girls of Dragonfly Greetings, I left my delightful workplace of nearly five years and entered the financial world of Crooks & Co. in Oregon City. I could not ask for more wonderful people to work for and with. Alex and Amy are fabulous.
We celebrated one year of being married in Disney World. There was a terrific thunderstorm the night of our anniversary. The streets of Frontierland were flooded.
We took a trip to Astoria for Mark’s birthday in January. We stayed at the Benjamin Young Inn – a charming Victorian home built in 1888 made into a bed and breakfast. Carolyn Hammer, your baked pears and your hospitality cannot be matched.
We spent spring break with my grandparents in Boise, Idaho. Mark shot and killed rabbits. It was heartwarming.
The ceiling over our kitchen table gave way after several weeks of rain. Our landlord goes into the attic frequently to patch holes … we don’t feel encouraged.
However! We have been pre-approved for a home loan! This week marks the beginning of our search for our first house together.
