Ok, the downlow....

The last month (yes, it has literally been a month since we moved.) has flown by. I got a position at an office/warehouse for a small craft supply company called Ellen Hutson, LLC. I know everyone says the people at their work are the greatest, but no for reals, mine are. Everyone is so nice and helpful. While we fill orders ,we talk and listen to stories. If you get a sec, you should check out her site, Ellen has an AMAZING creative eye. Her cards she creates are crazy-cute.
Travis just barely got a job at Fred Meyer's stocking shelves at night. He will be working from 12 midnight to nine in the morning. Talk about a change for him. I think there will be a little adjusting but he will rock it! The job is both good and bad, he will be on an opposite schedule as I will but will be able to let the dogs out during the day. We will at least get one meal together which will be his breakfast and my dinner.
We also got an apartment in a smaller town on the outskirts of Seattle called Issaquah. It is such a cute little town. It is what Ogden should be. There are always tons of people walking around, going to restaurants or running errands. You definitely feel a sense of community. I can't wait to take a stroll down front street to get a closer look.
So there is the bigger update. I am rested and relaxed, although my house still consists of a boxes. My parents, who brought up my stuff from Utah are here for one more day, so unpacking will have to wait for one more day.

I am so glad things are working out and you are getting settled in. What a trip it has already been a month! That town looks adorable! I would love to live in a town like that! What happened to the cupcake place?

I cannot believe that it's already been a month!! And, I've only seen you twice...that's terrible! I love that the leaves are starting to change a bit up by us. It's weird that Us isn't just Rob and I...it's you guys too, neighbors. Super glad you're up here!

What a wonderful update! You both got jobs and live in a quaint little town. Congrats times three. Hopefully the shifts will reconfigure so you're both home at the same time. Still, congrats, congrats. These are tough times and you two have done well.
