summer is going by so fast...

It sure has been a busy summer. I had two close
girl friends get married this summer so it has been really crazy and busy trying to balance all the events with work and building our house. With the two weddings also came two bridal showers and two bachelorette parties, so I had 6 saturdays busy busy with wedding events this summer. Yesterday was the last wedding, and it was absolutely beautiful. I have happy that they are now over though so that I can focus on work and building the house and not have to stress about events.







The house is coming along quickly! We have made so much progress in the last 2 1/2 months. It has been really exciting and I hope we can get alot more done in the next few months so that we can be indoors during the rainy seasons. I hope and wish we will be done by Christmas. But that is a huge huge goal!

1 year since marriage.. 2 months since breaking ground : )




Sunday, August 1st 2010 was our 1 year wedding anniversary : ) This picture was taken at the fort (where we got married). We had a wonderful anniversary. First we drove to Fort Worden, toured around the Fort. Walked the trails and walked around where we said "I DO". Behind us in this photo is where our reception was held. It was truely the most magical day of my life. After we were done wondering around the fort we went to check into our hotel, The Tides Inn. This is where we stayed on our wedding night. Then we went and walked around the town and went into shops. Port Townsend is such a beautiful town and has so many friendly people. We ate dinner at a very nice restaraunt, wish I could remember the name.. hmmm? We then made a list of 50 reasons why we loved each other, and then read them to each other. It was very romantic : ) All in all we had a wonderful anniversary.

It has been two months since we broke ground and our house is coming along beautifully!

The exterior walls are up and the interior framing (on the first floor) is complete : )
