This is a big one!!!!

So this weekend we had our first visitors!!! Tj's parents came to visit us and we had a lot of fun with them. We ate a lot of clam chowder and saw some AMAZING sites on the coast and in the Columbia gorge. So I'm pretty sure there are enough pics to tell our story of this weekend.

THis is called the octupus tree. Yes, it is just one tree.

this is my one and only halloween picture this year. I worked at crapplebees so I dressed up. And T just studied while i worked all day.

RASCAL FLATTS!

We actually weren't planning on going to this concert. We heard on the radio it was starting in a couple of hours so we hopped on the MAX and scalped some cheap tickets. The joys of living in a City:)

Just in case you forgot what i looked like. Here is one of me!

Things I miss.

I am missing a lot of things from cedar and I am missing a lot of clost friends and family. I know I don't see some of you a lot, but the fact that I may not see you for a long time makes me miss you. These are the things I have been missing.

Things I love about Oregon so far.....

I love that I have the next three years to go thru this adventure with T

I love my new purple and black zebra umbrella. I have actually used it.

I love Bally's. Screw golds gym. Bally's is the best.

The coast is BEAUTIFUL!!! It's a hidden gem. If you haven't been, GO!

I love how it looks just like how I pictured Twilight.

I love that there are a lot of opportunities here

Winco foods. THey have all of these bins full of goodies and spices and whatever you can think of. Plus their groceries are soo cheap.

I love the little place me and T found on the coast that makes THE BEST clam chowder.

I love that it hasn't snowed yet! yahoo.

I actually do love the rain. Even though I hate that there is not an ounce of sun, I love the rain.I'm not sick of it yet.

I love that everybody isn't lds. Hopefully I can grow from this.

I do love that I live so close to every store ever. (besides walmart)

I love that TJ will be a pharmacist. Can't wait til he is!

I love that we can decide to go to a rascal flatts concert the day of and not have to travel 3 hours there and back.

Falling asleep to the sound of rain
