We're Moving!!!

Yes....in 6 days we are moving!! We have finally found a fabulous townhouse to rent that is in a great location. The townhomes are located right on Lake Washington, close to the Landing shopping center, movie theater, Seahawks training facility and Boeing. We even get a view of the lake right from our bedroom!! We have definitely felt very blessed these last few months staying with Steve's dad and family, finding amazing jobs and now finding a home of our own. Today we were able to go look at our new place and have started planning our furniture and the arrangement of it. On Friday night Steve and his dad will be painting the bedrooms, Saturday we will be going to Ikea :) to get our furniture, and Sunday we will move everything out of storage. We are very excited and ready to begin life on our own!!

I will leave you with some of Steve's latest photography projects...the Brousseau's backyard...downtown Seattle...and Mount Rainier! Enjoy and pray we have little stress from the move!

Labor Day Weekend and School has Started!!

Hello All!
Since I have taken the time to relax from work this weekend, I am blogging! From the last time I blogged, Steve and I went to the John Mayer/Keith Urban concert that was absolutely amazing! We had seen John Mayer two years ago and Steve and I have since really loved his music. Seeing him with Keith Urban was the icing on the cake! They did several songs together and it was great to have finally seen a country concert...I haven't seen one since Kenny Chesney back in 2004. It was very strange to be wearing a jacket at a summer concert (we saw the concert at the Gorge which was so pretty, yet got very chilly at night). I'm used to the sweltering hot Texas/Arizona concerts! It was a nice change!

I have also started the school year at my new school! I'm still teaching 3rd grade and absolutely love my students. They are all so kind and caring for one another...and I have several students who love to read! This year is going to be amazing....lots of hard work but I feel I will have great success!

Yesterday Steve and I went to visit his mother, brother, sister-in-law and his nephew in Lynnwood. Every time we go to Lynnwood we always have to go to the Edmonds Beach dog park because the dogs love it! I've posted pictures of the dog park before, it is so beautiful and lots of fun-loving dogs are always there. Today Steve has to work :(....so the rest of the family and I are going to the zoo! (yes in the rain but it will definitely be fun)....

Here are some pictures of my new classroom, one last Rainier picture, and the family at the dog park. (Steve is really loving our new camera and is starting to become a true photographer!) :)

Hope you have a great rest of your Labor Day holiday!
