A full update on life

Things have been coming along here in Washington. Waiting to hear back from Grad schools has been extremely nerve racking. We got our first response though. It was from Arizona State...and unfortunately it was a rejection letter. Nothing feels better than getting rejected!! ;) But we aren't losing hope yet.

We have been researching new cars for the last 3 months, seeing that our good old Betsy (the olds mobile) is about to croke. Long story short, we ran into a wonderful couple that was selling there 2008 Nissan Versa, because the husband lost his job and they couldn't afford two car payments.


This happened to be the luxury edition (includes blue tooth, keyless entry, security, cruise, power everything) with only 5,000 miles on it. So...basically new and in perfect condition. The best part is that it has a CVT transmitter, meaning that you cant feel the pull when the car shifts gears.

This was more than we ever expected. So...we are excited to say...WE HAVE A NEW CAR!!! HURRAY!!!


To add to our excitement, Crystal has learned a new hobby....climbing stairs!! She is hilarious because she knows every time she climbs up the stairs, someone will run over and pick her up. So she's turned it into a game, where she'll crall as fast as she can and see how many steps she can get up before you can get to her. It's super cute...but nerve racking, seeing that she doesnt understand the concept of gravity.




So, I dont think we ever posted this, but Brian also found a new toy a few months ago. There was a guy that wanted to get rid of his old 1979 Suzuki motorcycle....so Brian lucked out!!



We ran into Bobby Engram (the SeaHawks Wide Receiver) while attending a Home Show in Seattle. You would think Brian and Jeremiah had won a million dollars as they were both on cloud 9 the rest of the day.
