Portland palooza
A couple weeks ago we got a chance to go to Portland for our very first time. We went there to attend a wedding, but decided to go a little early to check out the sights. Portland wasn’t exactly our scene, but we still had a good time. We decided to be real tourists and […]

Seein’ San Fran’
We took a trip down to the bay area in April. One of the places we went to was Sushirrito. It’s sushi, but burrito-sized. And burrito-ish flavors. It sounds weird, but it was pretty good. Who can turn down gigantic rolls of sushi you can eat with your hands? We rode on some really old […]
We’re still alive!
Jon and I were writing our family history for a family reunion and noticed that our blog is extremely out of date. Sorry for the lack of updates once again! We’ve been busy busy busy working away, but do have some updates for what’s been happening in the past few months. Church After our move […]
Black Friday 2011
Another Black Friday has come and gone, and we have some stories to tell. The in-person Black Friday shopping was disappointing, but we got some sweet deals online (I’ll talk about those at the end of this post). We wanted to buy some things from Wal*Mart, but apparently so did everybody else. The freeway was […]
Summer 2011
It was raining dogs and cats today so I guess that means one thing: Summer is officially over and our Northwest Autumn weather has returned :(. We had a pretty eventful summer this year! Main highlights: 1) We took a big Chau family vacation to Florida 2) Jon got his hands on a $99 HP […]
If shopping were a sport…
It’s that time of the year again–deal time!! We decided to do a warm-up run before Black Friday just to brush up on our skills. Then we did our infamous Black Friday series; and we even added some more deals that we don’t normally do: food! We actually didn’t have anything we really wanted to […]
Vegas!
We took a trip to Las Vegas for my cousin’s wedding. It was a really fun trip, but the heat and dust was ridiculous. We found ourselves planning out where we were going based on where there would be air conditioning and how hot it would be. We decided to try some fancy hotels out […]
Angela’s birthday down under~
Well, I’m officially old. I turned 24 yesterday and as usual Jon planned a great birthday surprise for me. I was totally in the dark this time and my closest guess for what he planned wasn’t even remotely close. We drove up North about an hour where Jon had found a KANGAROO FARM!!!! It was the strangest […]
Adventure of olympic proportions!
Last week our friend Susan came up to see the Olympics with us! We woke up early, drove up to Vancouver, perused the scene, saw the women’s curling event, and drove home so we could go to work the next day. Here are the pictures. We waited in a HUGE line for about an hour […]
A series of unfortunate events
I’ve had three embarrassing and very painful experiences this past week. So I figured I’d share it in this blog so at least somebody will be entertained at my expense. While we were in Idaho for the holidays, we went to a Thai restaurant with family. One of the things we ordered was a soup […]
