Out on the town~
A few weeks ago Jon’s cousin was in town visiting us. We had a lot of fun seeing the sites of Seattle with her! Friday morning, we had a big homemade breakfast then, headed to Seattle to RIDE THE DUCKS! It was a lot more fun than we thought it’d be and was a great […]
Birthday madness
It was my birthday last week. I’m 26 and I’m really feeling the effects. Despite my quickly aging body, we were able to go out and do some fun stuff. REI had a “garage sale” with tons of heavily discounted items. We got there half an hour early and there was already a huge line. […]
Bikes~
Well, a couple of weeks ago Jon and I thought we’d step up our exercise game and get bikes so that we could save on gas $ and get a little bit of a work out at the same time. I know from the pictures they look pretty cool, by my bike was only $60 […]
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 […]
California Pizza Kitchen
A couple of weeks ago, Jon and I went to try out the California Pizza Kitchen down in Bellevue. We had a giftcard from our credit card rewards and we’re not known to say no to a free meal 😀 It turned out to be really good. Our waitress was super helpful and we were […]
Cheese coming out of our ears
When I was in college, there was a sweet deal on cheese so I got four pounds of it. While I was in the store, I ran into some friends and they said, “WOW! Look at all that cheese!” Here’s a picture: So we were grocery shopping yesterday and we saw a SWEET unadvertised deal […]
An eventful trip to Vancouver
This Saturday we took another quick trip up to Vancouver. We met up with a family I knew from my mission that had moved to Canada. It was fun to catch up on how they’ve been and find out all the news from the people I knew in the Philippines. It turns out there’s a […]
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 […]
Sweeeep!!! Sweep! Swwwweeeeep!
Last weekend Jon and I went to check out the Granite Curling Club in Seattle due to interest sparked during our olympic adventure. After watching the curling event we figured we could probably make it on the US team without too much trouble, but after trying it we realize that curling is a bit harder than it […]
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 […]
