Looking Forward to........


Last night Eric decided we should all draw 3 things we are looking forward to in our new adventure in Southern Cali. Here's what we came up with....

Eric
Surfing
Palm Trees
New Friends

Brandi
Sunshine
Warmth (which means flip flops everyday)
Disneyland, Legoland, Seaworld

Amara
Beach
that's all for now, she's struggling

Sully
Seagulls
Ocean
Boats 

Finn
He just had fun stabbing holes in paper with a pen but I know he's looking forward to:
Being outside more
Sand
Ocean

We are all struggling making this change but we appreciate all the love and support you are all giving us. Please know that just because we look forward to these things doesn't mean we won't miss all the fun things here we've done with all of you. We look forward to lots of visitors in our new home.

Times are a Changin'

After working at the Seattle Times for 6 years it has come to an end. Eric was given the official word last Friday that his last day will be December 12th. We are sad and terrified but excited at the same time. Eric has more talent and charisma in his little finger than most people posses. I KNOW that he can do anything he puts his mind and passion into. It has been a joy to watch him grow as a cartoonist and person the last 6 years. We will never regret making the choice to have Eric follow his dream. This place and these people have become our family, but times are a changin' and we feel a pull to move on. It won't be easy but this is our time to make our dreams come true! We love you all and will let you know where this adventure takes us.

2 Ninjas and a Softball Player




Ok- So better late then never. We had a fun Halloween. We did the annual tricker treating with our friends around their neighborhood. Then we went to the ward Trunk-r-Treat cause I got to be in charge this year, then back to our friends for candy eating, dancing and post Halloween pizza feasting. It didn't rain and it wasn't freezing butt cold. All in all it was a fun evening!
