There have been a few things going on in my life this week...things that i never thought i would have to worry about or at least not for a long time. Its so cliche but you never know when life will be taken from you and it shouldnt take a scare or something even more tragic to remind you to tell the ones you love how you feel about them. You should tell them every day through words or through your actions. Thankfully my reminder did not cost anyone I love thier life but it was a good wake up call. So to all my friends and my family, please know that I love you and depend on you and dont know what i would do without you.

So much for planning...

I had some of my favorite people in town this weekend and my plan was to hang out with them most of the days. Friday night was spent at the Snyder house. We had planned on taking our dog, Beasley, over to play with their puppy, Charlie. Right as we were getting ready to go we threw the tennis ball for her one last time and she sprained her leg (again) and started limping. We figured bringing her along would not be the best idea so the poor thing had to spend the rest of the evening in her Kennel, instead of playing with her friend :(

The next day My mom came over to help me hang curtains in our living room, while Jim was out golfing with all of our friends at the "doolittle scramble." I had hoped to join up with them around the 9th hole and hang out once i was done, however things with the curtains did not go as smoothly or quickly as i had planned on and i missed out on the golf. When we finally finished the curtains 4 hours and two interruptions later Jim was already done with golf...needless to say i was a bit frustrated with the project but we were able to go up to the LaBelle's that evening and have a fire and hang out. so that helped calm my aggravation.

Finally on sunday Megan, Diane and I had planned on floating the little spokane river for a lazy day. We were all excited and ready to go, with just one problem. None of us had flotation devices. We called around to all the tire stores in spokane and found out every single one was closed. I think this is honestly the only business that is closed all day on Sundays. So there went that plan... The good news about not going to the river was that i got to go to lunch at the Elk with Dawn, and Fuller before the two of them headed back to Seattle. What have i learned from this? Less plans, more just going with the flow.

giving it a go...

OK So here goes...our attempt at a blog. I have recently gotten hooked on blogs (thanks megan), and have probably creeped around on anyone's who is reading this, so i decided to give it a try myself. I must warn anyone who reads this that our life is not all that exciting so i am not promising a lot of updates or it being entertaining in any way. I really dont even know what to say to start this off or describe what this will even be about. I guess this will just be a glimpse of what life is like for us as we try to figure out this whole being an adult thing :)
