Skippin down Memory Lane

It's been almost 2 years ago this week that my family was out visiting for our wedding. I get a little sentimental around anniversaries and wanted to post a few pictures I happened upon when they were here. They make me smile.

Here's Troy trying to tell me to be quiet because the ducks were sleeping on the dock, I just love how cute Erica looks in this picture with her little camo capri's and her hair all dolled up still from the wedding.

Here's Tony and I in the Ferry terminal waiting to go for a ferry ride. I thought it would be hard to "impress" my big brother in the big city, but I think the Ferry ride was even fun for him.

Here's Four of my most favorite girls in the world! All we need to add is Erica, Mom & Julie and we've got it! We were busy picking out my flowers at the market for the wedding.

This was taken after the wedding, we went touring together in Seattle as a family. We went and took a Safe Co Field tour and this picture melts my heart in so many places. Two little boys enjoying their hotdogs, right outside the stadium.

and a big cheese for the ending! Aren't my nephews adoreable?

So, There's my trip down memory lane... Love doing that :)

The Wreath

It all started with Pinterest - yes, that rant about Pinterest still stands, but this was inspired from there. I wanted to recreate a wreath of bulbs, I hate buying wreaths since they expire year after year, this one will hang in my home for a LONG time, possibly till I die... that is how much I love how it turned out! So, being my crafty (and somewhat frugal) self, I set off to find the materials to make it. Finding that bulbs are not quite as cheap as you'd expect, I found them for 80% off. This wreath, at cost would have run me about $125. ACK! I made it for under 35%! So pretty! So pleased! Many have asked me to make one for them - my answer - you buy the bulbs and materials and I'll glue it together!

My Happy Place

I have a lot of happy space in my world - but the happiest of all is Marvista Park in Normandy Park, just a few short miles from my house. It's the one place where I can go, be a kid, and then feel completely refreshed afterwards. Vacation is coming... T minus a few weeks now, and I feel like I've earned the crap out of it this year! But until then, a weekly trip to my happy place with the furry one should do it! I love his little feet trying to take on the leaves! So cute.

8 Years Ago Today...

8 Years ago today... I was in the Kent/Des Moines Park and Ride puking in the bushes because I was SO Nervous about my first day at KMS. I didn't know If I could hack it in the big city. I didn't know a thing about being a Receptionist, and I didn't even know what a Broker/Dealer was, but I swallowed the lump in my throat and decided to take it head on. I've learned SO MUCH - an Immeasurable amount of life and work lessons from my 8 years at KMS, and I could muse all day long about the Farm Fresh 22 year old you see to the left and how naive she was. KMS has given me a gift of balancing a work life and a home life and still being able to give my 110% when I'm at work without losing my balance. When I walked in the door this morning, my co-workers had created this celebration from me, and after they arrived, it got bigger with gifts, and notes, and cards, and decorations. They wanted to celebrate me, and my achievements here, though If they would have kn...
