Long time, no blogging!






We haven’t updated our blog for WAY to long… so, let get down to business.

President’s Day weekend, Miss Snipes came to visit us! She needed to hang out with people in-no-way affiliated with Gonzaga Law & we definitely needed some Kaydee lovin’. So, we wondered our way around our little town of Port Orchard & ended up taking the dogs for a walk in the park . Then, mysteriously, we ended up at Kels Irish Pub in Seattle... WEIRD! We had a great time and maybe a few too many drinks but it was an amazing time! Thanks K-Dizzle for your love and friendship!





This is a beautiful picture of our “commute” to work everyday—terrible view isn’t it!

During the end of February and beginning of March, I started talking a class for another qualification at work. It was an intense 3 week class in a windowless room… Needless to say, it was sooo much fun . BUT, while I was in class, Zach started working at the Shipyard! He is now in training to become a Radiological Control Technician, RadCon Tech. for short. So, far he has taken 3-4 tests and a couple weeks of classes and really seems to enjoy being back at work. He is starting to make friends at work and is really coming to under his job, to ensure that I nor anyone else has irradiated babies, among other responsibilities! We have both been busy & learning to balance our responsibilities; it has definitely been a lot of work but it is always an adventure.

This last week, our good friend Paul Purdom spent his spring break out here touring Seattle <& a “few” breweries.> While he was visiting, he and Zach let me tag along on their “man-date.” <-- Just kidding guys! We spend the Sunday before St. Patrick’s Day in Seattle at Pike’s Market, Kels Irish Pub (there seems to be a reoccurring theme here...) and ended the day at The Crab Pot. This restaurant is famous for dumping a giant bucket of crab, shrimp, muscles, clams, oysters, salmon, halibut, corn, potatoes & andouille sausage.


This is the “cute” couple before dinner. And here is the table when we are finished w
ith dinner; it was delicious! The last great adventure before Paul left was the go to Fort Warden and wonder around the armories. There was a gorgeous, sandy beach that we got to dig our toes into.



Last, but certainly not least, the little girl…Jersey is over 30 lbs!! She has quite the personality & gives the big man a run for his $ whenever she can.
