Spring/Summer Update!

In March, Michael and I bought our first home! We are in Bonney Lake, WA.
It's hard to take pictures of the whole rooms. There is a video of the house in the previous blog.
The house is 2500sq ft. 4 Bedrooms/2 1/2 Bath.
We love it!

Michael and I have also begun lots of yard work.






In April, Michael and I switched to 4th shift at work. Which is working 4, 10 hour shifts, Monday-Thursday. And Friday is our overtime day. We really like working this shift. We are less tired at work!
Moving to 4th shift meant that I not longer could be with my LifeGroup at church, I really miss that. The one thing I wish I didn't have to give up.


In May, we decided to take a spur of the moment road trip to Southern California! Working 4th shift allowed us to leave right after work on a Thursday night. We decided to do this on our lunch break, 6 hours before we would be leaving. The trip was alot of fun. Michael, Dan, Jon Wayne, and I drove down to Santa Clarita/Newhall area and stayed at my Aunt's house. We went to Six Flags Hurricane Harbor 1 day, and then Six Flags Magic Mountain 1 day. We got family,sun, roller coasters and of course we had In N Out Burger 4 times!





















In June/July, we were able to spend time spend time with some awesome friends!
I spent a day with Crystal and we went Red Robbin.
Then the week after were able to see Seth and Angel McDowell, plus the cutest kiddos! Levi and Rebecca.  And got to see Crystal again before she left! Wish we could all see each other more often. It'd be fun to take a trip out to visit them both! 





Levi is saying "cheese". So cute!

What a sweetheart! She is just too cute!

We also spend Saturday with Michael's Grandparents and part of the family. We went to Olive Garden! Very good food! Also Matt, Michael's brother was over for the 4th of July weekend. We blew up lots of fireworks! Lots of fun!  




Our firework finale! Thanks to Louis and his friend!




Super recently, I have been working out. I'm doing Jillian Michael's Six Week 6 Pack. Trying to get fit for the summer and would like to start running too. I would also like to try extreme couponing. I've started collecting.
Michael has been working hard a work to get certified for X-Ray. Last week he took his X-Ray tests and he passed! He took 4 tests and he had to get 100% on the practical. I am so proud of him! He is now Level 2 NDT (Non Destructive Testing) certified! He checks welds for airplane parts, so lot's of responsibly!

This past Tuesday I went to the Point Defiance Zoo with my co-worker, Kimberly. We had a blast and enjoyed the sunshine as well!








Next trip is Lake Powell in August. I will try to post between now and then!
