More news on our house!


Scott went along for the home inspection last Wednesday. After about 4 hours of inspecting, we got a good report about the house. Everything is in really good shape, just a few minor things to fix or replace. The inspector said it was one of the best houses he had seen in awhile...so that's good considering the house is 45 years old! We asked the sellers to take care of a couple of the larger repairs, and we found out today that they'll take care of 2 of our 3 wishes and give us some money toward the third, since that one is just normal wear and tear on the fireplace. So we'll get that all taken care of and then hopefully we'll be good to close! :)

End of Summer...

Since summer is coming to an end, Scott and I decided to take a last minute weekday trip to the beach! We settled on Westport since Scott had never been there, and it had been a long time since I had last been there. We wandered the town a bit, ate a yummy seafood lunch, and climbed to the top of the lighthouse!

After the lighthouse, we made our way to the beach. Even though it was misting heavily, we still enjoyed relaxing on a log and walking along the beach collecting cool rocks and shells!
Even though it was a bit of a cold, dreary day, we still had a blast enjoying our last days of summer!

My Bridesmaids!

After all the busy-ness of wedding season, I finally sat down and thought about who I would like to be by my side as I plan my wedding and start my new life with Scott. I made my decision and searched around for some cute ways to ask. After going through a few different ideas, I settled on this cute little card:
I typed each girl's name on the front and stamped this cute dress stamp from Michaels.

On the inside, I found a cute poem for each girl that fit our relationship and included a picture of us! All the girls were excited to be part of my wedding and I'm so excited to have them by my side! :)

Wedding Season!

This year I was honored to be a part of two weddings - my best friends Megan and Sarah! It was so much fun helping them plan, run last minute errands, etc. Here are some pictures of the celebrations!

Sarah and Nick's wedding took place on the beautiful Bellingham Bay at Hotel Belweather.
An amazing group of elementary education friends!

Scott and I in our matching blues...it wasn't purposely planned! :)



Megan and Josh's wedding was on the Olympic Peninsula at the amazing Port Hadlock Inn in Port Hadlock!

Us girls getting our dance on! :)
After the rehearsal dinner, Scott and I took a little stroll though Port Townsend!

We had an amazing time at both weddings! We wish you the best of luck as you start your new lifes together Sarah and Nick and Megan and Josh! :)
