Well there is a lot to say...
Okay the biggest news I have is that I just finished my first week of my internship last Friday.
It was great and very intimidating at the same time. The internship is at this great design firm called "design commission".
I have my own desk and have got to take on some really rad tasks. Jillian is loving it because I get up with her in the morning and drive with her to her work and take the bus into Seattle from there.Tomorrow is the start of my second week. I am looking forward to it very much.
Last weekend was Halloween and oh boy did we have some good costumes and some great times. Jillian and I went to a party at a friend of ours house Hilary's. This is also when they do their time change here and that gave us an extra hour of drinking, not that I needed it.
Jillian and I dressed up like an old couple. We mixed it up a little and swapped gender roles. Here is a pic of us...
Just before Halloween, we celebrated a couple of birthdays. It was both Mama Bill's and Kevin's birthdays only a few days apart. We had Sunday dinners in each of their honors with of course, presents and cake. Great family times.
On the Friday that just passed, Jillian had a congratulatory surprise dinner for me. Well I knew about the dinner, but the location was a surprise. Jillian surprised me by taking me out to a restaurant next to where we got engaged called the Salish Lodge. The weather was terrible and that made it even better as we sat eating dinner looking over the waterfall where we got engaged. It was a great night.
The next day was very fun as well. Our friend Tiegan is a great photographer and is looking to add to her portfolio. She had asked all the friends if they would pose for her. Jillian and I jumped at the opportunity to have someone with such fantastic skills take our shots. It was a very fun experience and I will post some pics when I get some in my hand. That night we went and had dinner with a few of our friends and a had an awesome night once again.
It is truly such a good feeling to be making such great friendships over here..
It has been raining here like no other, the true thought of Seattle weather. But, I have been trying to get in as many skates as possible. I enjoyed my first skate in a while today.
The last bit of exciting news, is that Jillian and I are now Monday to Friday people. With my new full-time internship, I was able to end my scheduled shifts at the movie theater and Jillian was able to quit the coffee shop. We have thoroughly enjoyed out last couple weekends of absolutely no work. I still have homework and projects,but at least I can do that on my own schedule.
Hope everyone is doing well. Jillian and I would always love to hear from you.
