Wow...

Hey everyone, I am so sorry its been so long.
I am sure no one follows me anymore because I have been so absent. Almost a full year!
But for those of you that do, thank you.

I will try to be a better blogger! Hopefully we will get internet on the boat here soon. Cross your fingers.

Yes, we are still living on the boat.

We are still afloat, and well. We are hoping to sell it though this summer. We are burnt out living on it. We want room, a house, a family.

A lot has happend over the year, we took the boat out of the water last July and painted the bottom.

This is before:

And this is after:



Travis took me to the Seattle Aquarium for my birthday in November!


For Christmas Travis got me my first pair of Designer shoes!
Coach baby!!!



For New Year's we went to Seattle Center again!




Oh and last year I became a CAKE DECORATOR!!! I am so so so happy!




So for the most part, we've gotten caught up!



And little did you know, I've stalked you all on my hiatus!

Some Thursday Musing

Howdy everyone, its been awhile!

Work has been crazy, and so has boat life!

We are getting ready to pull the boat out of the water to paint the bottom and the hull. The weather around here has not been nice! I think Washington is beautiful but this weather! Oh my! One minute its sunny, the next its pouring down rain! We can't get any of our prep work done! Cross your fingers that we can get this hunk painted and this monkey off our back!

So i switched jobs for a couple months, instead of the food court, I was doing the morning stocking. I had to be at work at 5:15! It was hard getting up at 4:00 am! But I got accustomed to it pretty fast, so I got home around 2:00 or so.

Let me tell you what I got some pretty good pictures of the happenings in the Harbor!

I love this old man and his dog, who row around the harbor all day!


I just thought this was the neatest boat!

My mother-in-law made my husband and I the most gorgeous quilt as a "boat warming" present. She spent a few weeks working on it and surprised me with it in March. I love it! 





This is the back, she always names and signs them.

I know easter was a while ago, but i had to put some pictures of my wonderful nephews on here!
We went to my sister-in-laws church, then went over for brunch!



I was trying to get a picture with Joseph but he was too busy playing video games with my brother-in-law Steve.

I hope everyone is having a good start to their summer!!

Going Bye Bye...

Not me!  no worries I am not going anywhere


But my doggie Charlie loves to go Bye Bye in the Corvette...




I've been wanting to drive the Vette to work, but we haven't been able to because of Charlie, but we have a solution!

A Quilt! I don't know why I didn't think of that before!

So now he is loving it!


He does get a little bored waiting for school buses though...

Just a note to say

That I love my husband. I really truly do. I know I am young, we both are young. But I have never ever felt this strongly about someone.
He is my best friend. I tell him everything, he tells me everything. I am so grateful for him, he puts through a lot of my stuff.



I know I still have a lot of growing up to but he is so patient with me. I never knew this kind of loved exsisted. Travis is most definetly not one of those blundering husbands you see on TV, in fact he is the one that keeps me in check! Not that I am putting myself down, I just know he is the more organzied one!











He took such good care of me while I was healing from my ovarian cyst burst. He held my hand when I got my very first IV. I couldn't have down it without him. He even bought me heat packs, and got me a biscuts and gravy breakfast from the best diner in town, even held me hair back when I threw it all up.









 

















Why do you love your husband or signifcant other?

Dancing the Night Away!

So Valentine's Day was so amazing! We celebrated it a day early though, since we both worked on Sunday.

Ever since we got married we wanted to try dancing together, but our schedules wouldn't allow it. Needless to say when we got the chance we jumped on it.

We looked everywhere for places to go here in the Sound, and we found one! It was called the Red and White Ball. It was a combination of everything! Swing, Rumba, Cha-Cha, Salsa, thank goodness there was a lesson before the dancing! I have two left feet, so I was grateful that Travis has lots of patients.

We had a blast! We will most definitely be doing that again!

There was a man there that saw us struggle a little bit so he told about this place in Olympia the would teach a beginner's swing class then 3 hours of dancing. We decided to give it a try. I picked it up a lot better than the rumba we learned at the red and white ball.




Sorry if this post is a little jumpy, I am on pain pills because yesterday I had an ovarian cyst burst. I went to the ER early Tuesday morning, not sure of what my extreme pain was. The Doctor ran a bunch of test and did a CAT scan and found A LOT of blood in my lower abdomen from the burst cyct. I am still in a lot of pain and can barely walk, but I am improving.
