We're Engaged!

Yes, Steve and I are officially taking the plunge!

This weekend we took a side trip to Crater Lake on our way to a friend's wedding in Grants Pass. We'd been wanting to see Crater Lake ever since we moved out here, but it is about a 4.5 hour drive from Portland, so we just hadn't made the time until now.

It was sooo beautiful, really breathtaking and I couldn't have imagined a more perfect day!

We hiked around a little, stopped for drinks at the lodge and then towards the end of the day Steve and I stopped to sit and look out over the lake before hitting the road again. That's when he popped the question! Little Parker was even there for the big moment! ;) We are so excited and hope all of our friends will be able to make it out for our big day. We're hoping for something next summer, preferably July. We'll keep you all posted!

New to Blogging

I've been wanting to blog for awhile now, but don't really know much about it. It seems to me that most blogs are sort of just one person's musings and rantings made interactive. So, I guess that's how I'll start! I don't have that much to share really, but you all know that if there is one thing I am, it is a talker. Now I guess I'll attempt to be a writer as well! I figure this might be a nice way to keep in touch with those of you who I don't get to see all that often. So bear with me as a begin this new hobby! Enjoy reading about my ordinary life and please comment back about yours!

Happy Reading!
