It's official...

1 year, 4 months, and 4 days after graduating.....

I have a PERMANENT full-time job!

As a business woman, nonetheless. Who would have thought?!?!



It is a start, especially during this economy. 

Now that I have a permanent job, Raine and I can move one with life by (in no particular order) planning our wedding, buying  a house, having a baby, graduating from grad school, buying a pet. I can't wait. Finally, things are looking up!

Catch-up (and not the red stuff)

So many things have happened in the past month!

My grandmother from AZ has been in town for the past week, visiting, so I have been hanging out with her as much as possible. Shopping, sight seeing, eating out, going to the movies (I highly recommended "the Help"), you name it we have done it. In our recent shopping excursion, she helped me pick out a couple wedding rings!

(I am in love with this enhancer, I just haven't decided if I want the tradition ring or the enhancer. Decisions, Decisions)

I also like this one...

Raine was excited the rings I picked weren't too expensive. The sale associate was getting him in trouble by showing me anniversary rings. If I got the enhancer, I pair it with a ring similar to this..

In other news, Raine and I experienced our first earthquake on August 23rd, 2011! At first, I thought it was a heavy individual walking by me (the floor already moves when heavy individuals walk by) but then I noticed the floor was shaking much more. A co-worker stood up to say we were having an earthquake. Raine's department evacuated the building. I guess my department doesn't care about us. My mom has earthquake envy. She never felt the earthquake, since she was in a car.

Last weekend, I went to Dagny's 2nd Birthday Party!  I cannot believe it has been two years, since she was born. Rory has the puts on the most amazing birthday parties. If you want to see pictures of the party click for her blog: www.roryelizabeth.blogspot.com My iphone pictures didn't come out that good.


(Pretty birthday girl!)
