I thought it was good, at least my blind little part of it was. I think I will do more reflection later, but now I just want to summarize my holidays.<br /><br />On Christmas Eve we had our 2nd Annual XMas Eve Dinner. It's just where we try to get as many people in our tiny house and make them eat our food. It was great this year.<br /><br /><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_0fAmHC0bmUU/TR-bowKlNBI/AAAAAAAABS8/-81484m_GZ4/s1600/062.JPG"><img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center;

I think it's funny because this is what I do for my job, plan. It's just not what I normally do in my real life. But most people do not see my work side: hours looking in books and the internet, time spent at the library looking for that perfect book, time at thrift stores looking for that perfect material, time in the park also looking for that perfect material, and hours and hours setting up provocations and creating environments in the classroom. This is what I do every day! So, it seems like I am kind of treating the wedding like that. I like to plan. I like looking at these silly websites for inspiration. I like to see how other people do it. The wedding is going to be so us and it's just fun thinking about it.<br /><br />And with that, more inspiration. 8 months to go! 245 days!<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_0fAmHC0bmUU/TQzhPDAlpAI/AAAAAAAABPo/QmLiPg47w5Q/s1600/formals1.jpg"><img style="display: block;

At the end of year, Dylan and I decided we were ready and really wanted to move in together. Ah, lovely. And we were going to wait until summer. Then, because I am a Craig's List junkie, we found this house.<br /><br /><br /><br /><iframe com="" f="q&amp;source=s_q&amp;hl=en&amp;geocode=&amp;q=3508+ne+10th++portland&amp;sll=45.548814,-122.65568&amp;sspn=0.006972,0.013797&amp;gl=us&amp;ie=UTF8&amp;hq=&amp;hnear=3508+NE+10th+Ave,+Portland,+Multnomah,+Oregon+97212&amp;ll=45.549911,-122.65568&amp;spn=0.006972,0.013797&amp;z=16&amp;layer=c&amp;cbll=45.548443,-122.6557&amp;panoid=xlGoH9z_1dl-5MXwO4-RDQ&amp;cbp=12,86.17,,0,9.77" marginheight="0" marginwidth="0" src="http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&amp;source=embed&amp;hl=en&amp;geocode=&amp;q=3508+ne+10th++portland&amp;sll=45.548814,-122.65568&amp;sspn=0.006972,0.013797&amp;gl=us&amp;ie=UTF8&amp;hq=&amp;hnear=3508+NE+10th+Ave,+Portland,+Multnomah,+Oregon+97212&amp;ll=45.557454,-122.651453&amp;spn=0.006972,0.013797&amp;z=14&amp;layer=c&amp;cbll=45.548443,-122.6557&amp;panoid=xlGoH9z_1dl-5MXwO4-RDQ&amp;cbp=12,86.17,,0,9.77&amp;output=svembed" width="425" frameborder="0" height="350" scrolling="no"></iframe><br />It was little, it was perfect, it was in a great neighborhood, it was dreamy. So we went for it! We looked at it with another couple, and then another couple looked at it after us, too. We were a little heartbroken because it seemed like we were not going to get it. Then, about a week later, the landlord called to say that we were in the top 3 for the house and we should know soon. Then, she called the next night to tell us that the decision was too much and couldn't make it before her vacation. We would have to wait 2 weeks for her decision. We waited 3 weeks! And then we got the call this morning! We got the house! Dylan, Holden and I are moving in together at the end of this month! It's really happening!<br /><br />I promise to share more pictures next time we go in! These pictures are weird and random, but they kind of give you the idea of how cute and small it is. It's going need a lot of love, but we can't wait to take that on!

On a Sunday. But before I do, one last summer post.<br /><br />This summer was quick...but one of the best ever. The Best Ever. Summer is for happy hours, vacation to big cities, hugging your best friend, camping, river days, movies, parks, weddings, boat rides, summer games, hanging out with cool kids, blanket brunch, backyard fires, BBQs, good rock shows, bad rock shows, Gatsby cocktail parties, soccer uniforms, hattenfatters, lovely friends - new and old and falling in love. Best Summer Ever!<br /><br />Good stuff...<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_0fAmHC0bmUU/SqPdbRiSGRI/AAAAAAAAA70/LAWVSIobEeU/s1600-h/august10+111.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px;

Vacation was delightful, but I am always really glad to return home. Summer was one of the best ever, but I am super excited for my new teaching adventure. Life is good, in so many ways!<br /><br />I kind of don't have a synopsis of the vacation in me at this moment, but I will post a few pictures.

Really, it was beyond awesome. I received 4 tickets from a family and they have ridiculous seats, as you can tell from the photos. I took Andrew, Megan and Nick. We had a wicked awesome day filled with booze, the watchman, blazers, booze, the steel bridge, dreaming about being able to "watchman" people, the shanghai with friends and a little more booze. It was a great saturday.

Woke up late and hung around the house as I tried my best to avoid what I should be doing. Instead, I knitted in the park, took a walk, collected leaves, began a new neck warmer, cooked chili and watched videos. Now, I should clean off my bed in the extra room, plan for this week and then go be a really good friend and see Dave's band at the ash street.

Now, I need to know what you think. It's a nice vintage piece from Hattie's. I love the colors and it is very similar (the pattern at least) to a Built By Wendy dress that I covet, but cannot afford. I am very sad in these pictures (my best friend just left)...so ignore that.<br /><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_0fAmHC0bmUU/SNVf1Mt14kI/AAAAAAAAAZI/n55atPcNKlk/s1600-h/sept20+040.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_0fAmHC0bmUU/SNVf1Mt14kI/AAAAAAAAAZI/n55atPcNKlk/s400/sept20+040.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5248206308321387074" border="0" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_0fAmHC0bmUU/SNVf0wx1zjI/AAAAAAAAAZA/MAMQnzPLEAQ/s1600-h/sept20+025.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_0fAmHC0bmUU/SNVf0wx1zjI/AAAAAAAAAZA/MAMQnzPLEAQ/s400/sept20+025.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5248206300821966386" border="0" /></a><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_0fAmHC0bmUU/SNVf1e5pykI/AAAAAAAAAZQ/4JN1i9lKLGI/s1600-h/sept20+026.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_0fAmHC0bmUU/SNVf1e5pykI/AAAAAAAAAZQ/4JN1i9lKLGI/s400/sept20+026.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5248206313202764354" border="0" /></a><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_0fAmHC0bmUU/SNVf0tbyh_I/AAAAAAAAAY4/Xn-LMZh_-u0/s1600-h/sept20+004.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_0fAmHC0bmUU/SNVf0tbyh_I/AAAAAAAAAY4/Xn-LMZh_-u0/s400/sept20+004.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5248206299924170738" border="0" /></a><br /><br />I want to dress it up a little.

We (as in the teachers) will meet back up tomorrow to begin preparing for the new school year. I have to admit that I am a bit excited and I really can't wait to jump back in. I miss my work, I miss my job and I miss having a purpose.<br /><br />But...I have one more purposeless day! Therefore, I will veg on the couch (nursing a nice hangover) and find things on the Internet that I like. Then I will share them with you!<br /><br /><ol><li>I love this blog...http://3191.visualblogging.com/. It's about 2 friends who live 3191 miles apart, one in Portland, OR and the other in Portland, ME, and they each take a photo in the evening. They did a year of mornings and it is now becoming a book. They are beautiful pictures and it just makes me wish I was a better friend.<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://my-expressions.com/up_media/5531/pblog/10475/1218195864.jpg"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 400px;" src="http://my-expressions.com/up_media/5531/pblog/10475/1218195864.jpg" alt="" border="0" /></a></li><li>I found these paintings very humorous and fitting.
