This trip was for Jim’s work! Jim attends an annual conference that was in San Diego this year, and a lot of the wives go along on this trip. He asked me maybe a year ago if I would join him on this one, and of course I said yes. It was five whole daysContinue reading “A Conference in San Diego”

More Minecraft
My work recently has revolved quite a bit around Minecraft. I’m enjoying learning more. I’m starting to see lessons for Minecraft pop up in the world around me, and that’s a good thing because I’ll be writing lessons (and managing other writers and world builders) for the next few months… the company I work forContinue reading “More Minecraft”
Weekend in Lake Chelan
We realized at the beginning of October that we were on a streak: we’d planned a camping trip every single month of 2018 – except November. So we quickly took a look around and decided to book two nights at Lake Chelan’s city park for Veteran’s Day Weekend. It was such a fun trip! WeContinue reading “Weekend in Lake Chelan”
Day Trip to Reno
I had a client meeting in Reno on Monday, so I flew down in the morning and back in the evening. Our senior manager Jenn met me there, and we did a little team planning as well. Our first task was to find a smoke-free Starbucks. As a Washington girl, this seemed simple. It wasContinue reading “Day Trip to Reno”
Halloween 2018
We hosted our annual pizza party before trick-or-treating for our neighborhood crew! (I was working in Seattle that week but, because my boss is awesome, she offered to meet up in West Seattle for the morning. So I ferried over, worked at Starbucks for a few hours, had a yummy Mediterranean lunch, and ferried homeContinue reading “Halloween 2018”
86 extra hours
That’s how many overtime hours I accrued in October! It was a busy month. The company I work for launched a new partnership with another company, and I’m in charge of all that entails: training, content, and resources. The owner of the other company was in Seattle for two weeks as part of the ventureContinue reading “86 extra hours”
Pumpkins
We ordered a personalized pumpkin for the first time this year… and it was more stressful than I thought, coordinating a time in our schedule to go pick it up! But we did, and it was cute, and we put it on the porch. I also grabbed two big pumpkins from Costco for carving. HaleyContinue reading “Pumpkins”
Point Ruston
We decided to celebrate Grandma Keene’s birthday at Point Ruston, and the weather was phenomenal for an evening dinner on the waterfront! We had dinner at a great burger and whiskey place and then walked around for a bit. We ended the evening at Ice Cream Social, the best ice cream shop in Tacoma withContinue reading “Point Ruston”
Buddy Walk 2018
We look forward to the Buddy Walk every year (especially when it’s a gorgeous Seattle day). We go to support our nephew Russell, who has Down’s Syndrome. It is a really fun event. We were lucky to have amazing weather this year! Russell and Grandpa Keene… somehow I did not get a single picture ofContinue reading “Buddy Walk 2018”
Fall Favorite Things
My friend Toni threw a Fall Favorite Things party… and it was so fun! We each brought six items that we loved about fall, like candles, coffee cups, nail polish, scarves, etc. Then we snacked and ate dinner and drank Moscow Mules and laughed and got to take home six new things from everyone else’sContinue reading “Fall Favorite Things”
