It seems that it has been basically 3 months since I last updated! I kept trying to update and I would get distracted or our internet wouldn't work. So I put together a picture montage of events from the last 3 months or so, in no particular order. I will try to be better about updating!
On Halloween morning, Evan and I drove over to Eugene to be one of the VERY few USC fans at the USC vs. Oregon game. We had fun tailgating with friends and Evan's work (that's how we got the great free tickets!). Besides the rain and the terrible loss, we had a great time.
We stopped at Sisters Bakery for the first time since we've lived here on the way over! So yummy! At the end of September I was blessed to buy a cheap ticket down to CA for Amanda Wayne's bridal shower! God definitely answered my prayers of wanting to see my college friends so much! I had so much fun hanging out with Ben and Katie in their new home and especially catching up with friends, like Amanda, that I haven't seen in over a year! I am truly blessed by these incredible friends! On the first Sunday in October, I woke up to this scary sight! Evan was hunting with our friend Kip, and needless to say they came this morning, to not spend another night in the cold snow, with no deer to be found. Luckily it melted off the next day! The last weekend of August, we packed up all of our things and moved to this cute, new little house! It is 3 bed, 2 bath, garage, fenced backyard, and most importantly, it has a dishwasher and garbage disposal! Yes, Evan and I have gone almost 2 years without either! We love it so much and love even more that we have more space for more friends and family to visit! September 16 was my 24th birthday! Evan took the day off and surprised me completely by driving to Portland for the day! He had made reservations at this amazing restaurant, Francis, for lunch where I had THE BEST macaroni and cheese (above) that I have EVER had!!! Then we walked around an artsy part of Portland, then went to the mall (since we don't have a real one in Bend :) and Evan bought me this sweatshirt I had wanted so much and the cutest tall black boots that I wanted! That morning I also opened my pasta maker attachment to the Kitchen Aid mixer! Needless to say Evan spoiled me!
This the most amazing authentic Italian restaurant that Evan took me to for my birthday dinner in Portland. The waiters barely spoke English, it was like we walked into a little town in Italy, where the Italian grandpa opens the door for you and the whole family is running the restaurant! We had a house warming part a few weeks after we moved in! It was so fun to have 20+ of our closest friends and family in Bend to hang out with! Evan relived his IM glory days at Davis by playing with our church's softball team. He had such a fun time hanging out with friends and playing softball during the fall! In the picture is Evan, Kip and Jon, some of his closest friends here! For Labor day weekend, Kip and Kristin invited us to spend 4 days with them on Shasta Lake at Kristin's cabin on the lake! We played in the water, played on jet skis, played games with Kip's parents and celebrated Kristin's 24th birthday! We had such a blast and can't wait to go back! At the end of August I drove with Kristin on a last minute trip to Spokane, WA for her friend's wedding! We had so much fun, we spent the night and partied all night with her high school friends in one of the most elaborate, incredible weddings that I've ever been to! Good times and good memories! On August 18, Evan and I celebrated our 2nd anniversary! We had an awesome camping trip planned, below are the pictures of the great camp site we picked out after we drove an hour down the road to the Cascade Lakes. As we were unpacking our car at 8:30 at night, we realized that our tent had to tent poles....after a few pictures, we decided the best thing to do was drive back home :( We ended up having a fun day, we watched Julie and Julia, went to an amazing dinner (above) at 900 Wall in town and had a couple people pay for our dinner for our anniversary!
That's all for now! I will try and do better at updating the blog :)
