Hiking

Posted on Jul 15, 2009

Before it hit the hundreds and the Goodriches left for the summer, we all went on a hike out at Red Rock. It was a great time. I even saw my first set of WILD BURROS! That’s right friends, wild burros. Apparently miners let them free after they were finished using them and now they run amok out there in the desert. Rad.

Cover Letter Assistance

Posted on Jul 14, 2009

I know many of you are currently hunting for jobs. My friend Amy Middleton made a fabulous Powerpoint that clearly outlines how you can write the best cover letter to get you the job you want and need.

I found it incredibly insightful. There were tips I had used before but I only scratched the surface. The opening illustration makes a lot of sense and made me realize I was being WAY too general and generic in my cover letters.

Check it out!

Allie & Adam 7-3-09

Posted on Jul 13, 2009

Sir Luke and I ventured to Los Angeles for 4th of July weekend to attend my good friend Allie’s marriage to her husband Adam. It was a lovely wedding and I am so glad we were able to go. There were so many lovely details everywhere. They even had their own drinks that matched her wedding colors!

In attendence were Sir Luke, Keri J, and me. We ran into an old friend from elementary school, Diana Carmany. It was so sureal. Then my high school friend Ashley showed up randomly as he was bartending at the bar next to the gorgeous reception site at the Weslake Inn.

It was a grand day!



The House Phase 1

Posted on Jul 10, 2009

As requested here are some photos of the progress of our future home.

Here is our dirt plot:

Here is the house that will be across the lawn:

Here is the lawn that will line up with ours across the street. Our house will face a lawn and the house across from us will face it as well. The garage is in the back. Guest parking on the street.

They’ve cemented the slab with all the piping and the city boxes for meter reading are up, but that’s about it. I’ll update you next Friday when we’re a little further along. I’m told this whole process will move surprisingly fast. We can’t wait. We’re so excited!
