Well, Zach and I celebrated our first year as husband and wife. We made a weekend out of it. On Friday the 3rd, I made a big dinner of ribs, Zach's favorite, and salad, fruit and much more. We also received our free anniversary cake from Celebrity Cake Studio, it took us forever to eat it all. On Saturday the 4th, we spent the day with Zach's parents to celebrate our anniversary and Eugene's birthday. Then on Sunday the 5th, we went to church and then out for an early dinner at Red Lobster. It was delicious! After lunch we went for a very nice walk along the Green River next to where we live. It was a very relaxing weekend and so nice just to spend time with each other. We look forward to many more years and adventures together. We are also celebrating our first year by taking a trip to Hawaii. We leave on April 23rd and will return on April 30th. I will post pictures as soon as I can.

GQ Cover

Well, my handsome husband finally made the cover of GQ!

Okay, so that wasn't actually Zach on the original cover. His friends at work had a little too much fun with photoshop. :) It sure looks like the real thing though!

Zach's New Haircut!

Well, I usually cut Zach's hair so that he doesn't have to pay for a barber. Sadly, he doesn't trust me when it comes to trimming around his ears (I don't really trust myself either!), so he usually does that. This time, his hand slipped with the razor and accidentally took a rather large chuck of hair with it. A little upset, and not really sure how to fix the mistake, he decided to shave all of his hair off! It looks very different, but I am getting used to it! I told him, he looks like he just came from boot camp. :)

Zoolights

As you can see, it was snowing a lot!

The beautiful lights.

Mom, Jim and Colin all bundled up!

We enjoyed the shark exhibit, it was inside and warm!

This year, we decided to go to Zoolights as a family. We had a lot of fun! Audra enjoyed riding the merry-go-round, Colin was able to see an anteater, and we were all able to enjoy the beautiful snow! It started to snow on the drive into Tacoma, on our way to Zoolights, and it didn't stop the entire time we were there. It made for a very magical evening!

Happy New Year!

Zach and Jeanette

Lisa and Me

Happy New Year all! We hope you enjoyed new years eve. Zach and I went to my best friends', Jeanette and Lisa, house. We had a lot of fun playing games, watching a movie and eating delicious food! We picked up Chinese food from Panda Express, went back to Jeanette and Lisa's and playing a very fun game of Life. Then we ended the evening by watching one of Zach's favorite films, Iron Man. We had a lot of fun and it was wonderful being able to spend some time with such awesome friends!
