Life in the South

The trials and tribulations of parenthood and living away from family from a "Yankee" raising a baby in the south.

It's good to be home again

We had an amazing vacation to the Pacific Northwest, visiting Portland and Seattle. I have never been to the Northwest, and it was the most beautiful place we have ever visited. Really, it was amazing. All in all we hit a total of 17 microbreweries and 5 wineries over the span of a week. We even spent one night at the Rogue Bed and Beer, above one of the microbreweries while in Newport, OR. It was so nice to just have to stumble upstairs when we were done drinking!! We also got to hang out with one of my dear college friends while we were in Seattle, while she prepares to move to Columbus! It was an awesome vacation and couldn't have been timed more perfectly, I really needed it. Here are some pics from our trip (be forewarned, there are a lot!)

On another note, today is the last day of my job, yippee!! I turned in my 2 weeks notice right before we left, and today is the day. I am getting ready to go turn in my company car, and I can't wait to get rid of it. Although, that means that Adam and I are going to get to spend the weekend car shopping, which doesn't sound like that much fun. Anyways, I will be finishing the school year as a high school teacher, the possibility to teach summer school, and I will be teaching next year as well. I finally feel like I am getting back to normal, and I feel like a huge weight has been lifted off of my chest.

I also had an eye doctor appointment yesterday, guess who is seeing 20/20? Yep, me!! I haven't had 20/20 vision since the 2nd grade!! I just have to say that technology is SO amazing!!

    Great OR and WA pics, Cass! It was so so great to see you and Adam, and I'm so happy we were able to catch up 2 evenings in a row! Looks like you did it right while you were in town. :)
