Updates--It's Been Awhile

It has been a crazy busy summer this year. Went straight from being a pharmacy student to a pharmacist within a week from taking the boards in June, lots of wedding planning and attending weddings, having Jeff start school again & changing jobs this week. In the midst of all that, I have not had the chance to update my blog!

Here's a quick run-through...

August 8th: Brooke finally got hitched! It was a beautiful garden wedding in Colville, WA and Brooke looked gorgeous! I am so happy for the two...Congrats Mr. & Mrs. Pickering! :)

August 16th: Jeff's friend Aaron married his longtime girlfriend Sarrina at The Golf Club at Newcastle over this past weekend. Jeff was asked to do the photography and I was his assistant. I realized while I was assisting that taking pictures is a really hard job. The wedding was on the hottest day of the summer and I thought I was going to die from a heat stroke...but we managed to survive the looonnnnnnng day. It was fun attending this wedding because it gave us an idea of what our wedding day will be like, since we are having our reception in the same place. Congrats to those two as well! 

As for me, I've been working for Walgreens at 2 of their Capitol Hill stores and then every other weekend at the Ballard store. It hasn't been too bad...although there are times where I hate it. But what job doesn't make you feel that way I guess. Other than work...I spend my free time wedding planning. Not my idea of fun, but it'll be over soon! We're coming closer to our wedding date, so we've been finalizing all the little details. I hope our wedding day turns out great (considering that I just spent a whole year planning it)!

Jeff is almost done with Summer quarter at the UW. He decided to jump into a whole different career path--Construction Management. I'm proud of him for starting up school again. I sure as hell wouldn't want to go back! He is starting a new job at Lease Crutcher and Lewis today and looked quite handsome in his new work clothes. :)

Well kids, that's all I have for now. Check out facebook for some pics taken from Jeff's friends wedding!
