My Loyal Customer
So, guess who is my loyal customer? You guessed it, Trista! She bought more of my greeting cards today-8 to be exact. I got to meet her little man too! Gosh, I lead such an exciting life. I can't believe I'm off to Huntsville...I'll be blogging about how I met a famous inmate!

Vision San Diego
I got to spend a few days in the beautiful San Diego, CA. I went there for work, on a vision tour for possible future partnerships with churches there. It was a refreshing, encouraging and life-giving time (minus getting up at 3am on Monday and Wednesday =) There are people there planting churches among all different walks of life. San Diego is incredibly diverse, there is one area that in an 8 mile radius, there are over 40 languages spoken in the home. Crazy...beautiful. The last day there we went to the beach to hear from some surfers that are doing church plants among the surfing community...cool, huh? It turned out that one of the church planters used to be in one of my most favorite punk rock bands, Dogwood. I'm pretty sure I had an insane crush on him in high school...but he's married and has kids. Aside from the beautiful scenery and great weather, my favorite thing there was definitely the diversity. When you see all different people from all walks on life and all different countries...I think you just see the beauty of the Lord. I hope to make it out there again sometime in the near future. I won't mind living there either. =)
TAG your man
I got taged by Diana...
1. Who is your man? Richard Ross-yes, I married a Dick!
2. How long have you been together? married 2, dated 1...so, 3
3. How long dated? 1 yr
4. How old is your man? 28 on Nov. 28th
5. Who eats more? Ross--I try to feed him too much so he will gain a little weight--it never works.
6. Who said "I love you" first? He did.
7. Who is taller? me ...now our kids stand some chance to not be giants
8. Who sings better? totally me...maybe it is b/c I am always singing...it's like a game in the morning to see what song I will wake up with in my head...Ross does not get songs stuck in his head--is that weird?
9. Who is smarter? Ross, I went to school for longer but I think Ross is a genius...He really knows a lot and is always learning...he is always looking for a challenge with his mechanical skills and tackles things rarely tried before.
10. Whose temper is worse? We're both pretty even tempered, but I definately get more moody and don't talk.
11. Who does the laundry? Me...I'm tall and no one is allowed to touch my clothes...if one gets into the dryer and shrinks, it's seriously the end of the world. Plus, Ross' clothes are greasy and have to be washed with a can of coke to get the grease out.
12. Who takes out the garbage? Ross...it's even his job to chase after the bears who get into our trash!
13. Who sleeps on the right side of the bed? if you are looking at the bed, I sleep on the left of our full size bed...our room is so small, I'm actually on the side that touches the wall.
14. Who pays the bills? Me. If I don't just do it, I get all stressed out about it.
15. Who is better with the computer? me. Ross has to look at the keys to type...I told him to take a class and he thinks looking at the keys is just fine.
16. Who mows the lawn? our land lord won't buy us a lawn mower, so we don't mow it. :) Every once in a while, Ross go at it with the weed wacker.
17. Who cooks dinner? i do. Ross insists sometimes but usually it takes so long that I prefer to do it.
18. Who drives when you are together? Ross.
19. Who pays when you go out? We both dig it out of our wallets.
20. Who is most stubborn? I asked Ross and he had no reasons, he just said I was.
21. Who is the first to admit when they are wrong? Ross
22. Whose parents do you see the most? It's probably about the same. Ross' mom lives in Denver and we only see her 1 day at a time. My parents come up from TX for a month at a time.
23. Who kissed who first? Ross kissed me first.
24. Who asked who out? He asked me out...I had no idea.
25. Who proposed? Ross.

29. Who wears the pants in the family? me...no, we usually either agree or I can't decide and let Ross make the decision.

Washington State
Ross and I had a great time when we went to Washington state the the beginning of October. We took a tour around the whole state....here are our favorite moments:
Having an Orange Mocha Frap at the very first Bucks in Seattle!
Meeting Ross' grandma Neva, grandpa Bill & Uncle Mel in Aberdeen
The Pacific Ocean....my first sites were from Callie's bedroom...I said, "I C DA SEA!"
We got to see really big trees in the HOH rainforest in Olympia Nat. Park
The pacific...weird mountains in the sea along with gigantic drift wood.
The Fall Colors
Ferry Boats- Mt. Baker in the background
The Sunrise on Orcas Island
The starfish on Orcas Island
Ferry Boats!!! We kinda have a thing for Ferry Boats (or we have a thing for Greys and therefore like to say that).
Crossing the Canadian Boarder--I've never seen a sign like this, I had to take a picture! The boarder crossing officials totally sweated us b/c we were taking pictures--we had to show them all the pictures on our camera. I'm so sure we would come at night to take pictures of the boarder crossing.
JoshWA at his college in Vancouver, BC
Callie & Ross at Bellingham Bay, WA
Stay tuned for my Salmon video.
