Life Updates

Sorry for my short hiatus on blog posting recently. I've been waiting to hear some things before posting. Here are some quick life updates with longer posts to come later.

1. We're going skiing next week! If we remember how. Chris is very excited for this trip. We weren't sure if I was going to get the time off since we had an employee leave at work but I was and we are headed to Mt. Baker for 2 days of skiing - if there is enough snow. :)

2. Keep Chris in your prayers about job opportunities. There is a opening for a viticulture tech position with the wine company he interned with before being laid off and moving to his current position at Syngenta. I hope he gets it! I know he would love it - minus the back-breaking 4 wheeling part. But he would work with wine grapes, be outside, and get a great discount on wine. :)

3. I did not get the Director of Sales at the hotel. But I am ok with that and I am glad I applied. I would have regretted not getting the chance to interview for it. Basically, it came down to the fact that I do not have direct sales experience and we (as a hotel) are so busy right now that we need someone who has experience and can make a smooth transition and handle all the business. Right now, I'm not sure I will continue to look for other jobs but I will blog more on that later.

4. We got our passport photos taken today for Chris to get his and me to renew mine with my married name. This has to do with our vacation planning for this year. More on that later too.

5. Tinkerbell is doing well. She loves going for walks, has discovered a tennis ball is her new favorite toy and had fun chasing our friends Chihuahua around their house the other night. It's funny to me how much she loves other dogs but is still shy around people. We just plan to keep exposing her as much as we can to people and dogs and show her that she can trust people too.
