The holidays were wonderful! But we are exhausted! =) I got home from Seattle on December 15th, just time time to escape all of the snow. Since then Josh and I have been busy busy busy! His dad, Bill, was in the hospital for a week. It was a scary time, but by the grace of God, he is doing wonderfully now. Last night we celebrated Bill's retirement from the Chattanooga Fire Department after 28 years.<br /><img src="file:///C:/DOCUME%7E1/Erin/LOCALS%7E1/Temp/moz-screenshot-1.jpg" alt="" /><br /><img src="file:///C:/DOCUME%7E1/Erin/LOCALS%7E1/Temp/moz-screenshot-2.jpg" alt="" /><br />I started a new job with a local contract company and have been working all over Chattanooga.<br />Josh has had two weeks off of work and has caught up on his sleep, housework, and football. =)<br /><br />Our engagement has flown by and now its almost time to go to Mexico to get married. This is one picture from the resort where we will be getting married in just a little over a week.<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_zF-ZLJNbgbc/SWFd5ElqUXI/AAAAAAAAAAk/pq53LizBIy0/s1600-h/aventura-spa-palace.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 274px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_zF-ZLJNbgbc/SWFd5ElqUXI/AAAAAAAAAAk/pq53LizBIy0/s320/aventura-spa-palace.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5287610672575304050" border="0" /></a><br />Doesn't that look nice =) I'll post better pictures once we're there to take them ourselves.Erin and Joshhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09017898382732764015noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4317954716453930254.post-73685982169819366772008-11-30T19:48:00.000-08:002008-11-30T19:54:07.816-08:00Thanksgiving in the Northwest!<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_zF-ZLJNbgbc/STNfrd8wGII/AAAAAAAAAAc/8KQxuaNfq6w/s1600-h/by+the+lake.jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 214px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_zF-ZLJNbgbc/STNfrd8wGII/AAAAAAAAAAc/8KQxuaNfq6w/s320/by+the+lake.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5274664788959434882" border="0" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_zF-ZLJNbgbc/STNfih1lvcI/AAAAAAAAAAU/u3cVPZTdXIc/s1600-h/3007203524_aec8722805_o.jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 0pt 10px 10px; float: right; cursor: pointer; width: 214px; height: 320px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_zF-ZLJNbgbc/STNfih1lvcI/AAAAAAAAAAU/u3cVPZTdXIc/s320/3007203524_aec8722805_o.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5274664635384315330" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />Our engagement hasn't been ordinary by any standards. For most of it I have been living in Seattle and Josh in Chattanooga. Josh came to visit me for Thanksgiving! IT WAS SO MUCH FUN! Josh got to meet all of my cousins from the Seattle area. We toured the city, rode the ferry, went to Pike's Market, and had the most amazing seafood dinner at Salty's on Alki! Hopefully Josh will post pictures soon!!!! **hint hint Josh***<br /><br />I'm glad Josh got to come out here!! It was just hard to let him go back! Working in the Northwest has been an amazing experience, but I am very ready to come home!<br /><br />I'm adding some of our engagement pictures to the blog!Erin and Joshhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09017898382732764015noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4317954716453930254.post-12597837632987050322008-11-25T19:58:00.000-08:002009-01-24T06:01:20.859-08:00My first posting...<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_zF-ZLJNbgbc/SSzPxjkShXI/AAAAAAAAAAM/SJht3aeMkg8/s1600-h/100_1074.JPG"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_zF-ZLJNbgbc/SSzPxjkShXI/AAAAAAAAAAM/SJht3aeMkg8/s320/100_1074.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5272817714011997554" border="0" /></a><br /><span style="font-family:georgia;"><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><span style="font-size:130%;">I thought I would create a blog about us, Erin and Josh.
