Its been awesome running this bad boy since 2010 and continuing to develop it in to something new, but its time for a change, so i've created a blank slate, a brand new space to work with. Check it out. Follow along. Stay tuned for more.<br />

<b>How does one return to blogging after a 5 month hiatus?</b><br />
<br />
First let's establish the reason for my nearly half year departure from something I worked on so meticulously in the past - a wedding. Not just any wedding, my wedding. Yep, that's right, I return to you as someone's wife (which still sounds strange to me after ten freaking years).<br />
<br />
Around the time of my last post, wedding planning/designing/crafting, insanity began to shift my life balance in to dangerously stressful territory, so I had to cut something out for my own peace of mind, and unfortunately my blogging platform had to give. Incidentally I have so much to say/post/document, but so little time to play catch up on everything. As I sit here typing this out, my head is filled with our upcoming trip to Europe in just two short weeks... Basically getting things back to normal, i'm afraid, seems damn near impossible.<br />
<br />
As much as i've enjoyed working on My Week posts over the past year or so, moving forward I think I am going to have to edit things down a bit more. My plan is to focus more on the the big events, trips, milestones, etc. and less on the every day. Please bare with me as I continue to catch up on those promised posts from the past year (Telluride, San Francisco, John Day, every little wedding detail, birthdays, and soon our honeymoon).<br />
<br />
<b>One day in the not so distant future I will be back at it, but for now please allow me to get things in my life back to my version of "normal".</b><br />
<b><br /></b>
<b>In the meantime, I leave you with our <a href="http://www.patandjenncelebrateten.com/" target="_blank">wedding website</a> (that I worked super hard on) to comb through, as well as our awesome preview video! </b><br />
<b>And one of these days I promise you will see some "new" posts popping up.</b><br />
<br />

<br />
We made it out a bit more last week to meet up with friends, celebrate St. Patty's Day, and spend a pretty awesome sunny day at Mt. Bachelor finally breaking in our snow shoes. We just happened to stumble on a little free tour led by the park rangers for beginners that was pretty awesome, so we decided to give that a try. I can't wait to get back up there and wander around on our own next time. It seems like you can really go anywhere with these things.<br />

<br />
I'm still trying to catch up a bit, so I'm going to be doubling up a few weeks until everything is back to normal. I apologize for the lack of attention to the blog lately, but I have discovered that planning a wedding is a pretty time consuming process!<br />
<br />
On 3/6 we headed to Portland for the weekend so that I could do a little bridesmaid dress shopping with my little sisters. Shopping was unsuccessful, but it was an absolutely beautiful weekend, and we got to spend plenty of time outside in the sunshine with friends and family.<br />
<br />
The following weekend we stuck around town and did some hiking and tasting... pretty standard.<br />
<br />

<br />
The two weeks that followed my trips to California and the Frace wedding in Portland were pretty mellow (aside from my computer crashing and me having to buy a new one), so I am combing the two in an attempt to get all caught up sooner than later. Here are the pics, including some pretty epic Bend sunsets, ice cream in the snow, and suit shopping for Pat.<br />

<i style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: x-large;">monday 2/9 - sunday 2/15</i><br />
<br />
First off, I have a few random pictures from the night before I flew our to San Jose. Me and Pat decided to grab dinner downtown and ended up scoring a giant seafood tagine at Joolz for the special price, score! It was delicious. Obviously I spent two weeks in and out of California... which I will get to soon, and we FINALLY got our Save The Dates out, which made me very happy.<br />

Now then, on to the post... The week was mostly spent playing catch up from California, but on Thursday night we headed over the pass to Portland for our friends Alex and Drea's wedding. Our friend Molly and her boyfriend were nice enough to let us stay in their awesome apartment, right up the street from the venue, which turned out to be perfect for the whole weekend.</div>

Pat was one of the groomsmen, so on Friday we met up with everyone at Bridgeport Brewery for the rehearsal, and then headed to Lucky Lab for lunch. Afterward, I hung out with Drea for a bit while the boys picked up their tuxes, and then met back up with everyone for drinks. </div>

Saturday morning we grabbed some brunch at a little cafe below her building, relaxed for a bit, and then Pat went off to do groomsmen stuff while I got ready. </div>

Since the wedding was on Valentine's Day we finally got to spend one together and I was really excited! I even bought a cute new dress for the occasion. </div>

The venue was a private event space inside Bridgeport Brewery, and it was perfect for their intimate wedding. The ceremony was so sweet and I am super happy for the two of them! My absolute favorite detail of the wedding was the Voodoo Doughnut "cake" display, though their gold "Best Day Ever" backdrop was pretty awesome as well. </div>

Once we finally got up Sunday morning we walked up the street to Brix Tavern to grab brunch with Molly and ended up running in to the bride and groom at a coffee shop on the way. They both seemed super happy and glad to have a day (mostly) to themselves after all the family craziness from the few days before. We said our goodbyes, grabbed a delicious brunch (complete with more free doughnuts), and then headed back over the pass for home. Though it was hard to leave such a beautiful Portland day behind. </div>

I know it seems as though I have been MIA for a while, but I have been traveling for a few weeks and am just starting to settle back in to real life. From San Jose, Santa Cruz, and San Francisco to La Quinta and Palm Springs to Portland life has been a bit busy lately, but don't worry, I am going to get back to normal blogging as soon as possible. I still have Telluride to catch up on before I can start tackling all these pics, so stay tuned for some big posts over the next few months.<br />
<br />
In the meantime, here is a preview of the pictures I posted while I was in the Golden State.<br />

<br />
Last weekend me and Pat headed to Hood River to meet Alex and surprise Tony for his 30th birthday. I was so excited to finally stay over night and be able to explore the area more fully, and aside from the rain situation, I was not disappointed.<br />
<br />
On Friday after work me and Pat headed out, making a stop at Wild Ride in Redmond to grab a late lunch. We grabbed the pastrami sandwich from FoodFellas, and it was amazing! Seriously, there was an onion ring in it. Yum. The drive itself was beautiful since it was a perfectly clear day and we headed through the Dalles. I had also contacted the woman me and Pat have talking to about puppies and she was nice enough to let us stop by so that we could meet her and her Frenchies. They were freaking adorable! There was one named Frodo that I absolutely wanted to steal.<br />

After we were done we headed the rest of the way to Hood River (crossing a toll bridge from Lyle Washington) and waiting for the ok from Alex to sneak over to the house we rented. Tone was definitely surprised to see us, so it worked out perfectly. Once we settled in we headed to Pfriem for dinner and drinks. They take influence from Belgium, and their food is some of the best "pub" food I have had. Me and Pat shared the mussels and their fried chicken. While the other two got a burger and said it was one of the best they had ever had. From there we went back to the house (just a few blocks away) and us girls crushed the boys at beer pong.<br />

Saturday we woke up to some seriously gloomy skies and tons of rain, but that didn't stop us from exploring the town. We ate breakfast at the house, grabbed umbrellas, and headed out. We decided to hit up wineries first, and started at Naked (where we are members). They were pouring us so many tastes that we ended up staying there for a long time and then wanted to switch to beer after, so I wouldn't say we really took full advantage of the region in that category. After Naked we walked over to Full Sail and enjoyed some lunch in their heated patio before wandering further down the street to Double Mountain for a taster tray and a few pints. At this point we weren't quite hungry yet, or ready to head back to the house already, so we ended up at a place called River City where we played darts, had some more beers, and eventually shared some wings, nachos, and tater tots (the stereotypical "i've been drinking all day" order). It was late at this point, so we started our long journey home on foot, and then called it a night.<br />

<br />
On Sunday we checked out of the house and wandered around in search of a place to grab brunch and watch the Seahawks game. Unfortunately we wound up at a place called Big Horse Brew Pub, which was absolutely TERRIBLE. Not only was the food bland and just overall not right, but the prices were on the spendy side, so it was a total waste of a morning. Also, while we were there the Seahawks were just playing like garbage, so we were ready for a change of scenery. Oddly enough almost no places in Hood River actually have TV's, so we headed back to River City where we promptly found a nice table where we could see the game. At this point we were very disheartened to learn that they had an affordable brunch that sounded delicious, because we had already eaten our fill of crap food. Now we know better. Our waitress, overhearing us, even acknowledged how terrible that place is and apologized that we had wound up there first. Not only was this place a much better change of scenery, but the Seahawks ended up making the most insane comeback I have ever seen, and Alex, who is from Seattle, was super excited.<br />
<br />
The energy in the bar ended up being really fun after that win (naturally), so we lightened up quite a bit and decided to head back to Double Mountain to grab one last beer and some pizza for dinner. As it turns out, our waitress from River City was now working a night shift at Double Mountain and when she recognized us she gave us free beers to make up for our morning. Score.<br />
<br class="Apple-interchange-newline" />
At this point Alex and Tony decided they didn't feel like driving back to Salem and booked a hotel room, and though that was tempting, we still said our goodbyes and headed home.<br />

<br />
The week of New Year's was cold and snowy, just how we wanted it! I don't see myself getting tired of scenes like the ones below out my window anytime soon. Instead of making crazy plans to go out or host a party we decided to just stay and ring in the new year together. It was pretty perfect. We grabbed some delicious king crab to make for dinner, drank some really good wine, and donned fancy hats and "bowties". On New Year's Day we woke up (without hangovers) and headed to our friends place to watch the Rose Bowl. Friday we both worked, and then we spent the weekend wandering around town and enjoying the weather.<br />

I was ready to say good riddance and move on to 2015 until I started working on this and realized that despite the tough moments, 2014, overall, was still a really exciting year full of new and positive experiences. In no particular order, here are 2014's key events. </b><br />

<span style="font-size: large;"><b>1)</b></span> In February Pat had to leave for NBA All Star in New Orleans, and I decided to meet him at the end of his trip so that we could spend a few days together exploring the area. It was definitely a unique adventure. Though still a large city, this was my first experience with anything in the South so there was a big leap in terms of the culture from what I am used to. I loved taking in the history of the city as well as the old architecture and trying out some new dishes, like fried catfish prepared several different ways and alligator cheesecake (yes, you heard that right). Sandwiches at Butcher and late night visits to Cafe DuMonde for beignets and coffee with chicory were also a definite highlight, along with the famed music scene on Frenchman Street and throughout the Quarter. One thing that shocked me about NOLA (aside from the prices) was the fact that everything, I mean everything, came fried or sautéed, including the vegetables. I was in dire need of some fresh water and a salad by the time we got home. All in all the trip was a great experience, and I hope to return some day.

<b style="font-size: x-large;">2)</b> In June, me and Pat met his dad and stepmom in Walla Walla, Washington for a long weekend of wine tasting throughout the region. The wine was amazing and we had a great time exploring the area (pretty thoroughly I might add despite the overwhelming amount of tasting rooms and vineyards to choose from). By far my favorite stop was to K Vintners (Charles Smith) for both the wines and the aesthetic of their brand. On the last day we decided to take off a little early and make a pit stop in Hood River, which is quickly becoming one of our new favorite places. We also enjoyed some delicious meals throughout the trip, and still have a fully stocked wine fridge.

<b style="font-size: x-large;">3)</b> Work this year has been insane both with new projects we have taken on and travel for both me and Pat. While he went to New Orleans (twice - for NBA All Star, and Wrestlemania), Phoenix, Vancouver BC (for Heritage Classic) and Portland (for the MLS All Star Game), I went to Telluride Colorado twice for a new hotel property we picked up this year. Though the workload has been pretty overwhelming for me over the past few months, the trips to Colorado were amazing. Telluride is such a unique small town in a beautiful area completely surrounded by mountains. We went toward the end of the summer season, as well as in the fall as the leaves were beginning to change colors (golden season they call it) and both times the landscape was drastically different. I would love to visit in the winter when everything is covered in snow, and am definitely bringing Pat with me next time! (I have not sat down to do these posts quite yet, but hope to get to them very soon since I took a ton of great pictures).<br />

<b style="font-size: x-large;">4)</b> We spent most of 2014 really settling in to our new life in Bend, which also included a lot more local hikes and adventures.

<b style="font-size: x-large;">6)</b> Me and Pat took a trip to <a href="http://jennblech.blogspot.com/2014/06/our-yearly-day-trip-to-newport.html" target="_blank">Newport</a> to take our annual Wally the Walrus pick, celebrated our <a href="http://jennblech.blogspot.com/2014/07/nine.html" target="_blank">9th anniversary</a> <a href="http://jennblech.blogspot.com/2014/08/my-week-in-pictures-62.html" target="_blank">in town</a>, spent an awesome afternoon shooting our <a href="http://jennblech.blogspot.com/2014/08/a-little-sneak-peak-of-our-engagement.html" target="_blank">engagement pictures</a> at Smith Rock (I still need to do a full post of these), and started actually planning a wedding. 2015 is going to be a BIG year for us!<br />

<b style="font-size: x-large;">7)</b> While Pat was on a business trip in Canada I got in a <a href="http://jennblech.blogspot.com/2014/03/perspective-recent-events.html" target="_blank">car accident</a> on the way to work, when I slipped on some back ice and collided with a large pickup truck pulling a trailer. Thankfully I did everything I could have without panicking, and by the time we connected I was going under 30 mph so no one was injured despite us both pulling a 180 in to the opposite lane. The Subaru itself was not so lucky and was declared totalled. The accident was probably the scariest moment of my life and what made it worst was that I was all alone, in the snow, and had to suck it up and drive on the same back road to get to work the next day. Though I was devastated to have lost our car (the car I learned to drive in even) we did get a lot more money than we expected back from the insurance company and were able to put a nice downpayment on something a little nicer. I now drive around (very carefully or not at all in the ice) in an <a href="http://jennblech.blogspot.com/2014/04/pimp-my-ride.html" target="_blank">Audi A4 Avant</a> and love it! Unlike the Sube, the air conditioning and heat works, as well as the speakers, headlights, and windshield wipers, and then of course there is the whole navigation, bluetooth speakers, seat warmers, and the car just being way nicer overall thing... So all in all, it worked out ok (aside from our insurance premium jumping).<br />

<b style="font-size: x-large;">8)</b> We got to go to a few concerts this year, though as usual, not as many as I would have liked. In March we met with Brad and saw <a href="http://jennblech.blogspot.com/2014/03/tool.html" target="_blank">TOOL</a> at the Rosegarden (I will not call it by its new name). That was a pretty crazy show in terms of the insane amount of people from all over, the light display, and the fact that security was actually trying to stop people from taking pictures (uh, good luck with that), though I have to say that such a large concert felt a bit too impersonal and would not be my first choice in the future. That being said, I am still pumped that we get to check this one off the list. In March me, Pat, and Tony saw <a href="http://jennblech.blogspot.com/2014/03/memphis-may-fire-or-that-one-time-i-got.html" target="_blank">Memphis May Fire</a> (again) at a small venue in Portland and I got to go crowd surfing for the first time (and stage dive)! It may have resulted in me getting bashed in the face and walking away with a few battle wounds, but it was still an amazing show. We also posted up across the river and listened to some free <a href="http://jennblech.blogspot.com/2014/09/my-week-in-pictures-67-labor-day-weekend.html" target="_blank">Dave Matthews Band</a> in Bend and checked out a few other local shows throughout the year.<br />

<b style="font-size: x-large;">10)</b> The lowest moment in 2014 was loosing my grandmother who has battled with parkinson's for decades. It is still hard to think of words to say that have not already been said. She was an amazing woman who did so much for her grandchildren, and I am so thankful that I got to spend so much time with her. She truly shaped me in to the person I am today. You can read my full post to her here: <a href="http://jennblech.blogspot.com/2014/11/a-post-for-you.html" target="_blank">Norma Jean</a>.<br />

After Christmas we stayed in Portland for the weekend and ran around town. On Friday we did a little beer tasting on the Eastside, which lead us to HUB, Ecliptic, Storm Breaker, and Prost! for some German varieties.<br />

On Saturday we went out wine tasting with Megan, her little sister Anna, and boyfriend. It was a super rainy and gloomy day, but the fog and raindrops were actually really beautiful. We went through Carlton and Dundee visiting Selena, Du Ponte, Seven of Hearts, Domaine Serene (where we tried their $75 bottle of chardonnay and then bailed because they were blatantly ignoring us), and Stoller. We wanted to hit a few more in Carlton, but most of their tasting rooms were closed for some reason. </div>

After wine tasting we headed back to Portland, freshened up, and then went downtown to dinner with my family. Our table seriously keeps growing and growing every year, and this time there were 13. We went to Irving Street Kitchen again, and as always, the fried chicken and butterscotch pudding were amazing. I also turned everyone on to one of my favorite beers, Duchess de Bourgogne.</div>

On Sunday morning before heading out of town I grabbed brunch and pop rock mimosas with Megan and Tiff at Swift. I also asked Tiff to be my final bridesmaid, and Megan to be my maid of honor. She cried, and it was amazing. Now I have my whole side of the wedding party! All my proper ladies. We should probably get to securing the guys now... After brunch we headed back over the snowy pass to our little home. Another successful Christmas. </div>

<b>Every year me and Pat do a ton of running around during the holidays because we have to many different houses to visit. This year was no exception. This is part one of our mini Christmas vacation. I will post the rest of our weekend adventures tomorrow.</b><br />
<br />
<br />
This year we started in Brasada with Pats mom, little brother, step brother and his two little ones. We had a really delicious dinner, played a lot of dominos, and chased the kids around all evening. In the morning we exchanged gifts and then headed for Tigard to spend have Christmas Eve at my moms.<br />

We got to my moms place the night before Christmas Eve, so we were able to run some errands during the day before picking up my Grandpa for dinner. It was great to spend time with everyone, stuff my face with mashed potatoes, choose our white elephant gifts, take some Pocketbooth pics, and watch Christmas Vacation as is tradition.</div>

After the Christmas Eve festivities, we headed over to my dads to get our special PJs, which were hilarious this year (as usual), and then to my friends place to spend the night. In the morning we "got dressed" and went back over to his place in time for presents. Santa brought me and Pat a GoPro this year!! I am SO excited to start documenting our adventures in a new way!!! While we were all exchanging gifts I gave my sisters a special present asking them to be my bridesmaids, and Destiny to be my "flower girl", which she has been asking if she could be for years now. Literally. They all agreed of course. Afterwards, we made breakfast and bloody mary's, and then lazed around for most of the day (still in our PJs). Eventually we all got started on dinner, and then finished the night off with a giant game of Cards Against Humanity (I won!) and a jammie photoshoot. Notice the guys's excellent butt flaps. Pat's reads "Moose Caboose". </div>

We still wanted to do something special though, so we "dressed up" (with matching bow ties and fancy hats), made a delicious king crab dinner, and drank some really good bottles of wine. 2015 is going to be a really amazing year for the two of us, I can't wait!<br />

I am working on my 2014 wrap up now, and will be posting it as soon as I finish up our Christmas adventures, but in the meantime, here is a short little video wrap up with some of our favorite moments. :)<br />

<br />
This week was heavy on the work load, and light on the extra curriculars in anticipation of the Christmas madness that is about to start. On Friday we launched a brand new website, which has been a monster project for our little team at work... for months... I seriously doubted we would get it done in time, (especially with plans for a spa day/work party Friday afternoon), but somehow it all came together. Actually not "somehow", it all came together from enough late nights and early mornings that I felt like I was in college again. Work/Life balance? Weekends? What are those things?<br />
<br />
Luckily I also managed to get a few errands done throughout the week, like a couple last minute shopping trips, wrapping presents, and a haircut (which was way overdue). No matter how early I start on holiday preparation it seems like I am always scrambling to get everything ready right before we leave for Portland, and work just brought that up a notch this year. Below I have just a few pictures from last week.<br />

<br />
Week, work.<br />
<br />
Over the weekend we headed to Salem to see Tony, Alex, and Rory before he went back to Idaho (waahhhhh *sad face*). We actually ended up seeing a ton more people than that on Saturday, so the weekend was really fun. Also, who knew that Salem has some good places to eat/drink now? That definitely didn't seem like the case a few years ago. On Friday we headed straight to Gilgamesh and met everyone for dinner and some beers before going back to the house and hanging out. Me and Alex ended up sitting in the garage in Tony's car project slash "piece of metal" for several hours talking and went to bed very very late/early, so Saturday was a little rough. Worse for her though, she had to work in the morning!<br />
<br />
In the afternoon we met up with Dave and did a little Christmas shopping before heading downtown to a whiskey bar to meet more friends and grab some dinner. Afterwards we went to Archive, which is a coffee bar by day, and serves drinks at night. The atmosphere was awesome and so were the drinks. I will definitely be back one day. They also had some pretty sweet straw/stirrers... and I might have accidentally totally on purpose taken one. Oops? Next we met even more people at Coin Jam, which is an arcade that has snacks and beer. Me and Alex got in a pretty serious air hockey battle (I lost), and Pat and Tonys cousin Chris battled over Street Fighter. It was a fun night.<br />
<br />
On Sunday we grabbed a very late brunch at Word of Mouth (also new, and delicious) and then headed through the fog back over the pass for home.<br />

<br />
Last week was busy busy busy with work, but we did manage to actually get out of the house a few times, thankfully.<br />
<br />
I was super excited for Saturday because we had made plans to go get the breakfast and the Christmas tree in the morning and then do lights, but I ended up having to work on a project for a few hours in the morning (after working on it all night) which majorly stalled our plans. By the time we were able to leave it was late afternoon, but we figured we could still do the tree, right? Wrong. We got about three blocks in the Audi before it started shaking violently and the check engine light came on. Great. So we drove back home, parked it since no mechanics were working that day, and went to leave in the Maxima. Pat gets in, attempts to start it, and the battery in dead, much to our surprise/dismay. At this point its late afternoon and we haven't eaten anything, so I head inside to make brunch while Pat keeps messing with the car. After burning up our portable battery charger he tries to jump the car with the messed up Audi and still nothing. Eventually he gets a stroke of genius and unplugs his car charger and it starts right up. Moral of the story, don't leave those things plugged in because some cars continue to charge their ports even when they are turned off! Now its nighttime, so we just run some errands and decide to try Christmas the next day.<br />
<br />
Sunday was much better. We made breakfast at home, but we were able to go get a Christmas tree and get the lights all done. We spent the night decorating the tree, listening to Christmas music, having some festive beverages, and watching How The Grinch Stole Christmas. Perfect. (Oh, and unlike last year, our tree was perfectly thawed when we picked it out, no defrosting needed, and no bug infestation so far).<br />

The Audi is also fine by the way. We took it in Monday and I guess it was one of the coils, whatever that means... so our mechanic was able to get it fixed that day for just a little over $100. Phew!<br />

<br />
I pretty much failed at taking pictures again this week, but Thanksgiving was super mellow, which was much needed. During the week I met up with a friend for dinner at Wild Rose, a Thai restaurant I actually hadn't tried yet. It was delicious! I think even better than the food was the fact that all of the forks were gold and had different fancy designs on them. I am easily pleased.<br />
<br />
For Thanksgiving, we went to Pats dads place in Sunriver where we ate way too much food, drank way too much wine, played darts, put on onsies (again), had an impromptu dance party... you know, the usual. We brought over some cranberry brie bites and made some super addictive jalapeño popper dip. On black Friday we sat around and watched movies, like The Wizard of Oz, which I was really excited about, and did some online shopping.<br />
<br />
Saturday we headed back home, put on our Beaver gear, and then went out to watch Civil War. We got our asses kicked... no real surprise there. But I still had fun cheering on our team, and looking awesome while doing so, obviously.<br />

<br />
I really hurt my back last week, so I was terrible at taking pictures even though we spent the weekend in Portland, but I did manager to snap a few good ones.<br />
<br />
Busy weekend. Lot's of people. Here's the rundown: The snow stuck around for the most of the week, but the pass cleared off just in time for us to head to Portland Friday night for my brothers bday. Unfortunately I completely forgot to take any pictures, so all I have are the photobooth shots me and Guenther took. My bad. On Saturday we met up with Brad, Alia, and their daughter Henley to do some shopping and hang out. She is a cute little bugger! I even held her without being scared (mostly). We also grabbed lunch with my dad. That night went out with Tony, Alex, and Hayden on 23rd for dinner and drinks. Sunday we grabbed lunch with my mom and grandpa before heading to Salem to visit Pats grandma in the hospital after her heart surgery. She, being like the energizer bunny, is back home now.<br />
<br />
It was pouring down rain the entire time we were in the valley, so we got to drive through a flooding I-5 when we were heading out. Endless weeks of rain, I do not miss you at all.<br />

<br />
Alright, so I have been slacking on my posting lately... things are just insanely busy around here, so I haven't had as many pictures as I usually do. Therefore I am skipping the first week in November and jumping forward to the next one where there was a lot more going on.<br />
<br />
We got our first snow of the season! And it was a pretty decent amount of snow too! We went to bed Wednesday night and woke up to about 12 inches and a steady snowfall throughout the entire day. I love it when it snows over here (as long as I have a driver). Over the weekend we went on lots of walks and played in the snow every chance we got.<br />
<br />
Enjoy tons of white washed photos below. :)<br />

<i style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: x-large;">December 20th, 1934 - September 7th, 2014</i><br />
<br />
<i>(this is going to be a long and emotional one)</i><br />
<br />
<i>I wanted to write this post much sooner... but I just couldn't find the words yet. There has been so much going on in my life that I didn't feel like I had the proper time to sit down and reflect on her life and what it really meant to me, until now. I went through old photos and found it very therapeutic and was finally able to really start piecing things together, so here we go... two months later...</i><br />
<br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><i>Grandma Norma, Where do I even find the words to begin?</i></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><i>Recently my grandmother ended her battle with Parkinson's, which she had been valiantly fighting for well over a decade. Closer to two I believe. She was a strong and stubborn woman, a loving and selfless woman, who spoiled me and my little sister rotten (in the best way possible), and helped shape me into the person I am today. I will never stop missing her.</i></span><br />
<br />
<br />
I am so so grateful that I was able to spend as much time as I did with her throughout my young life. Her and my grandpa served as my caretakers while my parents worked, so I was fortunate enough to spend practically every single day with them. I have so many fond memories from those days. Some of my earliest memories in fact are using the cart in her kitchen to "deliver" spices to her cupboards, which I typically ended up emptying out at some point during my pretending. She never discouraged my imagination or creativity, and for that I am truly thankful. I loved that house in San Jose... their shaggy dog Sandy, the lemon tree in the backyard, the cats who wanted nothing to do with me, pretty much everything aside from nap time. It always felt like such a safe place because she was there.<br />
<br />
Once I lost my favorite stuffed animal (a bunny of course) and was devastated, so she bought me a new one and spent hours washing it, and roughing it up, even going so far as to dent the nose to look like the little teeth marks I had put in it so that I would think she had found my bunny. When she presented it to me I immediately saw through the forgery but soon adopted it as mine. A while later, when I had held on to this one without incident, she presented me with another identical (though less worn out) version of the stuffed animal. She had purchased multiples just so that I would never have to be without my favorite thing. Her family was truly her life. When my little sister was born, her and my grandpa even decided to move to Oregon to be closer to us, and Meagan received many of the same experiences in her own way. We certainly couldn't have asked for much more.<br />
<br />
I would be lying if I said that it hasn't been hard to watch such a strong woman struggle with her disease. The older and more conscious of the situation I got, the faster it began to take its hold over her, but she never gave up on fighting. Never. In the end she was surrounded by so much love, physically surrounded by people who loved and cared for her unconditionally, and I am so happy that I was able to be a part of that and had a chance to say goodbye. I selfishly wish that I could have had more time with her, that she could be at my wedding, and see Meagan graduate from college, but it was definitely her time to move on, and no one can fault her for that. She had an incredible life.<br />
<br />
When I was little I was fascinated by her grandfather clock, so much so that I laid "claim" to it when I was around three, asking if I could have it some day. It now sits in my living room, ticking away. A living, working daily reminder of her, and I am extremely grateful to have it and carry it with me for the rest of my life.<br />
<br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><i>Below is a series of photos of my Grandmother's life. </i></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">(click on any images to view them slightly larger)</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><i><br /></i></span>
There are definitely some gaps in the years, and the photo quality is all over the place, but these are what I have to work with at the moment. I will put up more if I am able to find them.<br />
<br />
I think the collection of black and white pictures from her early years are particularly amazing. I wish I could go back in time and get to know her then (without the Back to the Future consequences of course). She was so dainty and adorable!<br />

<span style="text-align: center;">Me, Meagan, and Pat went to visit her in the spring of 2013 and spent the afternoon hearing stories of her childhood and reflecting on ours with her. It was a wonderful experience, and I was thankful that she was having a good day so that she was able to really interact with us. Before we left we decided to take a few photos and even got my grandma to smile. She has always shied away from the camera, and seldom really smiles for pictures, so we felt really lucky.</span></div>

I am glad so many people took the time to write something about her. I will wrap this post up with a few of them that mean a lot to me. </i></span><br />

<span style="background-color: white; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; font-size: 12px; line-height: 15.8079996109009px;"><b>Grandpa:</b> How do you pay tribute to a sweet, gentle and loving wife and mother? She always put her kids, grand kids and me first We were always number one. She would have laid down her life for any of us. She carried all of us in her heart. She put up a valiant fight against her Parkinsons and never gave up. We spent 58yrs together. I am thankful in her final days I was able to be her mate again and not a care giver. I will cary her in my memory for the rest of my days.</span><br />

I charish every moment spent with you. Especially how loving you were to me and Jenn. I will never forget going through your jewelry stand and trying on all your necklaces. It was like I had found a hidden treasure chest! Thank you for always being there for me and going against the rule that you can't have dessert before dinner. Vanilla ice cream with lots of chocolate sauce of course. There are so many amazing memories I will always hold on to. I love you so much :)</span><br />

<br />
Last week was an awesome one! On Tuesday me and Pat went to look at yet another potential wedding venue... and guess what? We finally found a new one! (More on that in another post). Other than that, during the week I worked on out costumes, and enjoyed some crisp fall weather.<br />
<br />
Friday night Pat decided to decorate the house, grab some candy, and hand it out to trick-or-treaters again, and then we wandered through the neighborhood a little bit to check out other people's set ups before watching some Halloween favorites.<br />
<br />
On Saturday we slept in, packed our stuff, and then headed to Portland to surprise our friends at their party. After our foggy/rainy drive we met up with Brad, Alia, and their baby girl Henley for some dinner at Che, and then checked in to our hotel to get ready. The party itself felt like college again, and I loved surprising everyone! I have a lot more pictures which I will throw up here tomorrow.<br />
<br />
Sunday morning we headed to Alberta to grab breakfast at Pine State Biscuits with Tony and Alex before making a quick stop at the Nike Employee store, and then heading back over the pass for home. Another super short trip (which seems like all we have time for these days), but it was well worth it.<br />

Since we have party plans tomorrow night, me and Pat decided to decorate the house a little, grab some candy, and hand it out to trick-or-treaters again this year. There were a ton of them, and just like last year we ran out of candy in an hour. Now time for dinner, The Addams Family, The Great Pumpkin Charlie Brown, and for us to finish our costumes. I will put up more pictures from tonight on my next My Week post.<br />

<br />
During the week it was work, work, work, and I got started on our Halloween costumes. Tony and Megan came and visited us over the weekend, and we pumpkin patched on a super windy day, went to Wild Ride and Silver Moon, had some delicious meals, and watched a little Hocus Pocus... it was pretty damn good.<br />
