Reasons to Celebrate!!!!


Lots of exciting thing have happened this last month!! Yes, as usual I'm extremely slow at blogging them. 1st of all Ryan was excepted to Utah States School Psychology Program. So we are moving back to Logan. 2nd I (Jana) Passed my national registration examination so I as officially a Registered Dietitian. 3rd Ryan and my families came and visited us separately over the last two weeks and we had a tons of fun with both families. This pic is Ryan and Jana in Saint Ann's area of Seattle.



This pic was taken by the Spokane river with Ryan, myself and Ryan parents Lynn and Judy Greene.










This fun pic was taken at River Front park after I convinced Ryan that is was a disabled seagull with one leg. Quickly after the pic the bird put his second leg down and then started mocking Ryan. It was super funny! but maybe you just had to be there.











This wagon is the NUMBER ONE REASON my NEPHEWS need to come and visit me in Spokane!!!! Especially since I'm wont be here much longer.


Seattle was awesome! Ryan and I went there last week with my mom, dad and sister Jen. It was just beautiful and and ton of fun! Enjoy the pics






This is Ryan and me at Pikes Market holding an all to beautiful grapefruit. I could move to Seattle just for this market. I can't imagine how great it would be to go and by all those fresh fruits, vegetables, fish and flowers whenever I pleased . Truly Heavenly



This is pic of my mom, sister Jen, my dad and me at the city over look in Queen Ann's. We stopped here After we got done looking at all of the old homes that are truly incredible.



These are some fun pics of Ryan enjoying the view and me somewhere in outer space!

Go Away Winter!




We are so done with Winter already! What we wouldn't give for nice 80 degree weather, just like the picture to the right, taken from our balcony while vacationing in Mexico.
Lately we have felt the running in place-like effects of waiting on Universities to get back to us about interviews. Thursday morning felt a little different than the previous 60 or so. As I was leaving I told Jana that I had a good feeling about today, and that I was going to receive the call later on that day some time. 3 Hours later while at work, my phone started ringing and it was a 435-797 number...Needless to say it was the call that we had been waiting for. Utah State wanted to set up a phone interview with me set for March 17th!
Jana is studying hard for her "RD" exam, but is going crazy from not having a job. Once we actually know where we are going she will be able to start searching for dietitian jobs in that area. Good news though, Holy Family Hospital (the one Jana did her internship at) is currently talking about adding another part time position at the hospital. Which means that Jana could be working there very soon. Other than that we are just trying to fight the cabin fever that is slowly coming upon us... and look forward to the Greene's visit during the first week of April.

Winter Rock Climbing



After December's Hardcore storm, January and February have been relatively mild. In light of such favorable conditions, Jordan Frakes and I had a great thought... That we were not going to wait for Spring to start climbing again! Our climbing spot over in Post Falls, ID is still snowed in, but the rock is cold but dry. Plus there is nobody around...for obvious reasons... :)
