New Beginnings for a New Year

Dallin started his REAL LIFE job on January 7th. He is a design engineer at Intel. And he is loving it.

Our two bedroom apartment here in Hillsboro is amazing. Mom Heath came down to help us move in and get settled. All of our stuff is pretty much put away... we just need to hang a few decorations and then it will really feel like home. (once that is done I will post a few pictures.)

Dallin took this picture on our first day here... he calls it "clock on the wall"

We are trying to get used to winter weather here. It's wet and rainy, no snow, but plenty of fog and frost. It's actually kind of nice to be able to go walk outside in just a jacket... but I must admit I miss the snow that accompanied living in Utah.

Dallin and I also made a goal to eat healthier and start exercising every day. We are training for a half marathon on Memorial day which is great motivation.

Dallin surprised me with a candlelit dinner. It was amazing.

We love it here and can't wait for all the excitement this year will bring.
