Memorial day and Job Interview!

Over Memorial Day weekend, Nathan and I headed down to St. George for a job interview. Nathan received a phone call the previous thursday/friday asking him if he was available for an interview on tuesday. The interview went well and apparently it is between Nathan and another engineer. We are supposed to hear from the company this week as to whether or not they wish to hire Nathan. Nathan is extremely excited as to the possibility of living in St. George, he prefers that weather to Logan temperatures. Wonder why?! I am getting more excited about the possibility to be living down south in a bigger city, (especially since there is a Target, In-and-Out, Spoon Me and Tai Pan Trading located in St. George, all of which are NOT located in Logan!). We are really crossing our fingers for this opportunity for Nathan to grow and gain experience as an engineer. We will keep you all posted! 

During the first part of Memorial Day we had the chance to visit family and place flowers on loved ones graves. As you can image this was an emotional holiday, especially with Mother's Day a few weeks ago. 

Fun in Tacoma, Washington

Mini Baja competition in Portland, Oregon!

The baja going up the "hill climb" event! This was a nasty course, only a handful of the teams made it up, USU was one of them!
The famous rear suspension! No other team had anything like it! everyone was taking pictures of it!!!

We've GRADUATED!!

On May 2nd, 2009 Nathan and I graduated from Utah State University. Even in the rain it was a delightful day and we are very grateful to those who braved the pouring rain to share this moment with us! 

Graduation!

Nathan and I are very excited about our upcoming graduation from Utah State University on May 2nd. It should be a very fun day and we are excited to spend it with whom ever wishes to join! Nathan is still continuing the job hunt, its hard because companies just aren't hiring and no one is retiring! We are planing on going up to Washington and Oregon the week after graduation for Nathan's mini baja tournament. He is still hoping that they can get their baja ready, they've hit some glitches. I am looking into working at the University's art museum this summer, I really hope I get the position! All else fails Nathan and I will head to grad school. Nathan is thinking he might be interested in getting his MBA, and I am considering a masters in Art History. Thats about all thats going on! This week is our last week of classes, ever! (unless we go to grad school)

Finals are next week, cross your fingers, there's going to be a lot of late nights! 

Nathan and I had a wonderful time visiting Matt and Lori in Illonois. We wished we could have stayed a longer! Lori took us on a drive around a wonderful little park near their house and when Nathan and I saw this covered bridge we had to go check it out. Nathan feel in love with them on his mission so we decided to have Lori take a snapshot of us by one. It was the only one we saw on the trip and it was a special treat!

Sick of being sick

Just wanted to quickly blog whats new- Nathan caught a cold about a week or so ago and is still feeling under the weather. I don't often see him sick (because it never happens!) so I've tried to be a good little wifey and take care of him. He seems to be improving slowly, he still has a brutal cough which leads to little coughing attacks. I know tis the season for influenza, its at a peak right now, so we think that's what it is. Hopefully he gets better quickly. This has been the first time since I've known him to even take cough drops, so you can tell he's REALLY not feeling well. So far I've been lucky and haven't caught it (yet.....)
