New adventure for the Grays!


So as many of you already know, we are going to be moving to Portland! We found out a couple of months ago that the company that Francisco works for, Garage Games, is relocating from Eugene to both Portland, OR and Las Vegas, NV. Thankfully his section of the company is going to Portland! At first it was a HUGE shock to the system, but as things have settled down a bit we have been looking at this as an awesome opportunity to try a new place to live and hey why not, right?
We have decided to try and rent our house out and then become renters ourselves in Portland! We are looking for places downtown and have found a couple of great options, do we go funky and modern or old and eclectic? Lots of choices! And yes if you are thinking it, we will have an area for guests to stay, it may be a pull out couch but if you need a place to crash to catch a plane or are going to a concert, or you just want to go shopping in downtown with me, guests are welcome!
So it's another thing to add to our first year of marriage that will ultimately allow us to grow in so many ways, and I am looking forward to stepping into a new adventure with my husband!
Wish us luck!

Peace always,
Heather

Labor Day Weekend



So we had a very busy Labor Day weekend, traveling yet again! Francisco headed to Seattle for PAX, a gaming convention that he has always wanted to attend and got the opportunity to go with the company he works for! He had a blast and came home with lots of swag (t-shirts and what nots). I headed to the Portland area to visit my dad. We explored Portland and did lots philosophizing about the way the world should be! Josh, Amber and Skittles came for the weekend also, it was fun catching up with everyone! On Labor Day Monday Francisco and I had dinner with his sister Jennifer! I showed Acasha how to make one of her uncles favorite dishes, I love spending time with her like that! I also got to get in some really good snuggle time with Little Joe! Over all it was a wonderful weekend and we are glad to be home together again! Sophie would like us to not leave for a very long time, she hasn't let us forget that we have not been home! In the coming weeks I am looking forward to going to a baseball game up in Seattle which should be fun! Francisco has decided to stay home and relax, too much traveling going on for him right now, Sophie is happy about that! Lots of birthdays are coming up including my own, so looking forward to doing a lot of celebrating! Peace, Heather
