This is real life.

It is official. We are moving to Tucson, Arizona.

JB flew down there and interviewed with a company on Monday and they offered him a job!


We are heading down there in two weeks.
Now we just have to figure out where to live...



JB likes to tease me about my initial reaction to us moving:
"THIS IS BIG! THIS IS REAL LIFE!"
Because before this life was fake, or something like that.




(photo via tucson daily photo blog. I found it when I was trying to decide if I wanted to live there, and the images on it were much more appealing then when you google image search "Tucson.")


ps did I mention how long it took me to remember how to spell Tucson?

Quickutz

I have recently started freelance designing for the Quickutz Silhouette. The silhouette is a digital craft cutter-- it cuts shapes out of paper from your computer. And I design those shapes. It's been a blast. Basically, I doodle, then scan it in and trace it out. Who ever thought I would get paid for doodling?

Here are some of my favorite designs that I have done.

Finally!

A reality show I am excited to watch!



The show premiers in 2010.

I wonder how many average americans will tune in to watch drama over typefaces, picas, color pallets, layer masks, layout and logos? I sure can't wait!

roadtrip!

Tomorrow morning JB and I are headed out on a road trip.
Some of our stops include:

Lake Tahoe



Disneyland, the happiest place on earth (or so we shall see). I have NEVER been before, so I talked JB into going on my 22nd birthday. I'm pretty stoked. When I ask JB if he is excited, he says, "Well, I'm excited for you!" haha.

I love this image i found here of a vintage disneyland shirt.



And, our final, most exciting stop is definitely going to be in Bakersfield to see these little stinkers:



Please! 5 o'clock get here faster!!

Up

I LOVE this movie.



We have seen it twice and I am not ashamed to admit that I cried 5 times.

"Dear Google,

What do you do when you get bit by a stray dog?"

Yes, JB was riding his bike past Adam's Park this last week, when a stray dog ran up and bit his calf. I waited to post this until I was sure he didn't get rabies, because he wouldn't go to the doctor (even though google said to). He called animal control and reported the dog, google told us to do that too.



JSYK, he is all better now-- no infection or anything. No need to worry.

USU Backlit Signs

When I was first hired at USU, my boss told me that my first project would be these gigantic backlit signs in our student center. Two years later, after the project got put off over and over, they finally got installed today!
