So there are 8 of us up here in Portland selling food storage, and we have nights off so what do we do with all that time? We play games!!! This isn't the whole group. We play all different games from "The Great Dalmooty" (I have no idea how to spell that. It is also known as scum) to "Cranium". It is really allot of fun. We always end up staying way to late so we can play just one more round!

This is Jeff and Brenda. They are from LA and Washington. But will be going to BYU next semester. We have quickly become friends. They have the same couch's as we do if you didn't notice and basically everything else. Just allot nicer TV :) They were out one day and drove by a huge garage sell. So they stopped to check it out and hit the jack pot! They got this game of "Life" really cheap, also some movies. The best part is what they got us though.

They got us this wonderful microwave! For only 5 dollars!!!! Thank you so much you guys its so great not to wait for 20 min to warm up leftovers! We only brought up one car so we didn't have much room for big things. We also didn't really even have a microwave we just used the Stokers. Now we have one! YAY!!!

Portland Japanese Garden

This is the view from up on the hill where the Japanese Garden is located!

The Flat Garden.
We were taking cool pics like this, then we looked up and saw all these people looking at us and decided it probably was not such a good idea. People might have gotten the wrong idea maybe thinking we were making fun of it or something!

Heavenly Falls.
We got some good ideas about what we are going to put in our yard eventually when we get one! its going to be sweet and very calming and tranquil.

We thought this was going to be a way good pic but my eyes are closed:)

Natural Garden.
We started with the tour but that lasted about 3 min due to Sams LARGE attention span.. We then ventured off on our own.

Portland Temple!

We got the great opportunity to go to the Portland Temple.









It is such a gorgeous temple and in such a perfect place. We got to walk around the grounds for awhile and it was so relaxing and calm.












Sam is so handsome I love to take
pictures of him and he makes fun
of me for it!

We had a crazy storm on Thursday. This was just a picture from our window, but there was tons of wind and rain.

All the traffic lights were out by our house. It took forever for me to get home! It was fun to watch though.

This is our love fern.

My mom kept telling me to get a plant to make us happy and healthy. So we went to Walmart and put together this amazing plant from scratch that symbolizes our eternal, blossoming love for each other. We will keep it alive just like our love for each other!

Home Sweet Home

Hey everyone! Welcome to our lovely home in Gorgeous Oregon! We love it here, everything is so pretty, the people are very nice, and we have a fun adventure every day. The economy here isn't the greatest, so sales are a little down, but we're still making it just fine all the same. Jami started her job at SuperCuts and seems to be enjoying it.

Our lovely kitchen, isn't it adorable?

This is Jami and her favorite room. Isn't she adorable??

Just outside of our apartment. It's so green and gorgeous here!

Our living room the first night. We didn't have any furniture, we slept on the floor. And Sam is dead sexy.

Just trying to figure this out!
