Hey everyone, I'm back from my two trips to Holland and Canada! Whew. I came back from Holland last Wednesday after spending 10 days with family, and had a WONDERFUL time. Some of the family I had not seen in 6 years, so it was GREAT to catch up with everyone and see the wonderful sights and sounds of Holland. I also did a day trip to the German island of Borkum and also to the wonderful city of Antwerp Belgium.

Austin and I left on Friday to head up to Calgary for 4 days. A good friend of mine was getting married. We stayed with a close friend of mine for the weekend, and they were wonderful hosts and it was so nice to spend some time with her and her husband. We went to Ikea and I drooled over all of the fun things I could not bring back. Why can't Denver NOT have an Ikea for petes sake! We got back yesterday, and I went to bed pretty early. I managed to catch a cold during my second half of the trip to Holland, and I am finally starting to feel a bit better.
Other noteworthy news...I had an interview last Thursday with a company. I didn't feel it went particularly well, especially since I was jet lagged, and was feeling pretty crummy due to my cold. I received a call from them yesterday and they offered me the job, but for a salary that was much less than what they initially indicated the position would be. In addition, the position would be based in the Denver Tech Center for the next 3 to 4 months and would require a commute down there, which for me would entail about an hour in the car each way (about 40 miles) and I just wasn't interested in doing that. So I ended up declining the offer. I have started the job search now and hope that I can secure something soon.
In other news, the wood for our house has been delivered, and if the snow stops in the next few days (it is snowing today!!!) I am certain they will begin framing the first and second floors. How exciting.
Hope everyone is having a good week!
