Great Food...

Our wedding anniverary was this week. We have been married for two years. My mom and papa John (what we call my mom's awesome husband) took Damon and I to the Tippecanoe Place for dinner. Damon had heard that one of their specials was all you could eat prime rib. It was really good. I tried to post a picture of the place here, but here is the web address: www.tippe.com

This will tell you the history of the house and other bits of information. http://www.monon.monon.org/sobend/tippecanoe.html there is another link that you could find information.

We are getting a new bed at the end of the week...it has been fun buying new linens. I wish that Ih ad lots of money to buy sheets with a high thread count. They are like sleeping on silk. I like to spend the night at my mom's house because she has WONDERFUL linens.

We have had wonderful weather today. It was a perfect day in my mind. I love seeing all of the flowers starting to pop out of the ground...I need to get out to my grandm's house to see all of her lovely daffodils and tulips while they are still nice. YOu know that Spring is here because both of my grandmas will be returning home soon. I love having them here...I can learn so much from them.

Just waiting for Damon to get home...he works so many hours. He is my hero...good thing I married someone with such a good work ethic! Enjoy!

*Remember to take time each day to enjoy the simple pleasures*

Washington State Visit

I had written this long explanation of the pics that I was going to put in this post...but I lost it. I am learning all these new things. Here are some pics from our visit to the Portland Zoo and meeting his brother Glade Hatch on the side of the road. I am slowly meeting more memebers of Damon's family. ENJOY! I also got to meet Damon's Granny on the Hatch side of the family. We forgot to take our camera...so we don't have any pictures with her...next time.

This is who we are...

Good Afternoon,

I would like to take some time to introduce our small family. We are Damon and Kirsten Hatch. We have been married for two years, and sealed for one. We were sealed in the Navuoo Temple.

Damon~

34 years old, he has just gotten a promotion at work. He is now an Assistant Manager at Rent-A Center. He is so good at what he does. His goal is to move up and someday have a store of his own. He is from Vancuuver, Washington. Damon has 3 adorable girls from a previous marriage. We do not get to see them, or talk to them...this is a sore spot in our lives.

Kirsten~

32 years old. I have gone back to school to finish up my degree in Elementary Education. This has been a VERY long process. On the days that I don't go to school, I work as a substitue teacher in the school corporation that I worked in before I went back to school. I am trying very hard to be a better homemaker and a better wife to my husband.

We live in Indiana...there are times when we would love to live somewhere else...but then we would have to deal with the questions from my family as to why...it is a long story. Not one that I want to get into here.

Brand New

Hello! I am not really sure how this is to work? I am trying...
