Here's the Latest

Hey everyone! I haven't written anything in almost two weeks now so I figured it was time to fill you in on some of the things that have been going on here lately.

A couple days after our last post, I took the Graduate Record Examination. It is the equivalent of the SAT for graduate school. I haven't received all of my scores yet but I know I scored ok on the verbal (analogies, antonyms, sentence completion, and reading comprehension), and an almost perfect score on the math portion! WHEW! It was such a relief to finish the exam and see some score that I'm happy with. I still have a few bits and pieces to put together for my grad school applications but they should all be complete by Thanksgiving break.

Heather is getting very excited for the holidays! Getting our Christmas lists together has really gotten her excited to come home to Walla Walla and see everyone. She's already made a few pumpkin pies! Look out guys...she can bake!

Mom and Dad were planning on coming up to Bellingaham this weekend to visit and go to a concert featuring the internationall acclaimed accapella group The Acoustix. Unfortunately, they both ended up with a pretty nasty stint of the flu so they had to stay home. Heather and I went to the concert last night and were blown away! Here's a youtube video of them signing. There are several others online. Of course this doesn't do them justice but hopefully you can see what they are like.

Our First Blog Post!

Hey everyone! Lately I have found myself frequenting my sister's blogs to see what is going on in their exciting lives. Today Cami suggested that I start one so everyone else can be equally up to date on the happenings in Heather's and my life. So, now we have our own Davis family blog! We're both so excited to have a blog and a new way for friends and family to keep current on what is happening in our newly married lives.
So, here are a few pictures of what we've been up to recently.

Here are the first pictures we hung in the new apartment

We made our first batch of Hillbilly Specials for Tim's Birthday


Today we made a trip to a local pumpkin patch and picked out our first pumpkins! It was so much more fun to do it this way than to grab the ones at the grocery store! It seems like we are constantly discovering something new and exciting in Bellingham.

"Hey Tim, that pumpkin kinda looks like you!"
"WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT?!?!?"

The final products! The mean one reminds me of the evil emporer Zurg from Toy Story.

So far our first blogging experience has been a little rough. I'm sure we will only get better with practice and we'll try our best to keep it current. Thanks Cami for suggesting we get one started! Here we go!
