So long-time-no-update!! Sorry folks. I found out I can't get financial aid over the summer and can't just quit my program so I've been working even more than before. If you didn't think that was possible, it sadly is... lol. Just kidding, we're good! We had an amazing time in Mexico, and needed a vacation like nobody's business! Colby and Courtney's wedding was beautiful. And we had fun every minute of it. And got to see each other seven days in a row!! :) Now, we're getting ready for their reception on the 4th of July. Last week I was in my good friend, Brandy's wedding. That was great too. It's wedding season, baby!
We can't believe we're about to celebrate our 3 year anniversary. And on the plane ride home from Mexico we realized we'd been together for exactly ten years! And we're still head-over-heels for each other! :) Jason is currently learning all the ropes in hopes of a promotion at work. Last week he created all the new drinks for Hi-life's new menu, and they are amazing. I finished my last day of student teaching in Seattle last week, and will start student teaching 3rd grade at Dick Scobee in Auburn in the fall. That's right, we're finally planning on moving home. It won't be official until next Spring. But we're very excited to be closer to family and friends! We love you all, sorry we've been so busy lately! But hope to see you soon!! :)

Ankerfelt Update!!

Sorry, it's been a while. I feel like all I do is work and go to school... it'll all be worth it one day! ;) In the last couple months we've had a few changes. We moved into a house with a very good friend of mine. We now have a doggie named Parker (her dog) that we love to play with! Jason got a new job that he loves. He's an assistant manager of the Hi-Life in Ballard and enjoys it much more than he did at Chandlers. We're going to Mexico in 3 weeks so I'm sure I'll have some nice pictures from that! :)

SNOW DAYS!!

Everyone knows how much I love the holidays, but what I love even more than the holidays is SNOW DURING THE HOLIDAYS! It makes me feel like I'm in some sort of Christmas Movie! Anyways, we got our first snowfall on Wednesday night (12/17). Jason got called off work and we made dinner and had a relaxing evening at home. I couldn't make it to work on Thursday and Jason got called off again! I actually tried to go to Chopstix Thursday night and showed up to an empty bar with the lights off... THANKS GUYS... lol! And I did have to go to Eastside Staple for an hour on Friday to clean out my desk because it was my last day at a 9-5 office job I hate EVER!!! Anyways... Long-Story-Short, over the last week, Mr. Ankerfelt and I (the married couple who's conflicting schedules cause them to normally see each other about 3 times a week) have spent EVERY day together... it's like a second honeymoon... hahaha. That's a picture of us from the first snowfall on Friday. How rad are my Seahawks earmuffs? I was wearing them on Sunday... I think they're a good luck charm!!



We decided to brave the weather on Saturday to make it down to Auburn for Tim and Erika's Annual Ugly Christmas Sweater Party! After I went wedding dress shopping with Brandy and we had a lovely dinner with Jason's parents (Thank you Patty :) ), we headed over to Tim's to find there were only a brave few who had made the trip. Logan and Sheila get a pass as they had a beautiful baby girl this weekend and we can't wait to meet Aubrey Rae Sheutzle! :) Anyways, we had a super fun time with our friends in our ugly sweaters. If you can't see Jason's shirt I will fill you in- It says CHRISTMAS LIST- Then has a list of crossed out items SHOES, CLOTHES, MAKE-UP- The last remaining item says A CUTE BOY. Yes, Dave got his sweater on Ebay, Tim had his mother-in-law make his, and my husband got his out of the Junior Miss department at K-Mart. At about 11pm we decided to check outside and realized it had snowed about 3 inches in the last couple hours. Though Jason is holding a drink in his hand in that picture, it was the only one he had at the party and he didn't even finish it, in case you were worried about us... We made it back to Seattle, but it was a scary drive!


The next day we woke up to about 8 inches of snow! It's been so fun! Plus, as some of you know, I've been working like a crazy person the last year- full time job during the week, school every night for 4 hours, and Chopstix or Sport on the weekends... so believe me, being home for a week straight has been wonderful! Anyways, this is our snowman named Pierre... we built him in a park near our house. The other one didn't have a name, half his face and his leg fell off... he was having a bad day... we were having a fantastic day! We went home and Jason made home-made chicken noodle soup. I'm not sure how many people know that my husband is on his way to Top Chef, I swear! Anyways, I hope everyone has been enjoying being snowed in as much as we have!




Merry Almost Christmas Everybody!!

We wish you a Merry Christmas!!

Merry Christmas everyone!! If anyone knows me at all, they know how excited I get around this time of year! And I'm not going to let this silly economy get me down... even though it's trying very hard!! lol

First of all, every year it's a tradition in my family to go to the mountains and get a christmas tree! However, this year my dad decided it wasn't a good idea since he's building a garage and they're tearing part of his living room wall down!! Yes, in December! Don't get me started. By the way, anyone seen our back yard lately? That was supposed to be finished circa 1999... hahaha I love my daddy with all my heart. Anyhoo... Jason and I have been working like crazy so a mountain trip didn't work out this year. And a heartbroken Stacy grumpily trudged through the boring tree farm... lol Ok, it wasn't that bad. And Jason surprised me with a gingerbread house making kit when we got home. He's a keeper! :D It was also his idea for the melty snowman in the front yard which is my favorite part!

We hope to see everyone over the holidays! I'm sorry we've been so busy this year, but that shouldn't be an excuse. Just for a little update, I only have 3 days left at my job!! I start student teaching in a kindergarten class in January and I couldn't be more excited. We have a lot of things to be thankful for this year... including YOU!! Thanks for stopping by to check up on us and we hope to see you soon. Merry Christmas Everyone!!

OBAMA!!

Last night we witnessed history! It was amazing to be a part of. We watched the election coverage at a nearby restaurant/bar. When the results were announced everyone jumped up and down, hugged people they didn't know, and cried together in joy. Regardless of your political party, I hope you realize how much this country needs a change and that time has come. YES WE CAN!!!
We had so much fun on Halloween! Jason found out he didn't have to work at the last minute, so Wendy got her Burger King for the night!! :D We enjoy acting like little kids as much as possible, especially lately when we unfortunately feel more adult than ever!! Thank you Krysta and Nick for having us over!! We had a blast!

Ankerfelt Update...

Welp... it's fall!! And it feels like it. Its now dark every day when I leave for work and dark when I come home which is depressing!! But I started back to school and love it with all my heart!! I'm so excited to be a teacher I can't even tell you! I'm staying at Eastside Staple for now and taking classes at night so I'm a busy lady but it will be worth it!! So we've been trying to atleast have fun on the weekends. We joined a flag football team. We play Sundays at Seattle Center if anyone wants to come see me be really really bad at all sports... Jason is awesome... Stacy- not so much... haha. But I'm trying! I caught my first ball last week but then got my flags ripped off before the first down. Welp, at least I caught it. So we're not winning flag football, not winning fantasy football, not winning husky football... but the Seahawks finally won one!! Go Hawks!! Hope everyone had as awesome of a summer!!
