<p>I'm thinking of joining in on this fun project. You mail one hand written letter a week for a year. I'm a lover of old fashion pen and paper so this caught my attention!</p>
<p>Anyone interested in a lovely hand written letter from yours truly? </p>

These random tastes of spring are just torture for me. But since winter is still around we decided to at least have some fun with it. A couple of weekends ago we went with some of jakes friends snowmobiling up American fork canyon. It was insane! There is a reason we were the only ones up there...we were blazing the trail in five feet of pure powder. If you stepped off of the snow mobile you risked sinking up to your arm pits in snow, I'm not even joking...insane right?! But we had a blast, even if we spent 90% of the time digging our machines out!!</p>

We are celebrating our 1 year anniversary on Sunday. How will the Hamblins celebrate you ask? DISNEYLAND! A much needed vacation for both of us, and a break from this freezing weather.</div><div><br /></div><div>*Jake and I have both been really busy with work. Not much free time, and when we do have some time we spend it together relaxing. Apologies go out to all of my friends who I feel like I've abandoned! Please forgive me and lets hang out :) <span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-small;"><----- seriously.</span></div><div><br /></div><div>*Remember that sweet kitten posted below.... She is a <b>HOLY TERROR</b>! I could never imagine that such a little thing could cause so much chaos. Although, when she's not making me want to pull my hair out, she is pretty cuddly which I love. Molly can't get enough of her. The two of them are seriously best friends. Rue (the cat) must be touching Molly anytime they are sleeping, they have to eat at the same time, and I have even see them playing tug of war....</div><div><br /></div><div>*We plan on staying in our <span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;">cozy</span> little shack another year. I miss Salt Lake though :( Next year we will probably look into buying a house, and hopefully I can talk Jake into moving further north. </div><div><br /></div><div>(The cat is literally running across the key board every 5 seconds so this will have to do for now!)</div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div>Jake and Ashlee Hamblinhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13379444520409790116noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2022353562701160768.post-56842715570620842102010-10-02T10:05:00.000-07:002010-10-02T10:13:06.186-07:00Utah Lake<div><br />Since the weather has been AMAZING we went out with some of the <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0">Hamblins</span> to Utah Lake last weekend.

To make it through with out totaling the boat we have everyone sit along the edge of the boat with their feet out and we basically "walk" the boat as far back as we can go. It opens up to a small pool where we tie up the boats and swim the rest of the way. There are some parts that are so narrow you can barely fit through. Next time we go I'm investing in a waterproof camera so I can get some shots of it.

When we left California we decided to drive all night. Well, I drove...and Jake slept ;) but we made it home around 10 am. I had a message from my sister in law to call a good friend of the Hamblins because he needed some help in the office. I gave him a call when I got home and started the job AN HOUR later! It was exhausting and I was pretty much sleep walking through out the day. But worth it, I am in love with my new job. Its a breathe of fresh air to actually enjoy going to work. I feel really lucky. And on top of staying super busy there I am still working nights at Wingers. My poor husband, dog, and house have all been neglected this last little while but luckily we are off to Lake Powell in the morning for some much needed R&R! I seriously can't wait....I look forward to this trip all year. It could possibly be the best week out of the year...hands down. <div><br /></div><div>See you when we get back!!</div>Jake and Ashlee Hamblinhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13379444520409790116noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2022353562701160768.post-65281507216966210112010-06-08T18:49:00.000-07:002010-06-08T19:00:30.684-07:00Apologies....<div><br />I'm not sure if anyone reads this anymore since I NEVER blog....I'm horrible at it. So I'm sorry if you do!! Here's a little update of the Hamblins....<div><br /></div><div>We recently got home from a trip to California. It was amazing. We started off the trip in Monterey at the Hamblin beach house for a family reunion. It was fun for me to get to know a bunch of the Hamblins that I've never met before. We spent time at the Monterey Bay aquarium, the Warf, taking some cool hikes, and of course the beach! My camera was MIA for half the trip so I don't have any pictures of Monterey. I'm bummed. My most favorite part of Monterey was the awesome beach bonfire we had in Carmel. I love a good fire and smores!!!</div><div><br /></div><div>The rest of the family headed home after a couple of days and me and Jake decided to head up to San Francisco. I had never been before and seriously could not wait!! We did and saw so many things so I won't bore you with details...but here are some pictures!</div></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh-gmttYN21bzeAkxX3JkcSrIxpHREG_0NPfr67Gz6qLKOdSMsCOQirS0fp5xAA4_NwiGzkvKktHpLadOmcGMjhFIfqsyidiOm5qdcvm585MfvvLBnCMH4fLWSkCGZ_hUkD3icNF3ztM-hr/s1600/woodskiss.jpg"><img style="display:block;
