that boy is goin places

I managed to snap one picture of Mr. Hansen yesterday in his new "internship attire." He was running around frantically printing off resumes, taking out the garbage, and getting all spiffed up. Lucky for me, I caught him on his way out the door. He is officially on a hunt for knowledge. He has scoured the town over for an internship opportunity and now we are just oh-so-patiently waiting for the phone to ring.
It may not be a big deal to some, but to us, this kind of stuff is memorable. Sometimes I get all emotional {we all do, k?} and have to remind Ty and myself how much we need to appreciate this life we're living.
Right at this moment.
As we went on a little neighborhood walk the other night, we discussed our plans for the future. What it will be like to be parents. To have careers. To be responsible for more than just each other. We also couldn't help but dream of the day when Tyboy will be large and in charge of some fancy schmansy company. Tell ya what, that boy has got some motivation pushing him from behind. 
...
But then, we realized that the day will come when we will miss this day. We will miss our sucky dishwasher and broken iPod and our vacuum that blows instead of sucks. And we will probably miss the sound of the blinker going off non-stop while riding in Ty's car. And I betcha we might even miss my junky laptop that clung to life just long enough to finish the semester. I just have a feeling that someday in the midst of all the children and jobs and houses and bills and chaos...we are gonna miss those cozy evenings curled up together watching an Idaho sunset. 
For now, I think we'll just stick to this beautiful life we're living. 
It's like they say,
Come what may...
and love it.
