Sailing

My mom and Norm were generous enough to take us out for an evening on their sailboat. Brooksie came with us too and we had a great time! Thanks again mom and Norm!

Paul really enjoyed helping pull the lines (I think that's what you call it).

Jack Russel Trials

We rode the motorcycle down to Auburn to watch Brooksie's dogs compete in the Jack Russel Trials on Saturday. It was a beautiful ride and the dogs did great!


This is Kaper running hurdles. She's the one with the blue collar.


And here she is in red.


Paul is making use of the dog pen for the shade.

Pug Sitting!

We get to take care of two pugs for the weekend and I'm in heaven! Waking up to coffee made by Paul and pugs ready to play is a great Saturday morning.

A Beautiful Wedding

By the end of the ceremony, my cheeks hurt because I was smiling so much! It was a beautiful setting, a stunning bride, an emotional ceremony, and such a happy evening!

I got all of the bridesmaids in a picture!



What do you do when the bride has to use the bathroom? The bridesmaids hold up the dress!



My darling husband!

4th of July

We have now made Gasworks Park an annual event! We took the bus down to the waterfront, hung out all day in the sunshine, and then watched the spectacular fireworks show from a blanket on the grass.

Hiking

We took a really fun hike just outside of North Bend. We saw a waterfall, Savage got to swim, and we got a work-out.

We made it to the waterfall!

Practicing the art of hacking

We have recently discovered that I have no hacky sacking abilities. So we took a bike ride to Greenlake to practice in the wide open grass. Here's Paul showing off his skills!
