Work Trips

A quick trip to Huntington Beach and a not-so quick trip to Chicago! So incredibly grateful that we have Jen and Grammy Jill to help us out with KP while I'm traveling!

Feeling the Love

I was thrilled that my birthday fell during our Chelan week. There is no better way to celebrate a birthday than on the lake in Chelan! Boat time, Lakeview drive-in, pool, and Sunset Bar and Grill pizza for dinner made for an amazing bday!

I got to celebrate in Chelan with the Mosers and then again on Saturday with Mom and Dad and the Mosers. Many, many thanks to everyone for making my birthday so special!!

Pool fun - KP 'walking' into the pool!

More Fun!

Tuesday brought fishing and pool fun. Wednesday, my birthday - wahoo! And then sadly, we said good-bye to Chelan on Thursday.

More Pictures!

Ryan and I had to both work Monday - boo. Many thanks to the Mosers for taking KP and making it such a fun day for her!

The Best Summer Tradition

My favorite summer activity...LAKE CHELAN!!! Yet another trip filled with fun, family, and great memories in the books. This time we were excited that Lily joined us for the weekend.

SO many pictures so we'll start with the weekend first!

Summer Time Screams Baseball

A couple of weekends ago we hit Safeco field for a Mariner's game with Grammy Jill, Pape Dirt, and the Mosers. It was toasty warm, sunny, and beautiful...the perfect summer day for a baseball game. Great seats in the Terrace Club, lots of food and fun. Only problem...the Ms lost. Oh well, next time!

Chillin with Auntie Jen and Emily

The last week of June, KP was thrilled to get a sleepover with the Mosers followed by a day of fun in the sun! Thanks Auntie Jen and Emily!

It's Definitely Summer

I have such a love for summer! I sure wish I was a kid again and had the entire summer off to play and have fun. But since I can't, I'm trying to make sure that Kaitlyn gets to experience that. Thus, I took a day off work and took Kaitlyn and Lily to Coulon Park, Red Robin, and then they picked Family Fun Center.

The best part was that these girls were my personal djs for the entire time we were in the car. They each took turns picking songs and playing it via Bluetooth. They came up with some great to play. SO.MUCH.FUN!!!

Kaitlyn doing her best to not get wet on a water ride - lol!

Emily Totally Rocked It!

So very proud of and impressed by Emily! She worked incredibly hard this year at school and it paid off. She recently received an award for Math and two Medallions; one for perseverance (keep calm and carry on) and one for citizenship (positive attitude). And if that isn't enough she ended the year with a 4.0 GPA! She's AMAZING!! This girl is going places!

Father's Day

Not sure how the heck we are in July already but I have a few posts still to get up from June. First one up...Dad's Day! A round of golf in the morning and watching the last round of the US Open on tv in the afternoon were Ryan's requests. Done and done!

And of course, can't forget the super cool book KP made for Ryan.
