July 20th

Well, it's been awhile and what can I say but I'm tired! Ha ha. We've been sprucing up the house spreading mulch and creating our cabana. We finally made it out to the zoo this weekend and it was fun. Of course the huge dinner bash that was looming around the corner made the trip a bit exhausting. We tried to cram to much into the day and today we are all a bit sluggish. Oh well, that's life! I've included a few pictures from the last few uneventful weeks.

Fourth of July?

I can not believe it is the 4th of July already! The summer is flying by. We've been spending our days enjoying the extreme heat here in PDX. We've gone to the parks, made arts and crafts, and have walked around the neighborhood a lot! Brandon and I aren't what you'd call fireworks enthusiasts, so we spent our holiday picking berries! Random-- we know. It was really hot in the fields of Sauvies Island, but despite that, it was also kind of fun. Convincing Aubrey not to eat every berry proved to be the hard part. We got to pull Aubrey around in a wagon and we saw a pig that was probably 500 lbs. I'm not kidding, it could have fed a small country. It was a nice intimate family day. Hopefully tomorrow proves to be just as enjoyable!
