Summer Fun

We’ve had a busy and fun summer!  Can’t believe it’s already the official end with this being Labor Day weekend. 

LA Trip – Lisa & John’s wedding - We had so much fun meeting up with all of our friends in LA.  Each of these trips remind me how lucky we are to have friends that are basically family.  We know we can rely upon each other.  Connor’s highlight was the end of the evening.  John took the time to show his plane to Connor and even let him climb in the cockpit!  Connor was grinning ear to ear (and John was pretty smiley too Smile).

Lisa – you’ve got a prize.  I wish you both so many happy years together.  Loved being able to celebrate your day together!

We got to spend our anniversary in the California sun enjoying the early evening at Hermosa Beach and returned to the same park where we had pictures with Connor over the same weekend 2 year prior.  Then we got to enjoy our anniversary dinner with Tara & Michael at their favorite little mexican restaurant.  Thanks guys!

Our trip concluded with a little unplanned excitement when our non-stop flight had a 6+ hour layover in Boise. Our flight had some engine trouble but luckily everything worked out fine and we arrived home safe and sound, just a little later than planned.  At least one of us had a great time with the experience.

We got to see lots of friends as we met up with Liss and Matt for a fun evening at a wine club event, we got to enjoy an evening with Lynz & Bob & Mike Byer (randomly in town on his way through to Alaska on a family cruise) and got to see Lynz  & Bob’s new house (which is so charming – I LOVE all of the Craftsman detail!).  We had f=lots of fun hanging out with Dan’s family.

LAKE Time - We’ve gotten to spend some great weekends at the lake just relaxing. A little fishing, a lot of relaxing! Neither phone nor internet work really well so it’s a great way to unplug!
