Doug's Birthday Weekend

We had a great weekend celebrating Doug's last year in his 20's. Friday night found us at Saint Roque to eat and watch some live music.

DJ and Jaci flew in from Seattle for the weekend of fun!

Saturday was the 4th annual Quadbooza. This year featured lovely Pepto-Bismol pink shirts, which made it easy to spot everyone! It was perfect weather for beach cruisers and fun...


Sunday we headed up to the Getty for an Easter picnic. The weather was awesome, and it was a beautiful day up there!

The Budos Band @ The Getty Summer Concert Series

Last night we went to see The Budos Band, who were performing at The Getty Summer Concert Series. Great friends, beautiful setting, awesome music.

This is what Paige does when you want to take her picture.

These kids were so adorable eating their ice cream!

Meeting Parker

I had a wonderful time visiting my friends Courtney and Ryan (aka Budge) and their adorable baby boy Parker. Parker is now close to six weeks, and he is just the cutest thing ever! We had a great time and took lots of adorable pictures of him...

Washington Week

Since Doug had last week off from work (and I am unemployed) we took advantage of the free time and headed up to Washington for a week of fun! We spent the first few days out at the Perry family cabin at Lake Wenatchee...

A beautiful sunset behind the glacier.
The next morning, we awoke to a perfectly glassy lake and a beautiful sunrise.
Hiking up "Dirty Face". (Confession: the altitude got to me and I didn't make it to the top! A big thanks to Chris for heading down the mountain with me :).

Doug and Wayne at the top of Dirty Face, overlooking the lake.
The funniest part about the cabin is that the Perry family has had it since the boys were young, and haven't been back there in a looong time. We made some pretty funny discoveries that were straight out of the 80's, including the "skurfer," on of the first wake boards created. Awesome.

We headed back to Seattle for the remainder of the week. And of course, we had to hit up some Mariners games.
Yeah Diamond Club!

Of course, Doug found time to ride a dirtbike during the week! His friend DJ has a track in his backyard.

Jaci and I hung out in the Rhino while the boys rode.

4th of July! After BBQing at the house, we took the boat out to Lake Union for the fireworks show.
