Dog-gone Solitaire!

Doug is not the only one in the house that likes computer solitaire!

"Barbarian" Village

We hid away for a couple of days with the girls in the quaint town of Leavenworth, nestled in the foothills of the Cascade Mountains. Very German. . .very Bavarian. . .pulling into town, Madison asked "What's a Barbarian Village?"

We enjoyed our relaxed time by the pool, read books and magazines, watched the Olympics every night and ate the BEST scones!

The view from our unit

Our unit is the top of the middle building. So nice. . .

Baby Booty. . ..

Rachel's new baby girl is due the end of October.

Her baby "sprinkling" was last Sunday. . .

The bag wasn't a surprise. . . but the color was!
We're glad you liked it, Rach!

Shoozzz. . . .

I was looking for a particular photo in my e-files and came across this one. . which I love! While food shopping at Fred Meyer, the girls and I took Avery on a detour through the shoe department. Can you just see "shooz" on her lips as we browsed up and down the aisles. What a field trip!

Candy Man

Grampa Moe is known to many as the "Candy Man" because he's always sharing his assorted candies. Sunday was his 80th birthday so we decided to give him the ultimate sweet tribute.

To Our August Babies. . . .

Keeping with the spirit of the Olympics ~
Happy Birthday to Moe, Dan, Madison, & Dana!
