Boat Tours

Ryan got off work early last Friday and went down the Center for Wooden Boats and toured these two ships. One is the Hawaiian Chieftan and the Lady Washington. These are some of the photos of the 2 ships. The top two should be the Lady Washington and the bottom three are the Hawaiian Chieftan.

Family Visit

Here are more photos from the 4th of July weekend. Brandi and Mom in front of the Fremont Troll- do they look related or what?!

John learning how to blow the shell. I rock that thing, btw.

And Noah playing with fireworks. He looks like a little boy.

4th of July!

4th of July was sooo much fun! My mother, my cousin Brandi and her boyfriend John, oh and Wicket!, all came up for the weekend. On 4th of July, the one rainy day of the weekend, we had Monica and Noah over. We bought fireworks, which were misused and therefore pissed us women folk off, and had a bbq. The weather was so icky that we sat up in our bedroom and watched the fireworks from our window. I lit sparklers and the boys had roman candle fights. Really, alcohol, fireworks, and boys is a bad combination. But all that being said, it really was super fun!

Glee!

We just started watching Glee this last weekend. We've had countless people telling us to watch it, that we would love it, but obviously we weren't motivated enough to search it out on our own, so nothing had come of it. Finally, someone decided to take matters into their own hands and brought us in season 1. We started it Friday night and have watched 4 episodes. We both are really enjoying it. I'm trying not to burn Ryan out on it so am waiting for him to be the one to suggest it, but I am dying to watch another episode.
Here is a clip from the first episode that gave me goosebumps.

Side Note: started the Sword of Truth series and am enjoying it immensely. Through my enjoyment I have decided that I am ready to finish the TV show series. I am down to my last episode- I'm nervous! It's sad to think after this episode there will be no new creations.
