If you haven’t been to Elemental at Gasworks, go there tonight for dinner. AMAZING food. AMAZING view of the city. For my father-in-law’s birthday, we spent an evening with family, friends, wine and food at Elemental and it was phenomenal.
Larry, I’m not one to give toasts at parties, so you get mine a bit late: You are the glue that holds the world together, and I am amazed. You love deeply, give generously, and wear a viking hat like nobody’s business.









Nadia partied ’til she dropped…around 8:45.

One of summer’s adventures that I look forward to every year comes along right around the time the corn grows taller than me. A means of measuring time I have borrowed from my friend Jenn. The Lynden Fair is a day filled with rides, farm animals, and most importantly a moo-wich (possibly the yummiest treat known to man.) Lynden is a bit of a jaunt up north, but when the journey is equally fun as the event, you know you’ve chosen the right friends to make the trip.


This would be Addison’s first roller coaster. She didn’t have a moments hesitation. Of course, she was sitting next to her big brother Landon and it’s her dream of dreams to be just like him.



A little reptile lovin.


Those slides are not meant for anyone taller than a step ladder. Awkward doesn’t begin to describe it.




So glad to have the memories to add to the summer’s collection. I’ll be counting the days til a little moo-wich lovin comes my way again.
It’s rare that there is someone at a reception to whom we willingly lend camera equipment to. Reason number one: we might not get our stuff back. Reason number two: you might break it. Reason number three: you’ll probably try to take our picture. At Karen and Jake’s reception, we broke our “normal” and handed off a camera – we’ll show you some of the party pics later. I just wanted to show you that we are right – although the camera was returned in perfect shape, we were photographed several times throughout the evening. Here we are in all our glory! Yes, we eat dessert at receptions, especially when it’s blueberry goatmilk frozen yogurt from Molly Moons!
