It’s obvious that summer has finally made its appearance in western Washington which has kept us very busy.
On Saturday, June 20th, I was riding with Katrina and Lindsay in Katrina’s car. We were stopped at a stoplight when someone hit us from behind. No one was seriously injured and much to our surprise, Lola the Corolla wasn’t even totaled. We did have to spend hours in the emergency room to make sure we were all fine. Since then, I have had to get X-Rays and started going to physical therapy/massage therapy. I am finally starting to feel much better and have gotten a lot of my movement back. Katrina and Lindsay seem to be doing much better as well.
That same day, we drove to Ellensburg for our friend Bryan Hoyt’s Surprise 30th Birthday party. We drove over with Mic, Steph & Little Jackson (The Dupis family). We had such a great time riding up there with them, doing some great catching up. The party was a big hit. So many people showed up and set up their tents for the night. Everyone had their significant others and children (if applicable). Alyssa was at her Girl Scout camping trip, so she wasn’t able to go. But it was so great to see everyone else’s families.
The following week, we had Dan’s niece and nephew stayed with us. It was so nice to have them. I was still in too much pain to work, so I was able to stay home with them on Tuesday. They are great kids to hang out with, always full of love and laughter. They fit right in at our home!! Dan dropped them off with Dion and Candy Thursday morning. Another uncle picked them up for the weekend to go camping.
Friday night I went out with some girl friends to celebrate Katrina’s 27th Birthday. Dan and I woke up bright and early Saturday morning. Dan was scheduled to work all day, but when he showed up there was no one there to let them in. He wasn’t too upset considering it was supposed to get up to 90!! Sarah and I had tried to plan a Surprise ½ Birthday party for Chris since his birthday falls on Christmas every year. Things didn’t work out as planned considering Chris started planning his own BBQ. So we all hung out by his pool, BBQ’d in the afternoon and relaxed by the fire to finish the night. Dan got burnt to a crisp, even after applying sunscreen all day.

We woke up at Chris & Sarah’s Sunday morning. They both had some running around to do, so Dan and I went and had brunch at AppleBee’s (one of our Sunday rituals). Afterwards, we went back to Chris’s and sat by the pool to keep cool. The weather was amazing all weekend long. But by early Sunday afternoon, we were ready to be indoors relaxing. As usual we finished our weekend with dinner and Smallville.
