June in Review


Well, since I totally slacked the month of June, it's about time I do a review of June. We had a very busy, but awesome month of June! First up was McKenzie's graduation.

My little sister graduated from high school and we are all sooo very proud of her and everything that she accomplished her four years at NHS. I'm looking forward to having another lute in the family, as she has chosen to go to PLU next year!


My grandparents were in town from Colorado for two weeks to help celebrate Kenzie's graduation. It was great to see them and have them around for such a long time. :) Here are some pics from graduation. We were able to sit in the press box with the Anderson family (family friends). One of the perks to having a Dad who is a football coach! ;) In the first pic, you can see Kenze (she's the furthest right of the graduates) And the second pic is just a cool one of quite a few of the kids.




After graduation, the festivities began with attending graduation parties. We had three coach's kids graduate this year (leaving just one left to go!) so we went to those parties. It was a good time with friends and LOTS of good food.



Me and Kenze before her party began.


I was able to spend one whole day with my grandparents at the beach. It was really fun...I love going to the beach any chance I get and it was fun to go exploring with the grandparents. We made it to Cannon Beach, Seaside, a Lewis and Clark museum, and Astoria.



Jeremy's business has really taken off this summer and we are really thankful for that. He has our brother-in-law, Ben, and a good friend, Zack, working with him and they are busy all the time. They are really great people, and hard-workers, and we both really trust them so the arrangement has been working out quite well. Here's a pic of one of the projects before it was finished.



Towards the end of June, we headed to California to celebrate Jeremy's Grandpa's 90th birthday. It was the first time that I met most of the family and we had a great time. We stayed with Jer's cousin Ryan and his wife, Kristina. We really enjoyed our time with them! As you can see from the picture below, I was well taken care of after Jeremy left me behind! Not sure I mentioned it earlier, but Jer had to leave on Sunday b/c of work and I stayed until Tuesday. It wasn't a problem though because I enjoyed my time with Kristina and the rest of the family.


I came home to find baby raccoons in one of the trees in our backyard one morning. I got some great pics from our family room window. Here you can see the little guy hugging the tree. So Cute!! I just hope they make their way down the creek so that we don't have to deal with adult raccoons!

That just about hits the highlights of June. We spent quite a few nights with family and friends and are looking forward to an awesome July!
