Woodland Park Zoo

Our first family trip to the zoo was a hit. Emily liked all the animals but the bears.

Pumpkin Patches

Here are some of our trips to the pumpkin patches. Emily and I went to Remlingers with RMG during the week and Dave came with us to one on the weekend. She wore the same outfit to both so there you go.

Clam Digging in Westport

Here is what it looked like when we went clam digging. Very nice two of the days and monsoon rain and wind the last day of digging. We got our limits twice.

Old Friends Visit

Alyssa, Marissa and Shabana visit for the weekend. Here we are at Umi, the best sushi in Seattle. We had a great weekend. Funny to think we all met in September 1994.

Mom's Birthday Getaway

My mom, Julie aka Mimi had a big birthday this year. We celebrated at Val's lake house in Orgeon. Thanks Val!!! It was like a giant slumber party, but with better food and drink.

Mt Rainier

Day trip to Mt. Rainier, it was foggy but a fun drive. This was the best picture I got and it is really bad.

Doing the Puyallup

Mimi, Emily and I went to the Puyallup fair. We spent the whole day there, went on all the children's rides, it was fun. Here are some of our pictures. This was our third and last fair of the year if you're counting.
