Summer 2009 Summary

Howdy! I figured I'd better get caught up with this blog before it's summer again! So, remembering back to the summer, there were several memorable events:

For Father's Day, we went camping at Jeanne and Norm's property. Joe was visiting from New Mexico and we got to spend some quality time there around the campfire. We also helped Norm clear space for his trailer, which he brought up and left there. The girls found salamanders in the creek and had a blast!

We re-arranged our house- moved our computer room into the living room, and moved Cassie into the old computer room. Zoe stayed in the same room that they had shared before. This is working out great! However we're still going into Cassie's closet to find our Computer manuals and Cassie still has some of her stuff in Zoe's closet.

We helped my Mom and Dad move furniture into their Mountain House on Willamette Pass. We had an IKEA party, where we assembled most of the furniture. While Peter and I moved the rooms around our house, my mom had the girls over there for a Grandma Camp week! That was really fun for all.

Peter helped his Dad move, multiple times! Long saga made short, they are here in Carlton Oregon, only 20 minutes away from Newberg! This is very cool because we've seen Dave and Sondra more often in the last 6 months than we have in the last 6 years.

We spend time in Pacific City with my parents over 4th of July, as per our tradition. Birthday Party for all the July Birthdays. Lots of fun beach times, and the foggiest fireworks ever! We could barely see 20 feet in front of our faces, so the fireworks were like big surprise explosions lighting up the fog.

We didn't go camping as much as we did the year before, but we did explore the area around the Mountain House- Oakridge, Cresent Lake, etc.
