silverwood and sun

We are just back from the first of our weekend getaway vacations this summer.  We stayed in a condo (I won’t even BEGIN to go into the backstory about our lodging issues) on Lake Coeur d’Alene with my Dad, step-mom, and sister.  We had a great time and here are a few pics from our time at Silverwood.

After a long day on the rides…

The view of the sunset from our condo…

And some fun park time in Spokane Valley on the way home…

   

Thanks Grandpa and Nana for a super fun trip! 

Next up: Long Beach.  Stay tuned!

A Homestyle fourth

We spent the 4th of July at home this year.  For only the 2nd time in 14 years, we did not go down to the annual 4th of July celebration with the Jones clan down in Oregon.  We were sad to miss it, but if you recall what happened to our poor Levi last year, we thought it best not to go to the heart of grass country. Maybe we will try for next year.  So on a last minute sort of whim, we decided to host a BBQ for a few friends.  The weather was amazing and we had a great time playing lawn games and enjoying some good company.
