at the beach

Didn't get to go surfing but got a nice little 5 mile trail run in anyway.

Daddy Day - April 8, 2011

Just two pics but we had a full day getting ready for the PDX Bike Show. Got to carry stuff and hang out "behind the scenes" at the convention center! Also got to see Bob of Bob's Red Mill and got our picture taken in front of his beautiful Model A by the president of NCNM. Also, the weather was great.

Daddy Day - April 1, 2011

No fools here, we had a big day and a lot of fun. Check out our slideshow and check back weekly for Daddy Day updates.

une and I had a nice day mostly hanging around the house but we got out for a good walk with Sampson too. Went to the doctor to see about this cough she has but it looks like nothing.

Here's a link to Heather's cute birthday blog for June

SAN DIEGO!

Well it rained cats and dogs but that just gave us more time to catch up and play with June. I, however, forgot my camera... Rick sent some pics and I'll see if my phone pics are any good before posting. 

We did make it out between showers a few times and June had a great time playing dress up, riding the carousel, checking out the botanical garden at Balboa Park and wandering through the farmer's market snacking on all kinds of great treats like coconut pancakes! We also went to the beach and June took her first plane ride.

The trip to San Diego went pretty well. There was an empty row of seats in the back and we set up camp their so Juni could move around. A nice off-duty flight attendant going to SD to visit her family gave June her first pair of wings and kept her entertained. The trip home was sold out so we had to snuggle up to a nice Navy avionics mate who also kept June entertained for part of the trip, she can get anyone making goo goo faces when she wrinkles her nose up. The second part of the trip home from Seattle she slept through which was great timing. 

All in all a great mini-vacation and very refreshing. 

June's First Bike Ride!

Well, last Thursday Samantha rigged up the Bo-Bike child seat that my co-workers bought for us when June was born and today we, Samantha, Sampson, Linda and I took the little Bug out for a spin to Westmoreland Park, about a mile from our house. 

There were lots of ducks and some folks were practicing their fly casting skills in the casting pond, which reminded me that I need to re-new my fishing license and get out there this season... we played on the swings for a minute and then headed for home. June liked watching Sampson run next to Samantha on the bike and chattered most of the way home. 

It was pretty cold out, June's windshield helped to protect her from the wind a little, and we were ready for some hot soup for lunch. 

Enjoy the pics and we'll have more once it warms up a little. 

We also went to the beach yesterday and we're heading to San Diego on Thursday! Busy bees!! We're all looking forward to the warmer weather and hanging out by the pool.
