The Peggy, Alicia, and Adrienne Adventure!
Hey Everyone!
Peggy, Alicia, and I did an awesome movie/book road trip up the West Coast. We visited Seaside, Oregon; Astoria, Oregon; and finally Forks, Washington! Below are some pics from our trip.
Astoria, Oregon: "The Goonies"
This is where they filmed the amazing movie, "The Goonies". On our adventure, we decided to make quick stops at some of the famous sites.

Above is the museum that Mikey's dad worked at.
Above is the Goonies headquarters and below is Data's house.
" I want my bike!"
Forks, Washington: "Twilight"
At the Forks visitor center, they had a huge world map where people have put pins from where they are from. Above is just a small portion of the map...see if you can find Sidney, OH.... :)
Yay! First Sidney person to visit Forks, Washington. By the way, people from as far as the Netherlands and Australia have visited Forks.
The sign below is actually by their emergency room entrance. Just a little side note...They have the smallest hospital I've ever seen.
Below are pictures of the Cullen's house and Bella's house. From what we found out at the visitor's center, the city of Forks picked out these houses to be the closest representation from the book.
Above is the Cullen's house. Below is a note from Esme that was posted on the front of the house. This is actually a B&B located in Forks.
Above is Bella's house...actually a private residence. Below is where we stayed while in Forks. It's called the Manitou Lodge B&B.
Below is a picture of our cabin.
It was karaoke night and my first time singing in front of people! It was the ideal first karaoke singing situation...10pm in Forks, Washington and only 8 other people in the room. By midnight there were like 30 people....it was hot place to be that night!
The electric slide....haha
Alicia and I made friends pretty easily. Everyone in Forks is so nice!
Back in Portland...
We did the downtown walking tour and took the traditional Portland picture.
We did a little wine tasting in Dundee and Dayton, Oregon.
Lastly, we visited a few smaller waterfalls and ended with Multnomah Waterfall.

This is the best road trip I've ever taken. It's also the dorkiest one. Alicia and I are always up for anything, and I'm really glad we got to do this together. I can't thank Momma Peg enough for putting up with our craziness and being okay with adding a road trip to their vacation.

Summer Catch Up!
Sorry I haven't posted in awhile. Tom and I have been super busy with work, the new puppy, and having many visitors. Over the next few days, I'll be posting pictures from Alicia and Peggy's visit and the Hartings visit. Enjoy! :)

First Day Home with Lady
Hey Folks,
Yesterday, I took Lady home. Since we have visitors coming in a few weeks, I thought it would be a good idea to get her use to us before we have other people staying here. Below are a few pics of Lady's first day at home. I'm sure I'll put up cuter ones later...Since Tom is in Ohio and not here with us, this post is more for him than anyone. :)
She's really smart and very eager to please. I started to train her on the easy commands like sit and lay down, and so far, potty training has been going well. She is getting use to the car, and I hope by this afternoon I get her use to the crate with the door closed.
Thanks for reading, and I apologize in advance for all the puppy pictures I will be posting. :)

Introducing Lady
On May 22nd we picked the pink girl to be our puppy. When we met her she came running to Tom and immediately gave him puppy kisses. When Tom and I were both on the floor playing with the puppy, she curled up by my neck and started giving me puppy kisses. She is so cute and cuddly. It was hard saying goodbye. We're really excited to have her...we get to pick her up next week! :)
Below is the newest picture of her...she's so crazy looking!

Volleyball...Spring League
In Spring, I had the opportunity to play every Sunday night in a women's volleyball league. I met a lot of great people and had fun playing again! It's been so long since I've played competitively, and I realized that I missed it a lot. Below is a picture at our playoff tournament. We came in 2nd place!
I have to thank Bri for letting me into her volleyball world and introducing me to some amazing players and people. I hope we can get a fall team together! :)
