Lately

Sorry there's been so much radio silence here. Lots to do, lots on our minds, less time to think about blog posts!

Here are a few snap shots from the last month of us living in Bend:

Our new place has lots of great outdoor space. Even for painting!

We became members of the High Desert Museum - it is AWESOME

Learning to be a pioneer

She apparently likes doing this kind of laundry way more than the kind we do at home...

Always gotta hug Smokey while we're there.

We got a babysitter! We got to go on a bike ride together! And THEN have COFFEE!! 

Dancing at the bike race. We went to cheer on our friend Dave at the State Championship Crit Races. 

Minor League baseball game (Bend Elks). What's more "America in the summer" than this picture? 

More Americana: eating homemade blueberry pie (courtesy of our builder's family)

We couldn't stay away from Hood River for 3 weeks! Actually we had a wedding to go to. Our dear friends and old neighbors, Chris and Stephen were married on their orchard in Mosier. It was a beautiful wedding. Noella saw the dance floor and didn't go anywhere else the rest of the night until the cake came out. She even met a boyfriend while there :)

 One little weekend trip scheduled for the holiday weekend: concert in Jacksonville, OR (our old stomping grounds) and camping at Crater Lake with friends Aaron, Carrie and Lewis. One week until work for me and daycare for Noella! New beginnings....
