Two years went by in the blink of an eye!

Bob and I celebrated our 2 year anniversary on August 12...It went by fast. So fast!!! Its been amazing, great, and wonderful. He is a keeper!
To celebrate we went on a nice morning hike to Silver Falls State park...We did the big loop and got to see a lot of waterfalls! Such a beautiful day!
Say Cheese!!!

Huge tree! I guess they call this old growth!

Heman!!! So strong he can push trees apart!

After our hike, we stopped off in Sublimity for some cold beer and good eats at the Wooden Nickel. Then home to rest, shower and head out again!
For dinner, we went to my favorite place, Rudy's at the Salem Golf Club. Very cool atmosphere over looking the golf course! They have the BEST Filet Mignon!! I love it!!
Happy Anniversary My Love!!!

Playin hookie

It was a HOT HOT day here in the valley, so we got outta the house and had some fun. After soccer camp (Lucy is doing a week long soccer camp this week 10-12pm) we headed to a near by pond to try our luck fishing....no luck fishing. We did have lunch and feed some ducks though.
After an hour and a half we moved on to the Aumsville pond and tried our luck there.....nope. So we went to the park and played in the creek! Nice time to cool off!!!
A very fun day of playing hookie!!!

Moose fishing away!
My pond girl!

Cooling off in the creek!!!
And what better way to end a day of playing hookie? Bob's Burgers!!!
