My apologies for the lack of posting -- it has been a busy summer for me, with a full work load, taking classes, settling into our new home, and trying to squeeze in vacation wherever I can.
Molly and I spent 8/8/08 + a few days on Vashon Island with Eric (Molly's Bro), Karrie, Ava and Reed. We stayed in an amazing cabin where Betty MacDonald lived and wrote the Mrs. Piggle-Wiggle series of children's books. Here are some pics from that weekend.
My trip to Atlanta back in June for the Whirlyball Nationals was a lot of fun. My team won the overall tournament; however, we lost the unlimited championship to Michigan for the third year in a row. The Michigan guys posted a montage of their victory game on youTube (note the bias of the editing though; nevertheless, there is a shot of me throwing a sweet full court-length assist pass!)
Molly and I drove down to Eureka, CA to visit with C.D. & Catherine (9/5 - 9/9). They showed us a wonderful time, and C.D. even let Molly fly his plane! Pics from this trip are posted here.
We made a few other trips out of town this summer. Here are the pics:
Our first trip to Lake Chelan (with friends).
Our second trip to Lake Chelan (with family).
Our trip to Portland, 8/15 - 8/17 (with friends).
I'll leave you with an image of one of my most surreal situations this summer, where I somehow managed to find myself break dancing with a belly dancer:
