Katie and Erik: Summer

Lots of updating to do, so I'll try to sum everything up concisely! We are really enjoying our summer and are trying to pack lots of activities into it. The weather has been great and we've spent a lot of time outside.

We've been trying to go on lots of hikes, but instead of putting up hike pictures now, I'm going to wait until later in the summer and do a hike mega-post! I've got some good pictures already.

Erik's mom was down here in June to look at more houses with her realtor. We enjoyed having her here and even made a weekend trip out to the coast!

I made it out to Idaho in June for the annual Girl's Club Camp Out! It was so nice seeing all the wonderful women (and Gabby, Nick, Kate and Henry) of my family, nothing like hanging out in the woods drinking box wine. :)

For the 4th of July Kristin came up and we went downtown to see the firework show. It was pretty amazing and we had the perfect spot until a fire broke out and we moved further from the crowd.

we're not very good at taking pictures

We've also been riding our bikes a lot this summer, and now that we actually have bike locks we will be riding them even more! We rode down to the Sellwood park here.

In July we headed up to Alaska for the Charbonneau wedding, congratulations Brian and Morgan! The rehearsal dinner, ceremony, and reception were all great and will be very memorable. It is so great to see everyone at least a couple times of year. We are lucky to have so many great friends.

We also got to spend time with my sister, brother-in-law, and nephews. Its amazing how fast kids grow!

Eric and Erik, the birthday boys!
