The wedding !!!


You couldn't have special ordered a more perfect day for a wedding. It was a quintessential fall day and everyone was in high spirits. Shaun was a groomsman for Todd, hence the fancy threads, while the rest of us were in the cheering squad. Our friend Chuck, on the right, had just returned from a seven month assignment in Afganistan and was able to make it to the ceremony so it was a very special treat to see him after such a long time. Weddings are the best for bringing friends and family together, don't ya think?











No tubby in the little cabin we stayed in at the wedding site the night of the rehersal dinner, so Alex got his tubby in the sink! Cute knees, huh?

Shaun, Alex and Chris roast coffee beans





We returned from Seattle and jumped right into another adventure. Our friends Todd and Michelle were getting married in few days so the friends were coming in to attend the wedding. Chris and Ed, not in the picture, stayed with us.

While Todd and Michelle were getting ampted up about thier approaching big day, Shaun, Alex, Chris and I were getting ampted up and roasting our own beans. The coffee was a little burnt the first time around, but the second try was primo! I must say, our house was full of chaos and high energy that day!!!























While in Seattle



We went to the zoo, got into mischief with Alex and visted with family.




















I still don't understand why it is stuck to my head?..
