Summer Wrap Up

I can't believe it's already September! I have totally slacked off on posting lately - I'll blame the lazy days of summer. Actually, they haven't been very lazy at all...we've been out and about keeping pretty busy and trying to squeeze in as much activity as possible before the rain begins.

Here are a few of my favorite pictures from the last couple weeks of summer.

Starting at the top: Henry downtown outside the main library. He was so excited this day because he got to wear his jersey without a shirt on underneath it for the first time - just like a real basketball player!

We went to the Sandy River on one of the really hot days - had a blast. I'd love to get back out there for another day if the weather stays hot. Henry loved the calm, shallow water and that there were lots of other kids there to play in the sand with. In this picture I asked him to show me a "normal face" and that's what I got.

Henry, Gigi and I spent a cold, rainy and windy day at the Oregon Coast. Still played on the beach and had fun despite the less than stellar weather.

At Director's Park in downtown Portland - one of our favorite spots on warm days. It's right in the middle of the hustle and bustle of downtown (across from the Fox Tower) and is always full of kids playing in the fountain.

We went down to Pioneer Courthouse Square to see the Stanley Cup and join in the Winterhawks celebration. Henry got to meet three of the new Winterhawks and shoot some pucks too.

And, finally, Goofy! Goofy came to the radio station for a meet and greet. While a little cautious at first, Henry warmed up and enjoyed meeting him.
