Once again we invited the family over for the 4th to enjoy the fireworks in our neighborhood and more importantly ribs! We had a pretty good turnout this year, though Pam's family still hasn't been able to come over. That living on the other side of the sound makes such a big difference. I didn't take too many pictures, but here are some of what I have.
Izzy is very afraid of the fireworks so we spent a good amount of the night attempting to calm her down. I think next year we are going to need to get her a relaxant or something as I don't think she can take another night like that. Poor girl!
We all had fun and the ribs were delicious as always.
This is the summer of weddings for our family. My stepsister Joey had a beautiful wedding in Seattle to her now husband Rob. Rob is from London so they had neat decorations to commemorate the differences from London and Seattle.
Chad's best friend Jesse, who is like a second little brother to me, got married this summer. It was a beautiful backyard wedding, very laid back and lots of people had quite a bit to drink. We enjoyed the wedding and wish them the best for the future!
Saturday morning we headed out of town, we decided to come home going up 101 so we crossed over the Golden Gate Bridge and then headed up the coast. We went through the Redwoods and went for a walk in the Founders Grove which we had skipped the last time we were at the Redwoods. We drove a little further up the coast until we found a hotel in Crescent City to stay the night.
Sunday we decided to just drive home the rest of the way after spending some time enjoying the ocean in the morning.
We had a fabulous trip, I always forget how tiring all that driving can make me so it was nice to get home and have the next day off to recoup before heading back to work.
