K9K8 Year in Review: 2008

Our second year together has been fabulous, and I have gathered some pics from my favorite memories to share.

Camping at Lake Wenatchee, Memorial Day 2008

Camping with Jeremy and Pat at Lake Wenatchee. When the rain and the mosquitos drove us inside for most of the evening, I decided that the girls and I needed a bigger tent. Sadie and Maddox claimed the majority of the floor space in my 2-person back…

Camping with Jeremy and Pat at Lake Wenatchee. When the rain and the mosquitos drove us inside for most of the evening, I decided that the girls and I needed a bigger tent. Sadie and Maddox claimed the majority of the floor space in my 2-person backpacking tent, leaving me to squeeze myself into the corner.

A perfectly peaceful morning in the woods... except for the bored puppies anxious to escape the tent. We went for a hike at dawn to avoid annoying the entire campground.

July 2008: Auntie Bec brought fun floppy frisbees for the girls, and came to the beach with us at low tide. Want details on the best time to hit the beach? Check out low low tide at Edmonds Dog Park

August 2008: Mom's visit brought snuggly custom-knit sweaters and trips to Marymoor Park in Redmond, WA. The video quality is atrocious, but i guess that's what you get from a PocketPC-circa-2008 phone. The important thing is that you can tell how much fun the girls are having.
