After a long wait...


it's finally here. Summer, glorious Oregon summer.
Summer means I'm in a constant sun high and most days feel like a celebration. And celebrations need to be documented. WARNING: lots of photos to come.



This dreamy Northwest summer doesn't come cheap--we pay for it with a lot of rain and gloomy days throughout the year. But come July? It's on. Summer is sacred. Work and projects and formal commitments are kept to the bare minimum and there's not much on the schedule other than to pick berries, play with water, go camping once or twice and and just BE OUTSIDE.




Bei Bei (Joe's brother) is in town for the holiday and we went for blueberries today.





This little free spirit loves to roam around and explore. Dandelions were her thing today.



We brought home close to twenty pounds of berries and some sweet pictures of these two:


We are so excited to celebrate tomorrow. Have a safe and happy 4th of July!
