We finally bought a house!

After a year long search, we finally found the right house for us. It is a 4 bedroom, 3 bathroom house with full basement, located in an established neighborhood. We are definitely the young bucks on the block, but we have great neighbors. We think this is a house we can really grow into and enjoy for many years to come!

Seattle trip with Tim

Since Tim came out for Chad and Jackie's wedding, we decided to take a trip to Seattle after the wedding.

We took the underground tour in Seattle. Definitely worth doing!

The gorgeous couple... so happy in love!

You may now kiss your bride... You did it Chad!

Absolutely stunning!

A good time was had by all!

Chad and Jackie's rehearsal

We celebrated Chad and Jackie's rehearsal dinner at the parents house. Harry and Diane have a beautiful home on the hilltop in Yakima, so there was plenty of space for a big party!

Tim made the trip to Yakima for the wedding. He helped grill dinner.

The beautiful couple!

Chad wondering if he should have another beer or not...

Spokane Shock & Spokane Chiefs games

We went to some Spokane Shock indoor football games and Spokane Chiefs hockey games with friends this year.

Christie, Mark and Audrey

Such a funny picture... Touchdown!

Marnie, Christie, and Jamie at the Chiefs game. Go Chiefs Go!

Nick and Jamie had to buy Audrey a Boomer the Bear

Barbie party

Christie's daughter Audrey had a Barbie themed birthday party. Somehow Christie talked Jamie into being Barbie for all the kiddos. It proved to be a great distraction for Jamie.

Lots of make-up and a shiny pink dress made the kids think Jamie was a real life Barbie

Linda

It is with great sadness that we had to say goodbye to Linda, Jamie's mom. It's hard to imagine having lost both parents at such a young age. We have to cherish the memories we had together.

I love this picture of Linda. She looks so happy here.
