Aaron and Laura with Jack...in front of thier new house!

Here's a view of the front...(Dave's in the orange shirt thinking he's out of the picture...)
Analee, Nate and Jack at Tia Rosa's for lunch.


These two are so much fun!

Laura is such a good mommy...Look at Jack's smile!

Ok, for some reason these pictures loaded out of order, but Aaron scored these AWESOME Diamondback tickets where we paid $60.00 per ticket but $30.00 per person went to food! They were at TGI Friday's in the stadium and the seats were right on the rail! We had great view, and the food was so yummy! Here's a picture of Dave with is Steak and Shrimp!

Aaron celebrating a great pitch! He is a very enthusastic fan. The Dbacks won on the night we went to see them but they lost the next two games. They are officially out of the Playoffs. Bummer.

This is the Jackster. He is so much bigger than when we saw him in June. He's such a cute little man.

Uncle Charlie with Jack at Tia Rosa's on Saturday.

This is Chase field. (It used to be Bank one Ballpark). It was our first time seeing a game at this Stadium. Dave has decided that he wants to visit all the major league ballparks now. We'll see how long that takes us.

Our view of the field from our AWESOME seats...

We had to purchase Dback t-shirts and hats so we'd look like the true fans that we are!

Me with Aaron and Laura...

I'm telling you...that is the only way to watch a baseball game! So Fun!

Thanks for all your planning Aaron! You guys made our weekend totally Fun!

Can't wait until next time!

Layouts & photobooth pics

Views from Rattlesnake Ridge...Boinkers...Crazy Hours...Fair Time...Desk!

Last Friday we went to see our favorite 70s & 80s Rock coverband "The Boinkers". (theboinkers.com) We had a total blast dancing the night away!

We both worked on Labor day and Dave was working some crazy 9pm-11pm and 4am-11am shifts all last week. He'll have to do it some of this week too because the club is recarpeting the workout areas so they have to move treadmills, etc. off the floor at night and go in before the club opens to move them back onto the newly carpeted area. They are doing it in sections and that is what is taking so long. I'll be glad when that's over. (So will he!)

We went to the Puyallup Fair on Friday night. What a blast! I love fair food! We had ice cream, onion burgers, curly fries, & more ice cream. I really love the funnel cakes & kettle corn but I was too full to eat anymore. Maybe I should grow 3 more stomachs like a cow has...speaking of cows...we saw lots of stinky, smelly livestock. Cows, sheep, horses and piglets that were only 4 days old! We saw the draft horse show but missed the hypnotist. We made our fair purchase: "Cham Wow"s (shamies for cleaning & washing cars, boats, etc), an old Coca-Cola sign and a gift for Dave's Dad's b-day in November. We'll have to go back before the fair ends to have funnel cakes and kettle corn and to see the hypnotist. Oh, I was also so excited when Dave suggested having our picture taken in one of those photo booths! He's never been willing to do that when i asked before...this time HE suggested it! They turned out cute. I'll have to scan them and upload them soon.

Today we helped my cousin Kim move her matress and some furniture into her new rental place and then went to Costco Home Store looking for a desk for Dave. No luck. Then we went to Bellevue Square to Crate & Barrel, Nordstroms, Macys and ate an early dinner at the Cheesecake Factory...Love that place! Afterwards I suggested stopping at Basset Furniture store in Southcenter and we found the perfect desk and it was on SALE!!! SCORE! It will be delivered in 3-4 weeks. Just enough time to clean out the current office desk and find it a good home. (Or take it to the dump if there are no takers). So if you want a perfectly good desk that is 63in.(L)x29.5in.(w)x30in.(h) in a light wood that was originally from IKEA about 5 yrs ago...it's yours...just haul it away!

Ok, an update on last week's to do list: I got everything done EXCEPT going to see Mama Mia. (I wonder if it's still in theaters, or if I've waited too long?)

New list:

1. Buy a shredder

2. Vacuum upstairs and down

3. Pack for trip

4. Scan and upload latest scrapbook pages

5. Backup 5 months worth of photos to cd (yikes)!
