Ellie's class danced to "Jolly Holiday" from Mary Poppins. And I spent the evening backstage, wrangling penguins and ballerinas alike.

Day 165: Triple Falls
June 14
I joined Vicki's youth group on a hike today to Triple Falls. I'm sad that we've lived here eight years, and this was the first time I'd seen this! I love Oregon.
Day 164: Three Monkeys
June 13
It was great to spend the day at the zoo with some of our close friends who moved out of our neighborhood last year.
Day 163: The Last Ones
June 12
I finally finished off the last box of Girl Scout cookies. Now I have to wait until next February for more.
Day 162: I Gotta Feelin'
June 11
Dress rehearsal for Lexi's jazz class. She's the one on the far right.
Day 161: Rock Collection
June 10
If you live in my neighborhood and are missing some rocks, they're probably on my porch.
Day 160: Almost Home
June 9
I love having this beautiful landmark to let us know for sure when we're getting close.
Day 158: Creekside
June 7
Chris's office designed this amazing camp, and they opened it up again for his office to have a family weekend there.
Day 157: Graduation Girl
June 6
Lexi has been blessed with an amazing teacher for her last two years of elementary school. We're sad to say goodbye to Ms. Reneé, but hopeful that Ellie will be able to be in her class in a few years. And now Lexi is excited to be moving on to middle school.
Day 156: Their Last Parade
June 5
After seven years, Vicki's Girl Scout troop is dissolving. These girls' interests are changing and they're moving on to different things. We've always walked in the Junior Rose Festival Parade, and they chose to do it again one last time. I'm going to miss these girls!
Day 155: Talent Show
June 4
The curtain call for the talent show at the elementary school. Ellie is on the far left, in a penguin costume.

Day 153: Flat
June 2
On the way home from church today it suddenly became very clear that there was no longer air in this tire. Chris was at home working, so I tried to change it myself (while wearing a knee-length skirt - I KNEW I should've worn pants today!), but I wasn't strong enough to budge the stupid nuts. Fortunately, a good Samaritan stopped and gave us a hand.
Day 152: Coolest Geocache Ever
June 1
We took a trip up Mt. Hood today to check out some campsites for this summer, and we decided to do a geocache while we were there. We picked one at random, and it turned out to be the coolest cache we've ever found. It was at an abandoned hot springs resort. All that remains are some cement walls, an old foundation, and this crumbling fireplace/stove that was used to heat the water for the "natural" hot springs.
