Couples' Shower and Family Picnic

Lisa, Mollie, Jenni, Ben, Jayson, and Jeff at Kara and Travis's couples' shower - the one picture I have, and they aren't even in it. :)
We had a big "Gowey family picnic" at my aunt and uncle's house in Olympia. They have a big, beautiful house and property; perfect for some good old-fashioned Gowey fun. Even though it was about 95 degrees all day, we still had fun.
My cousin Amanda - she didn't look too thrilled to run through the sprinkler :)
Her sister Kayla had a blast, though.


My dad with his 3 brothers. We decided to let Riley off his leash since they live far from the road. This was a treat for him, so he proceeded to run around for about 3 hours straight, chasing birds and butterflies (or their shadows, whichever caught his eye first. He ended up with huge blisters on his poor little feet by the end of the day.






4th of July and Anniversary

We had our families over for the 4th this year to BBQ. We decided to go up to the firework stand on our street to get a few things to join the fun. Riley is definitely NOT a fan of fireworks, and was a complete basketcase from about 8:00 until the explosions finally tapered off at around midnight. Poor guy :(
We are in an unincorporated county, so fireworks get a little crazy at our house - they literally go nonstop EVERYWHERE for about 4 hours with NO breaks in between - headache!!
Stacey (Jeff's sister) made Kaitlyn a cute quilt :)
Our 2 year anniversary was on the 1st, so we treated ourselves to a nice dinner and a walk by the beach. :)
