Holy smokes guys, I didn’t post at all last week! Life has been crazy; busy schedules mean no time for projects and strict budgets mean no cash-ola for projects, so there you go. Hopefully this month I’ll get back into the swing of things.

This weekend we went to Gold Beach with friends for the 4th of July.  Any vacation for James and I requires a lot of eating and that’s exactly what we did. It also involved lots of card games, wine, peeing of the pants kind of laughter, and smooching the chubby cheeks of our niece. We also went to a walk-through Safari about an hour away and saw lots of neat animals up close. James even got to pet a baby tiger. He was pretty giddy. I really can’t handle her cuteness sometimes.  I just love him.
