Van Life

I got to drive to the race at Ancient Lakes with my friend Della, and we came over in the sprinter van that her husband Wayne tricked out during Covid. Such a fun weekend adventure! 

slumber party in the bottom "bunk" that opens up -- so many cool features of this van! 

Bananas!

I saw this post a few weeks ago and thought it was laugh-out-loud funny. 

(PB stands for "personal best") 

We happened to have a banana costume in our costume box, so I added some flair and had some fun with it on a run with friends today over in Quincy, WA on the beautiful Ancient Lakes trails. I did hear some folks say, “We’re getting passed by a banana!” as we ran by at the beginning of the race.

I couldn’t help but think, “Yes. Yes, you are. And not just any banana—a tutu-wearing one.”

And just for fun, check this hilarious article out:

sparkling water at its finest on our dinner table last night with gold sparkles :) 

fun dinner with Heidi last night who came into town at the last minute 

breakfast with Joscha, Rowan, and Ivan 

Joscha and Rowan scored on a bin of Legos at Goodwill the other day so we built some masterpieces after breakfast. :) 

The prompt was to create something that represented a picture of utopia we imagine in the future.
