Family Portraits 2022

We had family portraits taken by Elizabeth Hite... it was so nice to include Lexi and we will treasure these photos in the years to come!

Lexi- July Snapshots

Relaxing vibes.

We found a new dog sitter for Lexi... she loves going over to their house and meeting new friends. 

Resting in the living room. 

She loves to lay in sunny patches. 

Afternoon nap time.

Happy 14th Birthday!

The girls celebrated their 14th birthday last month... they went out with a few friends to Wings and Waves Waterpark followed by dinner at The Old Spaghetti Factory.

Friends singing the happy birthday song to the girls :)

Thank you to Aunty Carol and Uncle Joe for the birthday gifts from Hawaii!

Birthday visit with MAWS and DD. 

Chocolate bundt birthday cake!

Grandpa and Grandma Rufener joined us for cake... happy birthday girls! We love you so much!

Manzanita Trip

Lexi came with us on our trip to Manzanita on the Oregon coast. The first day we were there it was cloudy and cool which is her favorite walking weather. 

Lexi resting at the rental house. 

The girls' bestie Abigail came along and they had a great time together.

There is a really nice walking/biking trail near the rental house. 

Lexi enjoyed lounging outside on the enclosed deck. 

The Oregon coast is always so pretty!

The girls baked brownies at the rental house.

More napping. 

Enjoying ice cream on a sunny day :P

We went out to dinner at the Neah-Kah-Nie Bistro. 

I had prawns with polenta... it was delicious!

Hiking with Lexi. 

We love our trips to the Oregon coast... one of our favorite traditions!
