Marc's 10 Year College Reunion

This weekend was my 10 year college reunion. It is amazing to see what has changed on campus and how much it has grown. Half of the buildings were there when we were there the other half are new and amazing. If you want your kid to go to Whitworth the cost this year is almost $35k for tuition, room and board. It was also good to see all the alumni and hear what is going on.

The Front of the new East Dorm. It looks exactly like a ski lodge and is green certified. The floors all have radiant heating in them, not only will your toes stay warm, but it heats the building instead of heating vents.


Old School and Mac Hall.

Over the Labor Day weekend we spent the weekend with Susannah's college roommates in a great house on the Oregon Coast. The house was huge, right on the beach, and the weather was almost perfect.

New Home Decor

Marc's parents were up for a visit a few weeks ago and helped us make a fabric headboard for our bed and put up curtains in the livingroom and bedroom. I also talked Marc into getting new bedding and he was so kind as to let me choose a flower print duvet cover!

Yes it is THAT HOT

Yes it is sooooo hot that Susannah is running through the sprinkler.

103 degrees a new record.

It reached 103 degrees today here in Seattle a new all time record by 3 degrees. It was 94 degrees in our hous at 5:55. I came home to find susannah in our basement beating the heat. Of course we scored an air conditioner from my buddy Jeremy Ernst for $40. That is the best $40 I ever spent this year.

Enjoying the Beach House

Our friend Chad has a family beach house in Allyn on the Hood Canal. The cabin was great, with a nice large porch where we could watch the boats and eat like kings. We enjoyed "boating" or lack there of due to mechanical problems with the boat. This was a great weekend to hang out and enjoy a wonderful summer weekend with friends.


The main house is white and one of the guest bungalows in the fore ground.

So I jumped into the cold and refreshing sound water ready for some fun.....and the boat wouldn't start.


So we waited for the neighbors to come rescue us.


Oooo solo mia!! Ooo sooolooo mi!!! Just paddling toward shore.


We enjoyed boating around the cabin


After such an adventure we enjoyed some appetizers.


Later that night we played Monopoly and headed off to bed.
