This has been a great summer. We didn't travel any farther than Hope, and yet I feel like I've been able to relax and enjoy the glorious summer. It helps that we (my dad and Pentti) put in a wood deck and I got an awesome patio lounge set for my birthday. We went to Hope, I have read really great books, I have baked and cooked new recipes, we spent our anniversary at the Michael Buble concert and then the Hyatt hotel. Countless hours have been spent at the waterpark, meeting friends and sipping lattes. Here are a few pics to represent my summer:
