moving on

Goodbye Honda!  It's been a great 6+ years.  You have been a trusty 'ol reliable friend, but it is time to move on.  We wish you the best in your new relationship with Holli!

My good friend and client of over 11 years convinced me to sell it to her grand-daughter.  I was a little leery of selling it to a friend... I would feel so badly if something went wrong shortly after the sale, but it all worked out and everyone is happy.  Ryan has decided that a truck is in his near future.  Toyota Tundra that is.  Anyone selling one?

temporary champ...

Poker Champ for September '10.  Ryan is disappointed to announce that he had to relinquish his belt.  Especially to Brock.  But, because of our move and crazy month of August, he did get to hold the poker champ title for 2 months.  I guess it was time for someone else to have a turn! I say October is MY month!

coral cliffs and lp round two

On somewhat of a whim, we went to Powell for our second time this year.  With the Wilde's.  Thank you Wilde's.  We love the Wilde's. It was very worth the scramble.  Even Bogey was happy on the lake.

THE POLL's  TUBE: The coolest one we've played on yet.

Ry with the kiddos: Tex and Sav

The boys tried so hard to get me, Lana, and Chal off the tube, but we held on for so long! Go team!

The Poll family: Lana, Sav, and Uncle Johnnie

Da Boyz: UJ, Ry, Ben = not such a good team.  Chal whipped them off easy!

Beauty Queen Chal with the kids.

and... The Wilde family.  Big Chill.

Adios to LP, for real this time. 

At least til next May '11.

little peach

Our backyard is a little orchard of random fruits, but my most favorite of all is the smallest tree.  The peach.  It is in full bloom now and the fruit is divine.  I think I ate 7 peaches already today!  I hope it gets bigger; you can hardly even see it in this photo.

YUM!

As soon as it starts getting bigger and producing more, you can come over and help yourselves to all you want!

such a tough life

The boys in my house LOVE that football is getting started.  This is what they do when they are watching ESPN together: 

even bogey gets his own remote...

t-bott and the new m-bott

Their day finally arrived. 

Our friends T-Bott and Mandiloo were married this evening.

Kimmie T = the woman behind the scenes who made it all beautiful.  A woman with so much talent.

Baby Austyn was a trooper thru the whole evening.

And, so was baby Remi.

....look at those tired little eyes.

So, the Botts are now official.  Congrats to them!
