The Nihill's bought Dave this for our 25th anniversary and Dave said he needed to carve in 2 more lines. 

Harper went shopping with a friend and her mom in Bellevue and was texting me pics. 
She bought these jeans. 
Dave got a grade report on his fantasy football team.  
Yikes...could be a long year. 
Logan and Corbin flew to Chicago to spend some time with her family. 
She lives in a suburb but they rode the train into the city and had a great day exploring. 

Harper and her pretty summer freckles.
Lots of swimming and pool volleyball
And night swimming too.

We went to dinner up at Mission Ridge.

I took Harper and two of her friends to Lake Chelan for a couple of days. 
This was the view from my room. 
Harper doing a cartwheel on the floating mat. 
Harper jumped from the bridge at Lake Chelan
Taylor Swift announced her next album release with a countdown. 
Ive had to remind myself that Ill miss this someday :)

Presley texted me that her work friends celebrated her birthday with balloons, a banner and morning doughnuts. 
Presley and Kel came to Wenatchee and watched Ella perform in "Dirty Rotten Scoundrels" 
Corbin and Logan took Harper to Zarah's Coffee to get a bucket coffee. 
Corbin found this on Zarah's Instagram page and showed Logan it and he told her that it's located in Wenatchee. They tried it out when they came in August. 
Rylan asked me earlier this summer if he could go to Watershed and I told him no. 
I don't really remember that conversation, but he said it happened.   
I shared this with him....Maybe next year?
