Life in the Northwest = Greatness.
Minus the heatwave that's been going on the last couple of days... we're talking 3 digits people. It's even too hot to swim (Is that possible?). Don't make fun of us Oregonians... We never get heat with humidity like this. Yuck!
Anyway, Jay found a job a couple of weeks ago as a medical translator. So far he likes it a lot, but it's been hard getting 40 hours a week. So we'll see how it goes.
So things are going great and we LOVE being close to family. And Gwen loves the attention. Who wouldn't???
Well, here's what we've been up to through pictures... so here you go...
My dad's birthday...
Grand kids loving on the birthday boy

Great post! I'm glad that most of the pictures I was there to enjoy with you guys...we LOVE having you back!! Gwen-a-Lou is quite the cutie...I missed her yesterday! And why am I not surprised to see Dusty sleeping with a sucker in his mouth?? A hygienist's nightmare!!!
I can't believe the heat you guys are having!! That really is CRAZY!!! I am glad you are loving being home... Bob and I were definitely sad though that we could not see you while we were in Utah! Gwen is seriously adorable! Isn't it crazy how fast they grow!! She is going to be eating baby food soon! Wow! Love you guys!
I love that you are a mom. I would love it more if we were moms living down the hall from each other.
I can't believe Gwen is already laughing so hard... what a little cutie. She's getting so big!! Sad we missed it all but thanks for posting all the fun pictures for us. Loved the little heart covering Gwen in the tub...cute.
That girl has the best faces I have ever seen on a baby. We miss seeing you guys around. If you come to town we still need to frolf. Hope your having a great time in Oregon.
Your little Gwen is so dang cute!!!
You said that you hadn't seen a pic of Ricks baby, well I just posted one on my blog of Brynlie and my baby Ellee. Just thought I would let you know!! Looks like you are having lots of fun!!
