Jay Day

On Saturday we paid tribute to our friend Jay Danser who passed one year ago. We had a wonderful ceremony where we dedicated the park bench in Jay's memory. It was cold but the sun came out during the dedication. A little sign that Jay was with us. Thank you to Jay's family, his friends, co-workers from Architects West and to all the people that traveled so far to join us. Please visit this beautiful spot at Higgen's point and remember our great friend.

Ryan's Birthday!

On Thusday March 5th we celebrated my birfdey! Holly took me out to a "date" dinner and I opened my gifts. Then we met up with our friends for a Donavan Frankenriter concert in Spokane. We had a blast and proved that we're not too old to stay out late on a Thursday night. Then on Friday I worked a half day and went skiing with Di and Sean Freeman. Thank you to Holly, Chris, Christine, Di, Sean and Rob(visiting Christine). The only thing missing was Cake! Ha Ha.

Freeman's partying down.

Crazy Kids!

Hawaii was AWSOME

Holly, Zane and I had a wonderful vacation to Hawaii. We visited the Island of Kauai and stayed in Lihue and Poipu Beach. The weather was perfect and only rained hard on our way to the airport for the trip home. Holly enjoyed a Helicopter tour, I enjoyed a fishing trip even though we came home empty handed and Zane had a blast swimming everyday. We are glad to be home. Here are a few pictures from the trip.
