Medina Days 2012

We attended Medina Days with the Williams (Tori and Charlotte are not related). Katherine and Tori worked hard on a float where Rosebud was Aladdin and Tori’s dog was the princess. They made it into the Medina Days slideshow.

Two more highlights: the water slide and Hulu Hoop contest. Charlotte and Allison had a great time on the water slide. Tori and Katherine focused on the Hulu Hoop contest. Tori got 2nd place in their round and Katherine got 3rd.

Seattle Storm and Allison Playing Soccer

It was a busy week. We attended the Seattle Storm game and Allison had her first soccer tournament. It was fun to see the Storm again after a year off. We miss Lauren Jackson who is playing with her Australian Olympic team. She plans to return after the Olympics. Allison’s first soccer tournament was this weekend. At this point, all of the feedback about standing around in the sun all weekend to watch your daughter play soccer hit home. We quickly realized that we needed to buy a canopy so we didn’t bake in the sun.

Allison played keeper for one half of the game. This made both Christine and I very nervous as they were playing older girls (7, 8, and 9 year olds). Allison did well despite their opponent’s overwhelming offense.

Sharon and Jamey Visit July 2012

Sharon and Jamey visited over the 4th of July. The girls had a great time with their aunt and uncle. Following tradition they made pies with Sharon and Jamey and took some long walks.

We decided to try out a walk around Bridle Trails in Kirkland. We walked through most of the park and stopped at the local Subway and Dairy Queen for lunch and dessert. Rosebud had a great time on the walk.

We also had Dim Sum with Pau Pau at the mall and dinner at her house.

2012 July 4th Parade

The Whitmers came over to join us in the Yarrow Point 4th of July parade. Katherine had her cast on so she couldn’t ride a bike or scooter in the parade. Allison decided to go the scooter route this year. Once again the highlights of the day were the candy thrown by the parade participants and snow cones. In the evening we went over to the Belfiore’s house to watch the Yarrow Point fireworks.

Sharon and Jamey arrived later that night.

Yarrow Point Pet Parade 2012

Katherine, Christine and Rosebud participated in the 2012 Yarrow Point Pet Parade. Rosebud won youngest contestant. Tori’s dog Teddy won best of show. The theme this year was the Summer Olympics. Rosebud, according to Christine was one of the most beautiful dogs there. Katherine dressed up Rosebud in a swimsuit and made an Olympic torch.
