Williams Family Reunion 2012

This month we had a mini family reunion with the Williams Family.  Joe (my father in law) and his gf Nancy came to Washington from Az. and Kim and Alyja came from DC. Jordan came from Co. 
Wed. (5/23) Lonnie went and got Joe, Nancy, Kim and Alyja from the airport and they all stayed with us.
Thurs. (5/24) Rhionna (cousin) came and picked us up and took us to Eatonville to see cousin Val at the horse farm and Pioneer Farm. I had not been there in years and it was good to go back.
Fri. (5/25) we had a family dinner at the Olive Garden here in Puyallup. Joe, Nancy, Kim, Alyja, Martha, Jordan, Nick, Kayleigh, Alex, Lonnie and I all met and had a fun time laughing and catching up.
Sat. (5/26) Lonnie, Joe, Alex and Jordan all went golfing at Ft. Lewis and had a fun time.. Later that night we all went to Wendy's (cousin) house and a few drinks and some food and just visited with each other.
Sun. (5/27) We all met up at Rhionna and her husbands house for a BBQ down by the lake. Nick and his friend came and we roasted hot dogs over the fire and got to visit with family.
It was a great time... wish Kristian, Kristine and the kids could have been there from Tx. but maybe next time.

Great way to have Memorial Weekend.

Happy Mother's Day

Before the race

After the race

This Mother's Day we picked up the kids and went into Seattle to the Space Needle to be in the Color Run 2012. This is a 5k race through Seattle, every "k" they throw colored chalk at you as you run by. It took Lonnie, Alex, Kayleigh and I about an hour to walk it, Nick wanted to run it so it didnt take him that long. There were over 10,000 people there to walk/run/jog, it was so much fun and one of the best Mother's Days I have had !! Thanks so much for doing this with me. I love you all !!

Spring Fair :)

Lonnie and I went to the Puyallup Spring Fair today.. it was a perfect day to go.. sun was out and it was so hot that Lonnie got a sun burn. We had a lot of fun, it had been about 8 years since we went to a "real" fair... I think it was 2004 when we last went. We rode on three rides, played some game and won toys for the dogs and ate some really good fair food. I cant wait until Sept when the fair comes again !!

Ocean Shores

This Easter Lonnie and I took the dogs and we went to the Ocean.. it was a nice 2 hour drive to get there and the weather was wonderful.. 70s all day !!  When we got there.. we took the dogs on the beach for a walk.. they had a blast ! Mia was so funny !!  Lonnie helped a lady get unstuck in the sand.. *DO NOT DRIVE IN SOFT SAND...  YOU WILL GET STUCK !!!  We took the dogs back to the car, gave them some water and treats and headed to the horses.. that's right.. we went on a hour horse ride on the beach. It was alot of fun although my horse did not listen at all.. and really liked to gallop.. I will be sore for a few days for sure !!!  When we came back, we let the dogs play with the other dogs that were on the beach and then headed home... It was a great day and cant wait to do it again !! Happy Easter
