P&K's 2 years and Jessica's Bday Celebration!

After one STRESSFUL week, and almost quitting my job, my boss gave me Saturday off. So, I took advantage of that and drove home on Friday night with Paul to spend some time over there. On Saturday, March 8th, Paul and I celebrated two years of being together! So, of course we journeyed over to Ruston Way on the Tacoma waterfront (where we had our first date). We brought Mango along for the day, and we all just had a great time! We first stopped by the Ram and ordered some lunch to go and ate on the beach, letting Mango chase the waves. After we were done there we drove to the Point Defiance area and went hiking in the forest and walked along the beach. After becoming exhausted we drove back home (staying on the west side, not going back to school) and had dinner at my parent's place to celebrate Jessica's birthday! I can't believe my sis is 25!!! We had a great time; it was Mom, Dad, Jess, Tanner, Paul, and Me.

(The pictures are all in a random order. I am still trying to learn this program, they uploaded in the wrong order.)

A Few Days in One

I just wanted a picture, but she just wanted my hair...thought this picture turned out funny Mom, your favorite toy has died...yet, she still loves it!

Us girls The other night I was up really late working on a project out in the living room and Mango kept me company the whole time! Then I looked up at her and she was sound asleep! SO CUTE!
Mango has become very fond of sticks lately. Everytime we have to come inside from being outside, we stand by the door for a few minutes fighting because she wants to bring a stick inside and I wont let her. Today she found a BIG stick and loved it!!
Caught her trying to carry it!
She found a little part on it that she could hold onto :)
