The next generation Coug

Don't think for a minute I haven't started loosely planning Lily's first Moms Weekend at Wazzu in 2031. Crazy Auntie Kate and her mom, reliving the glory days and pointing out every nook and cranny of Pullman where memories were made. Gosh I hope she chooses WSU. 

Photos at Casa de Lagreid, prior to the Cougs' "home opener" in Seattle, Thursday, Aug. 28.

June highlights before September is over

This is how I roll right now. Scrolling through my phone to find the highlights of the month, which was actually about four months ago now. But that's just how this is going to be until the rain keeps me inside and at my desk from fall into eternity...or at least next July.

Lake town living.

Not everyone can pull off red, but Whitney made it look easy graduating from college. 

Moonlighting as a home decorator...something I am most definitely not! 

Meeting the parents. Our dog's parents, that is. 

Life with Lily in Sunriver. 

Senor Lagreid's triathlete serenade.

There will be one more in this photo next June. 

And we'll have our own dog, not just our goddog.

Besties with baby.

The whole motley crew.

Falling behind on summer

Fall is creeping in on me, and I'm not ready. I am so behind on this here blog. But when am I not? Thought I'd toss up a few pics from Labor Day weekend in the one and only Sunriver. We hit Central Oregon in June, July, and August this year--quite a treat. I didn't take a single pic, but Taylor's dad snapped these: Mirror Lake hike (note: I'm such a weenie...wearing a down jacket after sitting by the lake at the top of the hike...it was actually quite rainy that day, which did nothing to enhance my summer tan!) and the parking lot of one of many brewery stops. Lucky for us, we have a local-yokel in the family now, with Whitney living it up in Bend.

3/4 of the Bethell fam. I guess you can kind of see Jason in the shadows. ;)
