June

We had some fun in June.  Kirks grandparents had their 50^th wedding anniversary, which means we got to have a big party.  Almost all of Kirks extended family came into town for the anniversary party, which rolled over in to a family reunion.  We were mostly all able to go out to Monterey for a couple days and enjoy the scenery. We went to the aquarium on Tuesday, and spent some time with Uncle Pete! (He’s only a few years older than Kirk so he’s much more of a friend then uncle)  Kirk and I were able to slip away to dinner, where we celebrated our anniversary, which was the day before.  We found a little Japanese restaurant in the bay and got to sit close to the water while we had dinner.

The next day everyone else headed home and made various stops, but Kirk really wanted to golf in Monterey, so off we headed.  Yes, I went too. I didn’t have much of a choice since Kirk and Petes tee time was before we had to check out of our hotel.  So while the boys were golfing, I got to spend about 6 hours on a golf cart reading and/or finding lost things while the boys golfed. It. Was. Freezing.  The back 9 was right on the water which was beautiful, but it was so windy.  Thankfully I had a long sleeve shirt, a sweater, and Kirks jacket.  

We also finished a project I’ve been working on.  I’d gotten really tired of not having a headboard, because our wall lacked a focal point.  So, Kirk went along with an idea I got from pinterest and helped me hang these… (Uhmmmm...please turn either your head or or computer, as my computer won't upload these the correct way....)

(I know they’re not all straight, but I’m still working on that..)

Oh yeah…and I did this
