Naked Ride

One year, I hope to be in town and full of enough courage to do this ride. Portland does a great job of keeping itself weird. I adore it all.




Just A Kid From Akron

If we only get to go home to Akron every now and then...we sure picked the best week (in like, 52 years) to be there!




Bye Bye Bill

I was sad to catch this in the Ohio papers. If you haven't already - you should catch the documentary.

Cousins!

Such a fab visit in OHIO!
Cousin time is the best!

Did you know there are sharks in Ohio? Well, now you know...
No trip to OH is complete without the 2 main food groups: Stricklands and Swensons. 

We can always count on Birdie and BryGuy to lead hiking and bird watching adventures. 

Tentation

Every now and again I am tempted to reconsider my feelings about camping. For example, learning about these beautiful tents gets me curious...


Lily Love

As soon as I saw the job posted, I knew just the gal for the gig and I let them know. Sure enough Amsterdam Cycle Chic scooped sweet lily right up!

Happy Father's Day

We are about to board a plane to see my dad.

But we enjoyed spending most of the weekend with this dad. Coolest guy we know.



My Baby Boy is 8

I cannot believe that my 6/7/8 baby is EIGHT.

His bday fell on a Tuesday...so naturally we all took the day off and hit the mountain for some alpine lake SUP action.

Since we took the day off, we wanted to make the most of it...so we spent the morning up at the mountain, but then we returned to the city for some waterskiing. W declared that since he is now 8 he was ready to move to one ski. And so that is what he did....



The following weekend, we hosted his class for cupcakes and 5cent games at the nickel arcade in town...
And as if all of the above were not enough...WKF and his papa also boarded a train to Seattle to catch Argentina in the Copa America match. They couldn't pass up an opportunity to see Messi in action! Tickets to the game were the ultimate bday gift!
They trained to Seattle and back with some buddies!
Football match by train...we are keeping the euro life alive as much as we can...

Happy 8 to my favorite boy!

Go Cavs

I absolutely cannot believe that the kids and I will be flying to Cleveland during game 7.  We hate to miss the game!!! Win or lose, it will be great to be in Akron to feel it! Go Cavs! Go LBJ!

Check your mirrors

My weekend view is often something like this...

Confession #371

How is it already Monday morning? I'm craving Friday night vibes...cuz our Friday night vibe was so good.

We piled 6 adults into MC's  crazy old  new VW van, blasted some 90's hip hop pandora, and rolled all over town laughing.



So fun to check out the new besaws. You guys, 2 words: Chicken&Waffles. 


Their wallpaper give Imperial's wallpaper a run for its money. Je l'adore. Both places make me wanna pursue wallpaper in some way some day...
