What an amazing week.

Conference on inner healing lead by Dr. Bruce Thompson and his wife Barbara.
Lovely couple.  I hope my future hubby and I will have a love like theirs.

Wild Waves twice!  Fun, fun fun!!!

Rainiers baseball game today.  Good food.  All free - except the cotton candy...

"You are very precious, and priceless, and greatly loved by God, your Father."

What a blessing this weekend has been for me.
Monday and Tuesday paid holiday, no work.

Yesterday, Doug and I hung out with his friend/co-worker, his girlfriend Sunny, and Cilly.
Had dinner at the Harmon Brewery ($3 steak and fries) and fired up the bowling lanes with strikes and spares.  Then, we hit Starbucks and relaxed on a table outside as we talked.  Lots of fun...

For the fourth, we all had "club digs" (hot link with grilled onions and cream chesse) at Point Defiance with HJ, Becky, and Jane, and Doug's friend Woojin and his fiance met up with later.  Played frisbee and chilled in the sun.

Afterward, some of us walked down to the Tacoma waterfront to look at booths and reserved a table at the Ram.  Prime location for the fireworks later in the evening.
We had dinner there with Lee and Young, who gratefully reserved the table for us.  Thanks guys!

The hike up the hill to our car was so much fun...yes...my workout for the year.
Until next year!

yummy food + so-so weather (rain with sunshine) + good friends (old, new, and newer) = GOOD TIMES

Today, I experienced the Taste of Tacoma for the first time.
Surprising...yes...I know.  Especially considering I'm a native of Tacoma.

But more than that...I ran into a great old friend from my Baker Bulldog days.
My best friend from middle school was there with her hubby and they are currently 4 months pregnant.  Congratulations!
I haven't seen her since high school...and I think about her all the time.
No contact info or anything.  Yet, low and behold...there she is!
I love you Nerisa!

Saw many, many other people.  Anna Park and her husband with her in-laws; Kyong C. with her family; etc.

awesome weather + yummy food + old friends + new friends = GOOD TIMES
