This summer, I got to spend a month in The Netherlands with my best friend from college! We went to see the home of Hieronymus Bosch, a Dutch painter famous for his Garden of Earthly Delights painting. I also work part time as a runner at all the shows here in Bend during the summer. Basically, I am an assistant for the musicians that come through. My best concert ever was ZZ Top! I got to spend two really fun days with Billy Gibbons. I also worked with: Luke Bryan, Violent Femmes, My Morning Jacket, The Chicks, Sublime, Incubus, Sarah McLachlan, Barenaked Ladies, Norah Jones, Blues Traveler, Train, and so many more... Sometimes I take them around town to do fun things, and sometimes I pick up their prescription medicines. It's super fun and a great way to see tons of free concerts too!

Sold our Oregon Home in June and became full time Texans. Never Cowboys fans though, just to clear up that rumor.

I spent most of my summer at pow wows dancing (mostly in Washington this year) and having fun with my pow wow family. We were home about 1 or 2 days a week and the rest were spent on the road and at the pow wow. I wouldn't trade this life for any other.

I have never grown sunflowers before, so this has been the BEST summer surprise! They are amazing, and I have had so much fun watching them grow and taking ALL the pictures. My pumpkins are starting to grow too, which has attracted the most fun honey bees!

We made a HUGE change this summer, we put our house on the market and packed up for a road trip to our new home in Florida! Jack met Buccee! We still have many things to figure out but we have learned patience, grace and 200 sq feet living quarters is TIGHT.
