Home Life

So I've been home for 3 weeks-ish and it's actually been pretty good. It's been good this time around because I have a clear vision of the next few months. And I have a lot of fun things planned. So that's made me pretty optimistic.

The first week I was home, I brought Morgan home with me. We hung out in Spokane for a few days, and took a 2-day journey to Seattle. While we were there, we went to Pike Place Market and to the aquarium! It was way cool because we got to touch a lot of really cool sea-life. :) It was also cool because we got to hang out with my bro, Shon, for a little bit because he lives over there now. And he was kind enough to let us crash at his house. :) It was his birthday, so that was way fun to be there. That night we went to see The Dark Knight, which is just amazing.

^ Morgan touching some.. sea urchins... I believe.

Then while in Spokane, we went to Riverfront Park, and Morgan met the garbage-eating goat! She was so thrilled! Just look at her face! >

We had no knives, so we used the lid of the tupperware. Krystine joined us for lunch!

This past weekend, Dayton, Ashley, and I traveled to the west coast to see the Olympic National Rainforest. And Shon came with us, too! It was really neat- you drove through the forest, and there was a look-out spot at the top, where you could look out at the mountains. Washington is beautiful.

Then we went to this River that had a lot of really pretty wildlife. The kind that you'd only be able to see on that side

of the state.

Ever since I took a horse-back riding class in college, where we observed nature a lot, moss covering the trees has always been one of my favorite things in nature. These trees just look cool, plus they're totally covered in moss. >
