How ridiculous...

...is it that I havent blogged since April? Yeah, I owe John Q Public a decent post. I'll start by wishing all a happy 4th and all other holidays ive missed in between! Life is succulent sweet up in Sandpoint now. Once the snow finally melted(which was just about a month ago), we were able to start enjoying some sun and some much need BBQ! It's funny b/c once the sun came out the first weekend, the whole town came out of hibernation!

We had a great Independence Day party. We went to a friend of ours that has a lake house on lake Pend O'reille. I was in charge of entertainment so I decided on a giant slip and slide. It ended up being 100 long down a huge hill and into the lake. It was AWESOME! We should have a YouTube video soon with all the coverage. After everyone had their burger and sliding fill, we setup and watched the fireworks over the lake. Good times.

Some recent events worth noting:
Erin and I have been able to get on the lake with some friends lately... such an awesome place! We went fishing too and Erin reeled the biggest fish, but unfortunately, it didnt make it in the boat... line broke! We had a blowout Garage Sale and it rocked the block! I have now established myself as the dignified burger maker of the town(it's all about seasoning). We did some construction in the house.. took out a floating closet and put in a new desk and just yesterday, I built a bench. It was my first carpentry work... I just found a picture of a simple bench i liked,wrote down some numbers, and went to the Home Depot. turned out alright. Lastly, I auditioned for the local Theatre and apparently did very well and I am guaranteed some major roles in some upcoming plays this fall!

Dewee Moment:
So Dewee has been recently devoting his time to exploring the edges of the property and even going so far as to crossing the street and hiding under the big blue van that never moves! He also likes to stir up trouble with the local Magpies. Quite often now, I'll here the magpies squawking up a storm out on the powerlines and when I go to investigate the reasoning, it's always Dewee... meowing back at them and taunting them. One even swooped down at him and he jumped to swat it... very entertaining!
