wedded bliss...

Here we are enjoying the party at Brandon (Scotty's brother's wife's brother) and Kayla's wedding. We will miss you guys in LA.

rafting in october

Before the rain started we took one last rafting trip...in October, these are the brave souls that braved the icy waters...okay it wasn't that cold.

I have no idea what Scotty's boat is doing.
Mr and Mrs Rafting Guide.
and SPLASH.

climbing with friends...

We spent the weekend climbing over at Smith Rock.

Our climbing party: Amanda (Crystal's high school buddy), Crystal, Scotty and Joei.
Scotty leading a 5.10b, Amanda is belaying.
Amanda on the same 5.10b, she looks like she belongs in a calendar.

Joei and Crystal waiting their turn.
A stunning sunset from our camp site at Skull Hollow.

weird family

We have been blessed with a wonderful family that actually likes hanging out together. We spend the last weekend of August all together at the Oregon coast.
Sisters...the Kelley girls.The maiden voyage of the Kelley boy's boat didn't go too well; Scotty is holding the boat where it drifted into the rocks.
Let the Kelley Sand games begin, officiated by Grandpa.Karen and her sad face.
Cute couples on the beach...

3 years today

Three years ago today, we promised to be roomates for the rest of our lives. So far so good.

We went backpacking at Pamelia Lake with some of our friends from Dox.
Just walking.Three men, one map...wait isn't that a trail sign? Hmmm.

The happy couple.We like to party.

Mary's Peak

Kaitlynn decided it would be cool to hike up to the top of Mary's Peak. Crystal was an innocent bystander that got tricked into going along. ..okay that's not true, she was a willing participant.It took us about 3 hours to get to the top of this 4,097 foot beauty, but the view and the sense of accomplishment was worth every minute.
Joei didn't think so though.Aw, girl bonding time.

day of independence, happy

Ah... observed holidays! We took advantage of the days off and headed towards the hills...Jefferson Wilderness to be specific. This was our first backpacking of the season.

Scotty reading up on survival skills.

Joei had a hard day of hiking.

We camped near this meadow the second night. It is always a weird feeling to walk from a dense forrest of Douglas Firs and Pines into a wide open meadow.

We built this shelter to practice, maybe next time we will spend the night in it.

Scotty is good at outdoor stuff.

Crystal likes taking pictures of stuff.
