CA Santa Monica Pier

Day 2: After the horrible anxiety ridden drive (H and I do not like CA freeway driving) to Santa Monia Pier, we had a lot of fun. We first went down to the beach and then walked on the pier and checked out the cute shops. Then we got some yummy food as we listened to this cool guy play guitar and sing classic rock, including Pink Floyd. As we were eating, we had a guy doing yoga behind us, which was quite awkward in a way. Had a blast though!

Wearing my new shirt I got from the Bow-Wow fair.

I was so excited to see a real lifeguard tower like on Baywatch.

Swingin!

Yummy vegan corn dog!

CA Bow Wows Pet Fair

Heather and I drove down to California to visit Jackie. The day after we arrived we went to Bow-Wows and Meows pet fair. It was so fun. We met most of Jackies classmates and her teacher. It was super fun seeing all of the different dogs there. I was on the lookout for a chug because I missed Sookie already, ha ha. We finally found one at the very end as we were walking back to the car. The people were so happy when I asked if their dog was a chug, it was cute! I also saw a Golden that looked just like the Big Guy, so I had to pet him, it was hard though, and I almost started crying. Jackie entered the look like your dog contest, and Heather entered the smallest dog contest, they didn't win though, but it was pretty cool watching them prance around!

Waiting for the contests to start

H took forever walking Ralph because everyone wanted to pet him. The announcer said, "looks like Ralph is signing autographs".

The lady on the left of this picture won the look like your dog category.

Sweet Sookie

She's so sweet when she sleeps!

Oktoberfest

We went to Oktoberfest in Mt. Angel today with Jack, Sharon and Heather. Most of the time was spent looking at the car show....which was cool for the first 5 minutes, ha ha.

So pretty!

At the end of the car show.

When Sharon was younger she loved this store so John snapped a pic.

The hat!

Garden with Sookers

Jess and I went to get some fresh veggies from the Evans garden and decided to take Sookie with us. She is very lonely since Noah passed.

It was super hot, so was cooling off in the shade.

Checking to see if the corn was ready.

McMinnville and Rissa selfies

After Haydens party, we took a drive out to where I used to live. There is a really old cemetery out that way, so we stopped there. When I was younger my friends and I used to walk over to it and loved scaring ourselves. Rissa took some pictures of us, and then as I was going through my pictures I found a bunch of 'Rissa Selfies'. She has learned this from her mom.

So sweet

Rissa snapped this one.

What???

Haydens Birthday Party

Jess and I took Rissa to McMinnville for Hayden's birthday party. It was at a really nice park.....

Jess had to do selfies so I would find them later :)

Looks like Hayden can't wait to eat that cake!
