Tuckered Out
Tired after a long day of meeting new people at her party, Josie takes a breather in the backyard.
Family Reunion
Josie met up with her sister Maisy today. They haven't seen each other in over two months. Maisy was recently adopted by one of Carley's coworkers who lives down in Springfield. Her family brought her up for the BBQ so that she and Josie could reconnect.
They recognized each other immediately, and then spent the next three hours chasing each other all over the house and yard.
They ran and played until they both collapsed on the kitchen floor in similar poses.
We will have to arrange another play date soon!
Josie Cupcakes
Our neighbor Denise, who also spends time with Josie several days a week while we are at work, made these amazing cupcakes for Josie's BBQ. She took all of the pictures and stamped the backs with cute sayings.
Thank you, Denise! You are simply amazing!

Josie's BBQ
We had a BBQ today to officially welcome Josie to the family. People came from down the street and as far away as Madras and Seattle to help us celebrate. We had a great turn out. Everyone brought something to share, and we managed to keep cool despite the heat.
Josie enjoyed all of the extra attention and enjoyed meeting everyone. Especially the babies! Here she gives 7 month old Jackson kisses.
Thanks to everyone who made it. We had a wonderful time!

No Dogs Allowed
Although Josie wanted to participate in the Madras Relay for Life and help honor Grandma Irene by walking laps around the track, the event and grounds banned all canines. Mom and dad had to take turns being with her in the truck and on the other side of the fence.

Stuck!
Josie gets stuck in a chair trying to play with Millie.
Millie continues to remain unamused with all this puppy nonsense.

Fourth in Newport
We decided to celebrate the Fourth of July by taking Josie to the beach for the first time. It was supposed to be in the upper 80s in the Willamette Valley today, and nearly 70F at the coast, so we decided this would be the perfect opportunity.
When we arrived in Newport, it was sunny and beautiful...lots of blue sky, but just a tad bit windy. We should have packed our kite...and coats. We made the best of it though, and introduced Josie to sand and sea foam and salt water.
She wasn't too sure about getting in the water...the ocean is a bit brisk up here even in the summer time. But she enjoyed walking on the sand and sniffing seaweed and the various dead things that washed ashore. Good times.
We attempted to take a family portrait or two before the battery in our camera died (yes, forgot to pack the spare too), but we're still working on how to sit still for the camera. Next time.
