Busy Summer

We've had such a wonderfully busy summer!

Will's brother and sister graduated from high school, which always includes fun family activities:

There was a family prom,

a zoo visit,

a fishing trip,

olympic games, a birthday party, and lots of park time!

Everyone in the household has managed to keep up the rigorous running schedule in preparation for the big runs ahead.

We've even managed to keep up with pool time and berry picking.


We were also blessed to have a visit from Suzanne's mom, which included more fun family activities:

A trip to the Japanese Gardens,

a trip to the beach,



and lots of fun and memories made.


We're still on schedule to run our half marathon on August 16th. We can't hardly wait for it to get here. Probably not for the race itself but because Suzanne's Dad, sister and her family will be visiting from New Mexico.

Hope everyone is doing awesome,
The Schwisow's

P.S. It's not an uncommon practice to have a home in Oregon without an air conditioner. Well, you wouldn't hear of that in New Mexico. We happened to be some of those common folk who have purchased our new home with no AC and we survived the sweltering temperatures of 106.
