Labor Day

Okay, I'm still trying to figure this blog thing out and I'm working on posting pictures on my posts. Let's just say, I haven't figured it out yet, so we'll just have to live with my stories for now...

So, Justin and I had a very fun Labor Day weekend. Let's see, on Saturday, I worked and Justin worked on a friend's car, so that day wasn't so much fun. On Sunday, Justin and I went (with Justin's mom Barb and his dad Chuck) to my mom's boyfriend's house. His name is Jeff (is this making any sense)???? Anyways, Jeff lives out in Estacada and we had a BBQ. I'm not a salmon fan at all, but let me tell you guys, that guy can BBQ some mean salmon!!! He put this marinade over the top called "Jamaca Mistake" and it made it so good! I was shocked! We also grilled hamburgers and had a bunch of other food that we all brought over. After that, we all walked down to the lake (a dammed up area of the Clackamas river that they consider a lake I guess) and hiked on some trails. It was a really great time....well...except for the fact that my mom had fallen the day before on roller skates and fractured her wrist and possible her tail bone. I felt so bad for her! Her arm was all wrapped up and in a sling. I guess they have to keep it that way until the swelling goes down and then they can cast it. I guess she's in quite a bit of pain, and her pain meds make her feel sick.. No fun... She was a trooper though and hung in there!
Monday, Justin and I went to Cannon Beach. That was a GREAT trip! It was beautiful there all day and we took Chloe. She loves to run on the sand and get her feet wet in the ocean! She's the most funny dog I think I've ever met. We had to keep her on a leash though because it was VERY crowded on the beach! It took us over 2 1/2 hours to get home because there was so many people coming home at that time too and traffic was horrible!! It was okay though. We had a great time anyways and we were sad to see Tuesday come.
I think that's about all for now. I swear I'm going to get the posting pictures thing figured out and then you can see the pictures as you are reading my stories!
