Track Town, U.S.A.

Yesterday, Dassow Daddy got to go to the Track National Championships in Eugene.  He couldn't believe how fast the runners were.

A nice day at Hayward Field.

Nick Symmonds, a Willamette alum like Dassow Daddy and Mommy, winning his race.

When Dassow Daddy returned home, he got to eat spinach and feta quesadillas and play with his baby.

Thanks for the cute summer dress, Nana and Papa Dassow!

Dassow Mommy got to visit with her high school friends Annabelle and Eva.  Then, Katey and Kayla came by for a surprise visit.  Pretty good day.

Today was humid, which is rare for Oregon.  We went for a walk, I taught, and we played with our super-smiley girl.  She was a super happy baby today -- probably because she let Dassow Mommy get a six hour stretch of sleep!

Practicing her martial arts skills.

The outfit Evelynd wore today was the first gift I opened at my first baby shower.  It was from Arel Grimshaw.  Later in the shower, I opened Kendell Prestwich's gift.  She said I didn't need to open it -- we'd already seen it.  Turns out it was this same outfit, but luckily in a different size, so Evelynd will get to wear this again when she's about a year old.  Yay!

FYI, Dassow Daddy and Mommy have a bunch of bar exam essays to grade in the next week.  I will try to post, but no guarantees.  Sometimes we don't even get to sleep and we've never had a baby while trying to grade before.  We'll see how it goes!
