In June, as part of our week long Northwest Tour, we attended Paige's college graduation in Eugene, Oregon. Paige graduated magna cum laude with a degree in Psychology and a minor in Spanish. We're so proud of Paige and can't wait to see what endeavors she tackles next.
It was our first time in Eugene. Eugene was very pretty and we had a great time seeing some of Paige's favorite places (McMinamins, the Excelsior, Glenwood), seeing where she lives (her room was decorated very nice but it has literally been months since the front yard grass was trimmed ... ah, college), meeting more of her friends and visiting with the ones we already knew. After the graduation ceremonies we celebrated Paige and her friend Katie at a fun party at Katie's house.
Another highlight of the weekend for me was the wonderful family dinner (plus Paige's dear roomie, Natalie) we had the the Excelsior during which Lucy managed to dump a full glass of ice water in David's lap and also reached across the table, grabbed his filet mignon right from his plate and started chowing down. Have a couple of glasses of wine and a baby at a fancy restaurant is a great source of entertainment.
Here are some fun photos from the weekend.

| Lucy really liked this very realistic toy truck. It had a trailer and horses as well, which she also found amusing. |
