We got up today, had a nice 'big breakfast' (that means we ate eggs), and then we took Brenna and Ty to Chambers Lake, which is just up the road from our house. This was Ty's first exposure to water other than rain. It was typical puppy -- trying to swim with his head straight up and splashing like crazy. We got some video as well as some still photos (I'll post those later when I download the camera). He really liked it, but then he is a Lab. Afterward we all went for a walk on the Chehalis Northwest Trail. It was a gorgeous day today -- totally blue sky and sunny and warm. Perfect.
Tonight we went to our friends Susan and Brian's for dinner. It was mega-yummy. They made this really delicious chicken and mushroom lasagna. We brought a salad. There was Italian balsamic vinegar and olive oil that they brought back from their trip to Italy in January for bread dipping. Amazingly good balsamic vinegar, and olive oil, too. Very fruity. Brian also made pepper jelly with goat cheese crackers. Yum. Nice contrast to the oil and vinegar. For dessert we had pomegranate sorbet with chocolate port. An amazing evening. Lots of fun and laughter.
We took their dogs, Marcy and Bella, pieces of Brenna's birthday cake. They loved it! Brian says Marcy can be a little picky about eating (she's 14 years old), so it was great when she wolfed it down. Yea.
And that's it for tonight.
