Hanging with the Davii

Daniel passed his probationary test!!! After a year-long saga of being a probationary firefighter with academy, monthly tests, training on the weekends, and hours and hours in the books, it all ended with his final written and practical test. This means most importantly no more studying, but also that he "belongs" to Scappoose and can't be fired, gets a raise, and gets firefighter on his badge. I'm so proud of him and very excited to have him back :-D

Directly following we had five days off together. We had entertained the thought of going to Squamish or doing some other long climbing trip but instead decided to stay home. We were soooo tired and had so many things that had been neglected around the house and Portland. Soooo we stayed in town, we could tell that we neeeded it when we slept in until 3pm the next day.

My Men
On Saturday we went to a park in Vancouver with Nathan and Pam and AJ. Nate wanted to try out his wetsuit before the Blue Lake Triathlon he was going to do. They were babysitting their friends' yellow lab DJ so it was quite the circus with three dogs. Anastasia was super-cute wearing her little summer outfit that her Aunt Sasha had sent over from Boise!
