Rowan's First Birthday

On Rowan's first birthday we decided to go camping with some friends at Silver Falls—one of our favorite car-camping sites. As it was in late February and cold, we rented a couple of cabins, a couple of warm, toasty cabins. 

Even now, as I write this some distance from the occasion (it is now July 8), I have forgotten some of the most important features of the trip. 

1. We had a dog! I almost forgot about this evil little beast (evil because it was so cute and so mischievous). Obi was his name (after Obi Wan, of course) and Rowan just loved him. London, not so much, but Rowan sure did. We don't have that dog anymore. He went back to the breeder.
2. I left my new Sigg coffee mug there. Seriously, I just got it!  

But it was a blast! Hardly anyone was there so the boys really got to have a lot of fun (loud, crazy fun).
