22nd Birthday Weekend..

The night before my birthday I went out with friends and the day after for my mom's 50th birthday which is the SAME day as my birthday... we surprised her with a ton of people at a house that's been built to look like a giant castle on the outside. It was directly across from the beach and had a private trail to get there. It was such a good weekend, we def. surprised the hell out of my mom and I got to bring along my three best friends. We went to Cannon Beach which is in Oregon along the coast, near Seaside! I recommend Cannon Beach House Rentals to anyone who is looking for a weekend along the PNW coast, it's nothing less than beautiful.

My June Playlist!

This is what I have been listening to lately, old and new!

LesbiCamping

I went camping with my best friends at a pretty secretive location and it was amazing. We ate and drank and spent quality time with each other because that's what the 5 of us really needed. It was worth every minute. I love my LesbiFamily so much (:

and it was paradise. 

My little brother Kyle went and joined the Marines! This is our last night with him so we needed to do alot of picture taking! He signed an 8 year contract which is super scary but everyone is super proud of him for it. We all need the structure. We are def. going to miss his spirit around and his sense of humor but this is such an amazing step into adulthood and for a 20 year old, he made a pretty great decision for his future. So, I am definitely proud of him. Congrats Kyle, I can't wait until this family is full of Military kids. We gotta make em proud! 

love you!

Drew's Hospital Stay

Breezi's brother Andrew got his leg amputated, if you want to know more about it... we created a blog for him
(click here > TEAM DREW)
... anywho. We had been at the hospital for a week from 8am to 8pm somedays, just waiting for him to recover from surgery. He's finally home! But these are some photos of our stay in the hospital last week.

Also, this first picture is creepy because I captured it while Drew and Arianna (his gf) were passed out, I couldn't help it... look how freaking adorable they are :)

Pacific Northwest Sunsets

I've been wanting to move away from Washington since the time I realized where I was living. I have wanted to live in Southern California since I was young, not only because my OBSESSION with Disney but also because my parents have taken me all over, and I fell in love. I really find Portland to be beautiful and liberal and that's really what I am looking for. I almost moved to Arizona back in 2009 but thankfully I didn't. Although Phoenix and Scottsdale were absolutely beautiful, I am glad I chose to stay. To much heat, to many spiders and I can't walk my pup without her having to have little booties on! I've thought about the East Coast, but in dead honesty... the natural disasters that happen on that side of this country terrify me. I love New York, I hope to stay there sometime for a good part of the summer. I want to travel to North and South Carolina with my parents and my grandparents but I don't think i'd ever live there. I've heard the beaches in Michigan are beautiful and I've been to Savannah but couldn't stand the humidity. I've only ever been to Texas once, and I didn't see anything beautiful about it but i've heard stories. Colorado looks amazing and I think sometime in the Winter I would like to travel through there and go skiing. Also, hiking looks like it would be challenging in Montana, but i'd love to do it. I've also heard nothing but good things about Nebraska, yet it's just another place I would like to visit. Moving is permanent, it freaks me out but I want to move so badly. I have lived her for 21 years, that's practically a quarter of my life in the same place. I know Washington well, and i've seen everything i've wanted to see. The only times I think I want to stay is when I see visions like the one I saw last night.... the sunsets in the Pacific Northwest are breathtaking. Mountain views and pink skies... I couldn't imagine not living where I do. I am torn.
