sassy girl

after 10 years, 4 states, 9 houses, two puppies, and a whole lotta love, sassy died.
she was found in the 7-11 parking lot my junior year of high school, i immediately fell in love with the fur bundle with a black tongue, and she rode home under my feet as i drove.
she came with me to college and spent many evenings on walks around portland whilst i talked.
she waited at the bottom of climbing crags, unless she could find her way to the top. even climbing one if the mood hit.
she would snow ski, ride in row boats, swim in even freezing rivers, and steal little girls sandwiches. all while holding a ball in her mouth.

you will be missed my sweet puppy.

goodbye

we are once again leaving ogden. seeing good friends and family was amazing, but it is time again to see rocks.

things were a bit hectic while we were here, as any visit home is, and thus, no pictures or commentary about it. it was mostly just frantic visits to everyone we love, and massive amounts of cleaning and laundry. (i love having an available washer and dryer)

so, hopefully you all haven't forgotten about this little blog, and will once again read and comment about adventures to come.

home

and in the vain attempt to change things up i dyed my hair dark.
