Late Friday afternoon Danny and I set off for a weekend together. My mom (Grandma Stajgr) had come up the evening before and had taken Lyla home with her that morning. Grandpa and Grandma had offered to watch Lyla while Danny and I headed down to the river to have a little alone time together and celebrate our anniversary. Our original plan was to camp but after many calls to the state parks of choice and no success we reached out to my Grandparents (Great Grandma and Grandpa Stajgr). You see they have a boat house in Ridgefield on the Columbia. With the weather forecast being in the 90s we thought that would be a perfect place to spend our weekend and it was! To our surprise when we got there, there was a note that told Danny to call gramps...he wanted to let Danny know that he had permission to take out the boat. Now that might seem silly to you all reading this since we are both water babies and boaters from birth but this isn't just any boat it is a old wood criss craft. My grandpa's prized posession. Danny had helped him with the motor this winter and I think that is what sealed the deal. Either way it was a huge honor and what made our weekend. Saturday morning we got going pretty slowl...made breakfast...back up our bags...and got ready to head to the beach. We spent most of the afternoon sun bathing, drinking margaritas and playing in the water it was perfect. So perfect that we couldn't resist inviting our dear friends Katie and Damien for the night....
