The Spirit of Boise Air Balloons ~ Boise, Idaho

While on our way to Idaho Falls over Labor Day weekend we stopped in to visit my sister and her family.  We got to go to the hot air balloon event with them, we had a great time!  I literally had just bought the new camera and this was the first time out.  Loved the results! 

Leavenworth, WA

This little German town was absolutely beautiful!  I am ashamed to say we have lived in Washington for 3 years now and have never been here.  We are looking forward to going this winter to see the town in it's true Christmas spirit.  So fun! 

Bresemann Forest ~ Spanaway, WA

This was one of the first places we explored upon moving here.  Yes, I know it's been like 4 months but I am slowly and surely getting caught back up. 

Emerald Downs Horse Races - Auburn WA

I can't wait to take my new camera to the races!  If you have never been to the horse races I definitely recommend you add it to your bucket list.  We had a blast, could have spent the whole day there. 

Manito Park Nishinomiya Japanese Garden

I got a new camera last week and I am so excited to post the pictures that I took with it, but I promised myself that I first had to catch up on the past three months!  AAAHHH better get to business. 
The day after I graduated we took the family to the Spokane Japanese Gardens, it was so beautiful, but I have to give the picture credit to Melvin this time.
