Mama's been bad about keeping this blog up...It's been a fun summer together in NV in our new home. It feels like we've spent as much time on the road traveling to and from CA and other places as we have at our house!
Let's see if I can recap a few of the fun happenings!
June we headed up to Sunriver, OR for a Bastani Family Reunion. Sunriver is the town Corey grew up vacationing in with his family growing up so we've decided to make a week (maybe more) up there a summer tradition for our family too!
We rode horses, river rafted, biked all over, ate, ate some more (it IS a Bastani reunion after all!) and partied all night...well, may not partied all night but Carter screamed all-night almost every night leaving us exhausted.

July meant a couple trips over to Tahoe for some fun with friends and visits from our friends CA Jesse and Melissa, Erik, Tiff & Elliana and Bianca, Maya and Hannah! We showed them around our new digs and of course...more Lake!
At the end of July Mom went away for her first trip! She headed to Nashville with friends leaving Dad and Carter to fend for themselves for 4 days...spoiler alert...they did great.
August was and will always be a busy month in the Bruce house with Corey's, Carter's, Grandpa Bami's and Peanut's birthdays and Nicku and Corey's anniversary. There was a lot of traveling and nice, long trip back to the Bay Area for 9 days to see friends and take care of some work meetings.
September showed no signs of slowing down with 2 trips back to the Bay for Nicku and the start of the backyard! Progress is slow, but hopefully in a month we'll have a great yard to play in. Was buying an acre ambitious...you bet. Is landscaping a dirt back yard even WITH professionals an exhausting project...yes, yes it is!
Lastly Louie had surgery on his other hind ACL. Poor Lou. He's recovering well though and will be back in action just in time for the yard to thaw out in Spring.
