Moira turns 20!

On July 21, the Meekins and Sullivan crew threw a surprise party for Moira's 20th birthday at our new place! Susan, Tim, and Sterling all flew in to Boston for the big night. Moira came down for a recruiting open house and had no idea that everyone was in town! We grilled up some of the salmon that Carey caught. What a great surprise...the picture says it all! It was a fun evening with everyone in town.

Sauvie Island Flat Half

Go, go, go!! As part of my training for running the Portland Marathon, October 1st, I'm running two half-marathons this summer. The first was on the 4th of July on beautiful Sauvie Island, just NW of Portland. http://www.sauvieisland.org/ My finishing time was 2 hours 32 minutes, which I was very happy with! Getting ready for the next one, in Champoeg Park http://www.oregonstateparks.org/park_113.php

Welcome

This is a blog for all the "Meekins kids" and grandkids to keep in touch with pictures, videos, and stories about what's new. Write me an email and I'll set it up so you can publish to this blog. To kick it off, I'm attaching a picture of the 55-lb king salmon that Carey caught on the 4th of July!
