Our sweet little pine tree at the end of the Esplanade couldn’t hold up to the recent wind storm. Hope all your landscape is intact. The tree removal was orchestrated by your friendly, neighborhood HOA. Welcome To the Neighborhood Lew Thayer and Mary Kate Thayer are new residents of 1001 Sunset Way, along with their daughter Kathryn. Lew is from the Bellevue area while Mary Kate was primarily raised in Indiana until moving to Seattle prior to high school. Lew works for a family office investment management company in Seattle. Mary Kate is an orthopedic hand surgeon on the Eastside. They are both excited to now call the Vuecrest Community home. They also wanted Vuecrest to know that if they have dogs and are walking by 1001 Sunset Way to be on the lookout for a toddler girl who loves dogs and will surely run up to give your dog a hug!

In the meantime, I’ll share with you what a 140 pound Bull Mastiff looks like when he thinks he’s a lap dog. “Frank” is our oldest daughter’s dog and was our first grand dog. Yes, Bull Mastiff’s are slobbery, huge, clumsy, and completely loveable. He’s often a part of our Vuecrest life.
