Summer Fun

We have been having a lot of fun enjoy the summer sun.  We have been playing at the splash park, seeing friends after 20 years, enjoying snacks by the pool, building sand castles, playing in Lake Washington, oh and one of us climbed Mt. Rainier! 

Mukilteo Beach

Shelbi and I took the kids to Mukilteo Beach the other day and it was cold, windy and cloudy...the kids had a blast!  I love that they can make the best of anything.  Shelbi and I sipped our Starbucks and daydreamed about sunshine.

Spokane

The boys and I just got back from a quick trip to Spokane to see my parents.  We had some fun new adventures over there.  We rode the carousel, rode real ponies, and spent a lot of time at the splash park.  I even had time to fit in some shopping.

Happy Birthday Mady & Henry Banks

How many people (that aren't twins) get to share their birthday with their brother or sister?  Mady and Henry are two sweet kids of our dear friends that share a birthday.  Yesterday we went to Remlinger Farm in Carnation to celebrate Henry turning one and Mady turning four.  It was a beautiful day and the kids had so much fun!

Fourth of July

This Fourth of July we headed to the Bothell kids parade for the 4th year.  It wasn't quite the same without the Banks family, but we still had a great time. After the parade we went home for naps and to prep food for a bbq at the Trioux's.  When the kids woke up we went over for fun in the kiddy pool, water table, yummy food, drinks, cake pops and fireworks.  It was mellow, but a very fun and kid friendly 4th.
