Every Front Yard Needs a Bike Jump

Shane missed Whistler so he attempted his own bike park- IN THE FRONT YARD! Don't use the .50 acre available behind the fence with hills, sticks, trees, etc that we own...no, lets use the front yard. At least the boys enjoy it and stay out of the house :)

Slip N Slide Fun

On a very hot afternoon in July we headed to Camano Island for our cousin, Travis', graduation party! We were told to bring the kids suits - not sure why - but we soon found the slip N slide set up! Immediately the clothes were off (we felt the suits were necessary with extended family watching their naked little booties) and the non stop sliding was happening. They had a great time and even slept on the way home. Win win for everyone.

More Festivities at Diana and Duane's

of course we had wine

preparing the fireworks

We continued our busy 4th of July weekend at Diana and Duane's for the BBQ, games and fireworks. Unfortunately I was too busy staying warm to get pictures of the fireworks but Duane (and his helper, Shane) put on an amazing show! Thank you Diana and Duane for inviting us over.
