In my last post I expressed my excitement over summer coming ... well, it has come and gone! And it was marvelous. As I scanned through the photos I took over the last few months I realized we got to do quite a lot. Here's a recap!
We enjoyed our second time at Lake Wilderness's 4th of July festivities.
My mom and I drove (in her mini cooper, Lord help us) to the North Cascades one weekend.
We also stopped by Deception Pass.
Last summer we drove to Bothell in search of a blackberry farm ... haha! They grow wild everywhere (and are actually invasive). So we had our fill of them this summer. I also figured out what huckleberries look like. They are tart, yummy things.
Blueberry picking of course.
We bought an inflatable boat! Here's Evey on Lake Wilderness.
The evening sky. This was after 9PM!
We went fishing for Zach's birthday, his first fishing trip! Poor fishies ...
Evey participated in her first play, The Jungle Book. She thoroughly enjoyed doing it!
We found this little guy outside our house.
We visited the Goonies house, and then watched the movie with Evey!
We discovered the beautiful Northwest Trek Wildlife Park. Grizzly bear!
I found a rock jumping place, woo hoo!
Jeff and I stayed up at Crystal Mountain and got to enjoy this view for our anniversary.
And I got my first tattoo for our anniversary, too!!
Visited Mt. Rainier with cousin Amelia. She just moved here as well, from San Francisco!
These little fellas.
Rope swing on a weekend trip to the Vancouver area!
Amelia and Evey in two of the three inner tubes we bought when I discovered we could float on a nearby river!!
The Washington State Fair.
Playing in the neighborhood. Love the sky against the trees when it's that color.
Walking Harley on the Cedar River Trail.
Nothing like a nap in the shade with Grandma on a sunny summer afternoon.
Onward we go into Autumn! Maybe I'll post again before Winter arrives ...
