Seattle and Camano

 


(I stole some of these cute pics from my sister's blog post.) We met up with my family at the park. The boy cousins were excited to all be together for the first time since Mason was born.




All the girls
 
 
My brothers and my sister Kelsy who came up from California.


My sister Melanies's new house! I was mad I didn't get a good pic of Melanie...I have a few with her behind a camera and a cute video of her and Mason.  Anyway, I love her new house and we had a fun time there.

We did cousin camp at my brother Brian's house on Camano.  The kids had fun playing in this "quick sand" one morning when the tide was out.





Kelsy made them all the cutest t-shirts.  The back had their name and birth order number on it.

Andrew loves babies...especially this one!


Opening Ceremonies
Grandma was a great cheerleader during our kids vs parents soccer game. The kids beat us 4-1.

Hannah loves being a cooking helper and helped Brian make breakfast for everyone one morning.


I love and miss Washington, especially at summertime





Ethan and Hannah dreamed about eating the wild blackberries the whole way there.  Unfortunately we were a few weeks too early and there were only a few ripe ones. The sweet ripe ones are nothing like the ones at the grocery store.  At least they got a few.

Taking the boat out crabbing.  The crabs were delicious!


Pie face :)


Andrew looked at me hopefully one day and said "mom, your stomach is looking kind of big". I had to tell him the sad news that it was not because there was a baby in there and he was very disappointed. :)

Closing ceremonies



Thanks Kels for the adorable picture

We tried to get a good group pic with grandpa...but it was a little too late at the end of a long fun day.  The younger half is not having it.

My brother's neighborhood has a big 4th of July party with lots of fireworks



Thanks Uncle Chris and Uncle Brian for helping out my kids, they had a great time!


It was so fun to see friends.

I wanted to go to Karkeek park while we were in Seattle because it is my favorite.  Eliza was grateful (as were the rest of us) that Grandpa joined us.



Another awesome day at the park with friends.  We miss everyone!!
 

I loved these two getting some time together

On our last day we stopped at GG and Papas but I'm so sad I didn't get a picture of them.



Goodbye Seattle and family and friends, we had a great trip!
