Lydia's Birthday

We celebrated Lydia's birthday this past Saturday. She invited two of her friends to come over. Lydia opened her presents, then we had cake, then we went to a park, then we came back and had lunch. Good times!

Dungeness Pit, I mean Spit

What is a Spit anyways? A narrow piece of land sticking out into the water. The Dungeness Spit is the longest in the U.S. There is a lighthouse 5 miles out, but we didn't feel quite that energetic for a 10 mile hike with the Children. It's not a very good picture, but the spit is the part that sticks out near the top on the left (ok, more like the middle).

There is a short 1/2 mile hike from the parking lot down to the spit

Lydia is so excited

So am I!

Matt being happy... he liked watching Lydia running in the water

Yours truly

Matt playing with a stick. We thought that those sticks looked like snakes as they were all twisty like.

We found a little lean-to that someone had made. Lydia and I tried to hide from Sheila and Matt but I guess the huge gap gave us away.

Weeks Falls

I like water, especially waterfalls. Back in February we went to Weeks Falls. A nice little waterfall with some nice trails. Here's a couple of pictures of some water.

Me and Matt

So me and Matt were looking at pictures and were in a goofy mood. Our camera has a swivel lcd screen so we're able to see what we look like when we go to take the picture. Something like this:



So we had a bit of fun taking pictures of ourselves.

Sunday Evening at the Seattle Temple

One Sunday afternoon after we dropped Tosha off (Sheila's sister) we went to the Seattle temple since it was close by. We tried to take some nice family pictures but little minds sometimes have other ideas, if you know what I'm saying. We also ran into a couple of ducks which was a surprise.

Date Day

I can't remember the last time Sheila and I went on a date. Yesterday we got our chance. Sheila's sister lives an hour away now and she agreed to babysit our munchkins for us. We took a drive north west to Fort Ward State Park on Bainbridge Island. It was fun to hike, walk on the beach, skip rocks and look for shells.

Here are some pictures of our date.
