Here’s what else we were up to during the month of July:

Jonathan hiked Mt. Si and watched the sunrise.

We pet sat our neighbor’s guinea pigs, Salt and Pepper. They were cute, but messy.

There was back yard sprinkler fun

And swimming lessons

Reading

And lots of park-hopping

Also lots of bike rides

Playing in the sandbox

Know how everyone hates going to the DOL? Next time you’re there, just be glad you’re not there with three young children in tow. I will admit, they were very well behaved (until the last minute or two), and I was fortunate to arrive when I did. Shortly after we got there, at least a dozen more people showed up. Whew!

We had lots of cute bird visitors this summer

There were playdates and water balloon fights    

Some monkey business in the tree house

Makes for tired boys

You can barely see him, but right in the middle is our baby bunny who was born this summer. We saw him almost every day, and enjoyed watching him grow. 

Our good friends, Jen, Oliver, Bjorn & Elina visited us one more time before they left for two years in Singapore. Sniff.

This is a science project the boys did with M&M’s. When placed in water, the “M” floats off the candy.

Typical

Visit with Auntie Ashleigh =  good excuse to go to Red Mill for burgers

And also to the Pacific Science Center. Our boys are scared of the butterflies!

The highlight: the silly mirrors
