Here’s the rest of what we up to in August:

It only took 21 years for us to decide to take my wedding dress out of the box! We decided to let Layla try it on, which she loved!

Okay, I had to try it back on too!

Layla, in her pretty new dress and boots.

Sleepover with Savannah

At the beginning of August we joined our good friends, the Estes, at Lake Chelan. Their sons are good buddies with Kieron and Silas. We all had a great time!

Daisy & Phoebe, matching dogs!

We rented a pontoon boat one afternoon and took the kids tubing

   

The guys did some cliff jumping
      
  

Kieron and Silas went to Boy Scout Camp at the end of July. This year it was at Camp Parsons, on the Olympic Peninsula.

We finally went to Seafair this year! We took Layla, Avery and his girlfriend, Erika, to Bainbridge Island for a night and then came back early the next day and floated in Union Bay. We weren’t near the log boom, but we still saw plenty of activity and had a ton of fun!

The previous day, bound for Eagle Harbor

Jonathan, Phoebe and I woke up early to head back

Going to Lake Washington

We played there all afternoon

Heading back through the cut – it was a little busy and we witnessed a near-boat accident! They were very foolish/lucky!

“Whew! We made it through!”

“Let’s go home!”

Here’s what we were up to in July. We invited friends, the Estes & the Andersens to play with us at Andrew’s Bay.

Hudson, Kieron, Layla, Vivian, Silas & Landry

We took the Estes back to Seward Park & headed back to the marina with the Andersens.

Layla’s good friend, Evengeline, moved to Colorado     

Layla and I went to her friend, Henry’s, party at the Reptile Zoo. She was the only 2nd grade girl invited and she loved getting up close with all the animals!                                 

Watching him feed this gator was a little scary! I know he’s a professional, but wow!
