Ladies Craft Night

My sister-in-law, Michelle started a ladies craft night last month. We plan on getting together once a month to do a fun craft that one of us comes up with, or just work on whatever crafty thing we want to. This is what we made this month. The star is made out of paper that we spray painted. How cool is that? I love it! And best of all, it's my first fourth of July decoration.

Pudget Sound

Our boys have been asking to go to the beach since the snow melted and we promised we would take them to the beach when the weather improved. While in the Seattle area, we made good on that promise. We were really close to the Puget Sound, so we went to the State Park located there.










We also took a walk down the path...



The view...



There was also a play area along the path...



LOOK! I got all six kids in the same picture!
Bill found a new crab friend. He really wanted to take him home with him, but Julia said "NO"!

Point Defiance Zoo & Aquarium


This past weekend we took a trip over to Seattle for my brother's wife's baby shower. We headed over the day before the shower so we could go to the Zoo. We debated between Woodland Zoo and Point Defiance Zoo. We ended up going to Point Defiance. The weather wasn't the greatest. Raining off and on all day, but the whole time we were there it didn't rain hard, just sprinkled. That worked well for us because there weren't very many other people at the zoo.
