Sayings of the Wise

Last week we took a trip to Eastern Washington and spent three days with our friends Ben and Sharla and their kids and Phil and Rachel at a great cabin overlooking Lake Roosevelt. It was a great time for all with good food, fun times at the lake, fireworks, star gazing and playing games all day.

Here's Nora and me in the inflatable boat. Ben and I pushed the kids back and forth in it to each other.

Water battles with spray guns happened quite often.

All the kids played in the sand.

Lucas loved climbing the sand hill.

On the way home, Nora fell asleep in the car. When she woke up, she muttered (in the style of Alladin) "who disturbs my slumber?"

That night we went to the fireworks in Edmonds. The kids loved them and Nora didn't even use her earplugs. After they were done, Nora yelled, "Thanks for coming! Bye, bye!"

The 5th was our anniversary (8 years!) and the kids spent the day at the Roe's. When we picked them up we kept asking what they had done all day. Finally, Lucas had enough and said, "what else do you think we did? Pick chicken plants?"

Summer is upon us in full swing....
