The summer is almost over, the kids are almost back in school, and you might think that we spent the whole summer doing absolutely nothing, since that is what I've posted:) It seems as the kids get bigger, our outings get more intense, frequent, and ongoing.
For the third year in a row, my friend and I committed to dedicating each Tuesday during the summer to taking the kids on a weekly adventure. We let the kids each choose an activity that they've always wanted to do and we scheduled them into our Tuesday outings. We went to Snoqualmie Falls (Nate's choice), Point Defiance Zoo & Aquarium (K's choice), and the Scratch Patch (Nicole's choice). We also committed to spending every Wednesday in the summer to the Grandmas and we've gone on many adventures with them too:) The kids have loved every moment of it.
We've also gone to the beach for nine days, to Grandpa's house (over in eastern Washington), and on several hikes. Amanda has gone to the fair with her best friend, Nicole has gone on a long boat trip with her best friend, and Nate has gone to two Cub Scout camps and to several over night trips with his best friend. We also finally made it to Jetty Island, a little ferry ride from the Everett marina to an island that we can see really well from our house.
I'll post pictures as I get through them. I can't believe how much the kids have grown over the summer!!!
