Lummi Island

I have to admit, the day after neighborhood fire extravaganza, I was happy to board a plane to mild Western Washington weather...

These pictures are exactly backwards, but what's a girl to do? There is nothing better than cousin time on a dock. Oh wait, yes there is... This backyard. The Foster's vacation backyard is quite breathtaking...

Oh Max. We could snuggle with this boy for days on end... And we did!

I often times see my brother in Aidan's face. Yep, there's a resemblance!

And these two. Seriously, could they look more like twins? They don't see it, but the rest of the world sure does. Such sweet buddies.

So many games, so little time. And that view from the front yard? Stunning.

UW mask taped beer. Don't ask.

So, so tired from so much fun.

Lummi Island highlight #1, riding around in the back of a truck. Island living for the win!

We're on a boat! Cruising through the San Juans... Porpoises greeted us, as did seals. Incredibly cool. 

Hope for the future. Dancing machines!

If you are looking for Max, look for Aidan. You'll find him there. Oh how I love that boy (and his sisters!)

Legos in the back of the truck? Yes, please!

Hiking on the beach was a hit...

Idaho kids get especially excited about sea-life...

Prior to venturing up north, we met up with Mema and Papa for some high flying fun. It ended up being a little more complicated that I envisioned, but the Kearney kids did great!

We even got some Lake Washington beach time at Mema and Papas! Mema and her boy, so sweet!

Jon is resting up to ride the Tour de France again... I think Morgan will be there in spirit. Creeper!

These two. 

Annnddd, again with the ifly.

That's our girl!

For some reason the rental car agency let us pick whatever car we wanted. So many choices... And the kids picked this! 

Super, duper excited at 6 a.m. 

And we flew over Mike Reindeer on the anniversary of the "big climb!" Glad that's over with!

We have some budding photogs in the fam....

'Murica. Happy Fourth from the Kearneys! From the looks we got while cruising in the Charger, Ryan commented, "I don't think people like you in this car." Apparently, I didn't look as "cool" as I thought I did. Regardless, a fantastic weekend, filled with such great fun!
