take a trip | lake Padden

Last Tuesday we headed to Lake Padden.

We are having another week of hot sunny weather!

This week my mom joined us and Michelle brought along two friends!

I am loving all this summer fun we have been having.

Looking forward to it sticking around until September hopefully!

take a trip | Lake Samish

Once a week my sister in law and I plan an outing 

for us and the kiddos to go on! One of their favorite places 

is Lake Samish. We were able to go twice last year {last years trip}

They love walking a ways around the lake and jumping off a fishing dock

into the water. This year wanted to live summer to its fullest jumped in too

and swam in the lake!  I didn't get nibbled at by any fish or attacked by

any green plants growing at the bottom. I am not really a huge swimmer

but I am glad I decided to get in the water.  

 

Fun in the sun | play date field trip

Tuesday I organized our first field trip of the summer break!

I won free pass to perch and play for the month of June.

I want to take full advantage of it so got some friends together to go check it out.

I was also watching Cohen and Ezzy that day so they got to come along too.

We planned to stay for about an hour but the kids had fun playing for 

a little over two hours! Ezzy even took a snuggle nap with while they played.

After lunch we all headed over to Boulevard Park for lunch and more play time.

This was actually our first time here too! It is nice because they made a sandy area,

there is the beach, grass areas to sit, play ground and woods coffee!  

Definitely have to come again this summer!

The kids could have played all day but about 2 'o clock we headed home
so the younger kiddos could still get in a nap!

It was a super fun way to start off our first full week of summer break!

take a trip Tuesday

On Tuesday Christine and I took the kids on their last field trip of the summer.

We had promised them earlier on that we would return to Lake Samish 

so they could jump off the dock again!

Michelle was able to bring a friend along again.

It was a wonderful afternoon at the lake and a perfect way to end summer break.

Take a trip Tuesday

This Tuesday we headed to Larrabee for some exploring fun.

The kids had a brochure with a beach scavenger hunt on it.

They set off together to find as many of the items as they could.

Josiah came back with a dead crab and Jordan a dead fish 

so we quickly checked them out and had them return the

critters back to the water.

This super cute picture of the kids Christine took!

The kids mostly wanted to find a dock to jump off.

We had to walk about half the lake but we did end up finding one.
