Red & Pink

A few flowers that were new to the garden this year, plus a little silly girl with a popsicle stained mouth :)

Dock Butte Hike

About a month ago, we went for a lovely hike to the top of Dock Butte. From there we had an almost (some haze) 360 view of the North Cascades including Mt. Baker, Twin Sisters, and Mt. Shuksan. Ada made the whole 3 mile round trip hike with little complain (1400 ft. incline on the way up plus an added mile to see Blue Lake). She is turning into one great hiker.

Point Defiance Zoo

A memorable outing in July was spent with Todd’s family at the zoo. We always enjoy getting to see family, even if only for a day.

Ada really loved the animal show! We asked her what her favorite thing was of the day, and that was it, especially when they brought out a skunk (no photo though) :)
