Happy Birthday Darrick!

I helped the kids make these videos for Daddy.  Sorry they are sideways...I didn't realize I was holding the camera the wrong way...duh!

Howarth Park

We are back in WA and the sun is shining.  The temperature has been beautiful-between 70 and 75.  It is amazing how much our yard and the weeds grew in 3 weeks.  I have been working in the yard every day.  This afternoon I thought it would be great to take the kids on an outing to a park that is about 5 minutes driving from our house.  It is called Howarth Park.
Once you park the car you have to walk down stairs, to a bridge that goes over railroad tracks, down a spiral staircase to the beach.  Once there we had a great time!

On the spiral staircase overlooking Puget Sound.

We had a great view of Everett Naval Station

Bathing Beauty

The boys spent most of their time looking for crabs.

They used a shell to pick it up

This is one of many they caught

Searching

Proud of his catch

One of their treasures
