Sunny Summer Days

Summer has finally arrived! We have had a Seattle summer this past June. Lots of rainy days, intermittent with sunny warm days here and there. As for me, I like it. Being the Seattle/Washington gal I am, I truly enjoy a good rainy day. I like a few rainy days in a row, followed by a nice sunny day so that I could get out and see the sun occasionally. Once the heat hits, phew! I find myself trying to find sanctuary in air conditioned venues! But Shad, Owen, and I have recently taken advantage of the sunny days/weekends we've been having here lately:

- We've taken nice leisure walks in the park.

- Walked the downtown Riverfront Park, and enjoyed the Mirabeau and Spokane Falls.

- Introduced Owen to the green grass... which he LOVED. It was hilarious.

And most recently this past Saturday we ventured over to Farragut State Park in Idaho, with some good friends. We had a delicious BBQ over there, and spent the day relaxing by the lake. It was excellent.

Owen loves Kristi, she can always calm him down:

Little Harrison enjoyed playing in the (FREEZING!) Lake:

Family pic, not sure what Shad is doing here! But we're all rockin' the sunglasses!

Just cute, he's a happy baby:

Owen has now gained an appreciation for grass, trees, lakes, and waterfalls. He loves going on little nature walks with us in his stroller, front carrier, or carried around by mom and dad. And we love introducing him to the world around him. Its so fun watching him discover new things everyday, and squeal in delight at new people and things. Its been awesome having Shad around more often and we love these lazy summer days!

What have you all been up too??
