Fireworks!

Sharing some pictures from our 4th of July adventure. We packed up a picnic with our friends, loaded up onto their boat, and parked in Lake Union waiting for the fireworks show that is shot from a barge in Lake Union. The first picture is Emmy & Heidi with the little girl from a couple of boats over (we were tied together so that we could use their bathroom - although it ended up not working). The second picture is Ben & Andy waiting for the fireworks to start.

Finally, around 10 pm the fireworks started. It was a great show & I took lots of pictures. What a great way to watch the fireworks -- better than sitting on the rocks for hours (right Mom & Carolyn?).

Birthday Celebrations

HELLO and welcome back!! I have no excuses for our absence, but I'll try to get more pictures coming.

We have been celebrating our birthdays over the past month. For my birthday, Jim & Jo were visiting. We were able to go to a couple of baseball games, do a little shopping, and (of course) eat a lot! My friend Heidi also made a birthday cake for me so I had a double celebration.

For Brandon's birthday, we went out to eat tapas with a group of friends. For dessert, we walked down to 'Cupcake Royale' and had cupcakes (with one candle, of course).

Stay tuned for more summer adventures and Happy 4th of July!
