The Lake

It was really warm yesterday, so we decided to take a drive out to the lake. We found our own little private beach on the shoreline and stayed for a couple of hours wading in the still freezing water and digging in the rocks.

Nap Time

Lately Dexter has taken to sleeping with Mason. It's really cute to see them snuggle together.

Day Hike and Picnic

Last Sunday we took a day hike to Marymere Falls. The day was beautiful, as was the waterfall. Mason loves going in his backpack and seeing all the sights. We took a side trail and had lunch down by a creek. Afterward, Mason and Keith amused themselves by playing on some logs and throwing rocks in the water. Mason even found a prehistoric cell phone!

Camping

We took Mason on his first camping trip this last weekend. Mason and I had given Keith a new tent for Father's Day, so we took it out to Salt Creek camp ground for a test run. Mason loved taking Daddy by the hand and leading him down the trail to see the water.

This area is pretty famous for its tidepools, so we walked down early Sunday morning to check out the sea creatures. There were tons of little crabs that at first scared Mason, but by the time we left he liked watching and touching them. We forgot to bring the camera down with us, so no pics.

The weather was beautiful and I'm certain that we'll be making a few more trips out there to camp this summer.

Bathing Beauties

We couldn't have picked a better playmate for Mason than Dexter. Mason loves to share bathtime with his kitty, and Dex doesn't mmind as long as Mason doesn't make the bath into a wave pool.

Uncle Cris and Grannie Visit

We're a little late with our postings, but here are some pics from when my mom and brother came out to visit. We took them to Hurricane Ridge (of course-- it's Keith's favorite place) and to the Olympic Game Farm. Thanks for coming out to visit guys! We hope to see you soon!!
