The Light and the Guns

On a three day weekend we made a day trip to Whidbey island where we visited Fort Casey State Park. It was a HOT day and the park offered a really nice breeze as we walked through the fortifications and enjoyed the sweeping views of the Olympic Mountains. 

Lucie travelled very well and enjoyed the trip with us.

Admiralty Head Lighthouse is now an interpretive center and gift shop. What a cute design!


After a history lesson the kiddos enjoyed fresh water in Deer Lake.

While Lucie chilled on the beach with mommy.

A little walk along the coast after a good dinner!


 The winner takes all!

 God's glory!

And give your little sister a ride, too.
