Fall Happenings

We have been having a wonderful fall here! The sun is shining most of the time and the rain is still holding back a little bit. We are easing it into homeschooling and enjoying outdoors as much as we can.

Hiking is our family favorite and we feel so blessed being able to do that! 
Here are a few pics from our hike to Fragrance Lake.










YES on I-522!!!




 Enjoying real "fair food".




Lucie is growing up! She talks more and more and can run! 



A bike ride along Lake Whatcom. Sofia is doing so great without training wheels.

Happy Fall!!! Family photos coming soon! Stay tuned!

You walk a dog every day. Twice a day. Three times a day. And you cannot wait to do it again the next day. Because you are THREE and you LOVE dogs.  And you hold your grandparents hand and it feels so much better than looking at them through cold computer screen.   And you are 12 and you get to ride a go cart out in the field. And give your little sister a ride, too.
