I think I have decided that out of strawberry, blackberry and blueberry picking--blueberry is the most fun with kids. Matthew and Cameron loved running around with their buckets and I didn't have to worry about them stepping on berries (strawberries) or getting poked (blackberries). Plus I was able to contain Brandon to a stroller (which would not have worked for strawberry picking--at least where we went). And it is pretty obvious for kids to tell when the berries are ripe. What a fun day!

Happy Birthday Emma
8.21.2012
Emma got a life jacket for her birthday and she loves swimming so we met up at Scott Lake to play in the water during the day. Then we headed back to her house for presents and cake in the evening.

Boeing Picnic
8.18.2012
Scott's dad works for Boeing and every year his division has a picnic for employees and their families. And we got to join in on the fun. Lots of food, games and crafts for the kids.

kiddie pool
8.17.2012
We had some friends over for an afternoon of fun. The kids had a great time playing in the water, which gave us moms a chance to sit in the shade and talk. It has been great getting to make new friends in the Olympia area.
And here's Cameron with his signature pose. Won't this boy ever admit he has to go to the bathroom and just go!

Ocean Shores Camping
We had a great time camping at Ocean City State Park. Hannah, Melissa and Sam (Melissa's boyfriend) were able to drive out from Utah to join in on the fun. We missed you Dallin and Paola!
