Memorial Day on the Lake

We spent most of Monday on Lake Sammamish. A couple from our church ownes this amazing house right on the lake 2 doors down from Luke Ridnour who plays for the Sonics. We were there from about 12:15-8pm. There were probably 20 people their, all of us having a great time. During the beginning of the day the weather was a mixed bag, but toward the evening it was sunny, clear, and warm. I took Ethan out on the ski boat and he loved it. He watched a friend, Treencee ski for quite a long time. I later took Ethan on their turbocharged Polaris jet ski. Man, this thing was literally like a sportbike on the water. Later I went out without Ethan and I got it up to 70 mph. That's fast on the water! We all had a great time. Jude spent a good part of the day with all of the other kids in the separate home theater. And yes, this was a real home theater. Amazing to say the least.

"A Grand Day Out!"

For those of you who know Wallace and Grommit, you'll know this title! It wasn't quite a trip to the moon for cheese, but we had fun anyways.



Adam had the day off work, and we decided to go into the city. Adam had to visit his store so we went to the park right behind his work. It was funny to think about while we were there, but the boys don't get the chance to play in the sand box, pretty much ever! New parks just don't have them any more... to dirty I guess! But isn't that what kids are supposed to be? Well, they had a blast, digging, building sand castles and the occasional throwing of the sand! (I put a stop to that! Mean mama!)

You may not be able to see it, but Jude is pointing to his sand castle! Ahh to be young and excited about a pile of dirt!

After the park we went down to Alki Beach which is just down the street from Adam's work. The tied was out pretty far, so it made a spit you could walk out on. Adam took his chances and went out to the end, even though the tide was coming in. Adam and the boys had their fun looking at all the motorcycles going by on the road! I just sat back and relaxed while they played.

We can't wait for more sunny days like this one! Summer is almost here! On Monday, the boys and I are driving down to Uncle Kurt's. Hopefully Sarah and Cosmos will be able to join us! Be waiting for fun pictures from his house... until then, toodles!
