Visiting Sarah Beth, Uncle Todd and Chess on Camano Island

On Saturday we headed up to Stanwood to visit Uncle Todd, Sarah Beth and Chess. We hung around the house for a bit. Sarah Beth brought Declan a bow tie! It's so cute!

Later we headed to the beach to enjoy the waves and the sunshine. It was very warm and we ate lunch together.

Uncle Todd and Chess brought down the boat and the guys headed out with the crab pots. It was Declan's first time on the boat and he loved it. Not so sure he loved the life jacket, though! 

Music in the Park

For our fourth music in the park adventure the Linn's, Grospe's, Grammy, Pop and Elias joined us. The music wasn't great, but it was still fun. We danced and wiggled to the music and then we went swimming in the lake!

Elias took off his hat so Declan put it on!

A first birthday party!

August 3rd was Elias's first at Legion Park in Everett. It was a beautiful sunny day for cupcakes and delicious food. Declan loved watching Elias open his birthday gifts and sharing his gifts with him. The boys LOVED riding in the little red wagon from Great Nana.
