Cowboy Boston

When Avery got her first pair of Cowboy boots, Boston was so excited! Every time he would see them he wanted to put them on. At first he had troubles and I would have to help him, but now he's pretty good at gettin those suckers on. He trots around the house for hours with them on. They're about 4 sizes to big for him, but he does pretty good in them. Isn't he a cutie?

Seattle

One of my favorite places to visit is Seattle, Washington. It is so beautiful. Kevin's parents own a home on Bonnie Lake right on the lake. It is so awesome to go there during the Fourth of July because you can see every one's fireworks around the lake. This year the whole Morris Family came and we had lots of fun. We went tubing down the river, went water skiing, barbecued and overall just had a great time.

At Grandma Alice's House
While we were in Washington we were able to go see Kevin's Grandma, Alice at her home. She is such a sweet lady. We always enjoy her company when we are there.


Tubing on the river
We had so much fun as a group tubing down the river. It was a little cold when you got in the water but it didn't bother us.











Mats Mats
Kevin's grandparents own a small home in mats mats. You can go clam digging on their property. They also have Donkeys named Daisy and ----------. All the kids loved feeding them. It is such a fun little hideaway.

Vancouver/Whistler getaway

When we decided to go to Seattle to meet the Morris family for the 4th of July we wanted to take a little trip with our family to see Vancouver and Whistler. I am so glad we made the decision to do that because it was awesome. Vancouver was a fun little town with cute shops and a beautiful park. They also have extension bridges you can go on that are amazing. Whistler was our favorite part and if we did the trip all over again I would want to stay in Whistler longer. We were there for just two days. On your way there from Whistler you take the sea to sky highway. You are literally by the ocean and when you hit Whistler you are at 7000 feet. The views are amazing and there are so many outdoor things to do. We took a bike ride with our kids and then we took a tram up into the mountains and hiked up there. It was fantastic.


Avery and I decided to get Henna tattoos. They lasted about four days.
Boston tried on a hats at a little hat shop. He's just happy to be here.

Who doesn't like a good bike ride?
This was in where the tram drops you off, so your adventure starts here
This is at the top of the mountain we hiked up to.
Avery thought this "rock house" as she put it was so cool.

These were taken on the extension bridges.
