baseball.beach.fair.cousins.zoo

it's been a busy month for us.... jonathan has been working a lot so we've been trying to get out and have some fun so we don't miss him too much! as the title says we've gone to a couple baseball games, the beach, the fair, visited with cousins, and gone to the zoo. makes me tired just thinking about it! but we've had a blast!

BASEBALL
by far our favorite summer activity.... i think we're up to 10 games so far this season, 6 mariner games and 4 rainier games!

pa and adam. blake and auntie marilyn.


typical scene at the game.


BEACH
i can't believe we didn't spend ALL summer here!? we went the other week with some friends and had a great time, blake loved the sand and water and of course his friend ella!

just chillin


adam LOVES being outside


blake and his friend ella

FAIR
we hit up the lynden fair with cousins blaine and isla! the fair holds a special place in my heart because it was where jonathan took me on our first date :o) so we try to go every year... plus my sister in laws are crazy fair people, so i get sucked in! (i secretly love it)

blaine and blake
blaine showing blake the ropes (i think that was her 2nd or 3rd trip that week)

the reptile tent was a HIT, they both loved the turtles!

COUSINS
my cousins melissa and steph and her two kids raelee and finnley (i hope i spelled that right!) came to visit last week. they live in oregon so we don't get to see them as much, but the kids had a great time together.

two cuties... fin is 9 months, adam is 5


raelee and blake watching lion king together

ZOO
last week my dad came up to visit and took us all to the woodland park zoo! what an awesome zoo... too bad we only saw like 1/8th of it! a couple reasons: the zoo is huge, i forgot my stroller, and we didn't know it closed at 6... we got there at 4:30! we'll definitely have to go back, but we loved what we did see!

my handsome boy!

pa and his boys


blake and mufasa (the lion from lion king... all lions are mufasa)

my poor dad had to wrangle blake most of the time, so he ended up like this, easier than chasing a 2 year old around i guess!

adam LOVES this.... (apparently i did too as a baby, like mommy like son!)
i wonder what september will bring!?

You had a great summer! We didn't make it to any baseball games, or to the beach or to the zoo... we are way behind you! Cute photos of really cute boys!

I'm glad you've had such a fun summer. I can't believe it's almost over! I love that picture of you and Blake -- so cute. So is the one of Blake and Blaine.
