Whidbey Island


Last month we went to Whidbey Island with the Lower clan.  
It was a beautiful ferry ride from north of Seattle.

The house was perfect.  It was large enough for all of us and had a treehouse and swings.


The view was incredible!  

We made friends with the cows and bulls.  
This little guy was my favorite.

Ellis and Reed had a blast on the swings.

The cousins had so much fun hanging together.

The adults also had fun hanging together.
There were so many trails around the property.  
We went for several beautiful hikes.


One day we hit the Loganberry Festival.    It was COLD and RAINY!  
However, we still had a great time.
Ellis, Reed and Emma entered a pie eating contest.

Ellis came in second (to the large guy on the right!).  
We are so proud!  :)

Morning snuggle with Nana.
The dads took the kids out for a ATV ride.  
(Against the mom's pleadings)
Kiley giggled the entire ride.
Ellis also had a blast!
Or annual Lower photo.  Another successful Lower trip....
