Trevor's birthday at the zoo

We took Trevor to the zoo for his birthday. We met his cousins Julie and Jessie briefly and then continued our search for the animals. The most captivating for Trevor were the fish in the aquarium. (They were the easiest for him to see.) Toward the end of our visit at the zoo Trev got a second wind and loved the petting zoo, sprinkler/play ground, and last but not least the carousel.

Lawn progress

We are patiently waiting for our lawn to grow in and for plants to go on sale/clearance to beef up the yard a little. We are learning a great deal of patience. Our garden however is taking off and looking good.

Memorial Weekend

Erik and I took a quick day date to Snoqualmie Falls to celebrate our wedding anniversary. We got some shopping in at the outlet mall and hit up Small Fryes in Fall City for a burger and shake. The falls were very busy with tourists, the mall had lots of great deals, and the burger joint had a long wait. Over all we had a good time together reminiscing about our past and dreaming up the future.

The tide was out at Redondo and we took Trevor to the beach. He had fun digging in the sand and wading his feed in the water. He had the most fun playing with his dad at a near by park going down the slide and climbing through plastic tubes. We topped it off with an ice cream at Costco. (It seems like McDonald's is on every block until you want an ice cream cone on a hot day and you can't find one in site.)
