through the woods to grandpa's house...

This past Sunday we made a trip up north to Bellingham to visit Ethan's grandpa and help him celebrate his birthday. It is pretty fun to be able to take my son to visit my childhood home and nearby Lake Padden. The weather was nice to us and we were able to walk down to the lake, feed the ducks, go to the playground, and take Bindi to the off leash park. Ethan also got the experiment with playing the drums as well.

Happy birthday grandpa!!!

Driving North.

This past weekend while Jeff was at the Seahawk's game Ethan and I decided to go and visit my dad up north in Bellingham. We had arrived around lunch time and we all headed to Win's Drive-In for some burgers and fries. We also indulged in a fresh banana shake as well. It was fun to take Ethan there since that is a place that I worked at in High School and it has not really changed too much.

After lunch we stopped at Lake Padden so Ethan could work off his shake on the playground. We were only able to stay a few minutes since the weather turned pretty chilly. We had a great day hanging with my dad or as Ethan calls him Pe-pah.
