Happy 4th of July!

We had a fun weekend with Bo and Sadie (Lisa and Papa too)! We went down to watch the Woodway parade which is the fire truck, a police officer and families walking/biking/strolling, etc. Basically people. There was some candy tossed and I had to defend Max from a flying Tootsie Roll. It was a close one!

Everyone loves a parade! Waiting though, not so much.

Max was a little afraid of the sirens!

Wavin' his flag all over the neighborhood.

Self-imposed prison

Max, for some weird reason, loved to climb under the stools at grandma and grandpa's house. After getting stuck once we moved it off of him and he just crawled back inside. I guess he liked being locked up!

Fun in Lynden... is that even possible?

Of course it is... so long as you know the right peeps! We recently retuned from our big summer trip to the Pacific Northwest and North Idaho. We spent a few days in Lynden, Wa. visiting some very good friends from our time in the Navy. Lynden is a Dutch community so we had a lot of fun taking pictures at the local gift shop. The weather was wonderful and we spent most of our days outside playing with Max and the Veltkamp kiddos.

Curtis and I make pretty cute dutch folks.

Woah crazy hair!
So nice and green here. Note that I'm wearing a sweatshirt... in June! This is so not Texas

Splash Park!

With temps reaching 100 degrees here we are looking for ways to cool off this summer. We were invited to the splash park today to play with Anne & Jamijn and Jessica & Luca. Max had a lot of fun in the water. Thanks for the invite and we are looking forward to doing this again soon!

Feeding ducks!

Fun in the Cozy Coup

Max loves his new car! I can hardly get him out of it!

Check out the teeth!

First time to eat corn on the cob...

and I'm sure it tasted so much better since it was MY corn to begin with!
