Our bub

Hazel built a house

Then she invited Grandma Linda to the open house

Boom!

Independent reading + abundant sunshine

Colorful blobs

Tools of the trade

Tall wall for the big ball

Biking and running at home

Happy birthday Supey! Happy milkshake mustache Landry!

Hazel’s answer to Landry’s milkshake mustache

Posturing before a kick

Struggling/snuggling together to play a challenging game

We saw at least a dozen herons at Nisqually

And seven basking snakes

Thankfully there were few enough people

For (intermittently) lax masking

Not a soul in sight

We set up the tent in our backyard yesterday

It was a playroom

And a playground (Landry’s preferred entry method…)

These kids are full of sleeping bag hijinks

We roasted marshmallows on the grill

We read bedtime stories here

Ultimately the kids decided to sleep inside

Better luck next time

Today marked our triumphant return to so-called Seagull Island, during a negative tide, WITH water shoes!

Dreams do come true

After rattling a rock stuck inside this empty clam shell, Landry called it “nature’s musical instrument.”

Also overheard, “now that’s the work of a dogwell if I’ve ever seen it!” She was reacting to a small hole in a shell.

This is Tickles the hermit crab

Victorious pea harvester!

Happy Independence Day!

We started with a bike ride

And our first “only feet can touch the playground” romp (totally successful)

Smelling the roses

Sipping the lemonade

Our distant stations
