We went to the movie theater for Barbie today

And Landry gobbled up Grandma’s blackberry pie

We saw Ollie today!

Who is THIS unidentifiable man of mystery?

Later: backyard pool in a golden glow

Reusable water balloon bonanza!

Lego sorting with two kitties

Hazel is back at sailing camp, this time in a two-handed boat (here attending to the boat on the far left — dark lifejacket with light long sleeves)

Rolling the sail with today’s sailing partner

He caught me watching him watch

Scenes from the last week

Airport burger

Airport slice

New tricks on an old playground

Everyone is chipping in to get this baby back to full health

Blackberries are ripening at Titlow!

Very berry shrug

Extraordinary furstripe

Extraordinary fursplotch

Lovely little stroll through the woods. Stream crossings were surprisingly easy

Landry led the way, there and back

And ultimately we had the Cascades area to ourselves

Later: a little thunder in the distance? Ok, we’ll josh around on top of the water instead of within it

We’re swimming every day here

The kids are experimenting with floating, sinking, bubbles…

Wacky positions

And are also staying cool

We celebrated a kind of modified Sibling Day with relatives

Lots of cousins, aunts and nieces in the group, too, including those snapping some of these great photos!

Friends for every generation!

Plus these two furscruffs

We love them

We welcomed friends to the lake! Two for the grownups

And one for the kids

There was joyful synchronized jumping

(Making a splash!)

Paddleboarding under smoky skies

And picnicking on the deck

But wait! The blue skies returned

For these independent kids to SUP in style
