More fun in the backyard

Blake helping fill up the bucket

The pot of water was a bigger hit than the big bucket....
...however, Louis' water dish was the most fun of all.

Dog Days of Summer

These pictures are actually from last weekend, when the weather was above 60 degrees! We tried to keep cool by taking a trip to Lk. Sammamish State Park. I am pretty sure the last time I was there I was 17 years old and there were probably around 12 girls piled into my car. This time it was just Blake and I, with all of his stuff piled into my car.
Blake liked the sand and the lake, but mostly he liked visiting with the other people at the beach. He kept walking over to a group of little girls near us and getting their towels all sandy :)

Blake and Lou

This past week Blake starting throwing the ball for Louis. Typically I have to wrestle the ball out of Lou's mouth and try to get him to sit, etc. Notice in the pictures below, Louis is doing everything he is supposed to do - for Blake! Nice that Louis minds Blake better than he minds me! Oh well, at least he is good for someone around here...

A day at Vashon

Blake and I decided to take a day off from unpacking and visit Kristy at her cabin on Vashon. We had a great day!





We're back!


After a birthday party, wedding, baby shower and our move to Bellevue, I finally found a moment to post a couple of pictures. I love our new house, Blake has much more room to move around which is great because he is walking everywhere! Blake doing a little unpacking, he is always so helpful!
Playing in our new backyard.
