Seafair

Seafair was last weekend here in Seattle. For those of you who don't know, Seafair is basically a summer celebration that Seattle puts on with hydroplane races and an awesome show from the Blue Angels. The problem is that the big show and races are always on Sunday. So, for my whole life, living in Seattle, I've never been to it. Crazy, huh? We do get to enjoy the Blue Angels for a couple days before that though, when they are practicing. So, on Thursday I took our kiddos out to the beach where I knew we would be able to watch them put on a little show for us. It was so cool to have them so close. They flew low and right over the beach. Very fun!

We also did some swimming, of course. The goal for Parker, the whole time, was to make a big hole in the sand and put water in it. Don't know why, but he worked so hard to make it. He half way did it. It turned out ok. Some little girl next to us made a huge one and Collin took a swim in hers more than once. She was nice enough to let him. Maybe next time, now that Parker has had some practice, he'll be able to reach his goal a little better...

I now realize that most of these pictures are of the boys! Didn't mean to. Sorry, Sam!
