On Friday we went to Dash Point beach. The tide was out so there was lots of sand for playing and digging. The water was too cold for the adults to get in, but that didn’t stop the girls. Jason wasn’t so sure about getting sand on his feet. Notice how he trying to walk on his heels.
Abigail found a dead crab that had taken quite a beating…
Carly enjoyed playing in the sand the most
Saturday was our community social/BBQ and since it’s paid for with our annual dues we go each year. The girls had lots of fun running around with their friends. Abigail and her good buddy from pre-school won the three legged race. (Granted there were only two or three other, and younger competitors)
Abigail was in the running to win the potato sack race too, but she jumped a bit too high and took a tumble.
On Sunday we invited the family over to celebrate Jason’s first birthday. It was getting late after dinner so we decided to wake Jason up (of course) for cake.
He wasn’t sure what to make of it at first…
He finally took a few bites…
But his interest didn’t last long…
The gifts were much more exciting for Jason. The excitement from his sisters and cousins combined with hearing the fun noises from his new toy Grandma Fletcher gave him had Jason squealing with delight.
He’s a pro at pushing his new toy all over the house and has mastered all the noise making buttons. It’s hilarious to watch him stop and dance along… so cute!
Yesterday we ate dinner along the boardwalk at Alki Beach in Seattle. After dinner we walked along the beach and enjoyed the beautiful surroundings. It’s been two years since we’ve been to Alki Beach.

This is the girls trying to reenact the “flying on the beach” pictures we took in 2006.

The girls have changed so much in two years!

Love the frog cake. You did a great job on it!
Looks like you're having loads of fun. Fantastic job on the cake. I'm sure Mom was proud. At least we learned one thing from her good cooking - how to make desserts; including frosting cakes!
Wow, did you make that cake? You are an artist! My kids are going to get the shaft in the cake department, I have no idea how to do that. Your girls really are growing up fast, it is crazy how much difference 2 years makes.
That's a great shot of you girls at the beach. I love the frog cake, Wow! It would be hard for me to cut it.
