Happy short week (and happy belated birthday, USA)! I hope everyone had a nice holiday weekend and off to a great July (holllllly smokes). As always when with family, we had a great weekend celebrating with my brother and his family in Seattle. The only bad news was that Ken was unable to fly out as planned due to a storm on Friday night in NYC. After 4 hours on the tarmac and his flight being canceled, he sadly didn’t make it to the west coast. We missed him but will be reunited with him for 10 days on Friday! Here is a recap of our weekend!
We went sailing in the evening on Lake Washington (pictured: son Cruzzie, brother Giora).
Another night, we went swimming and paddle boarding (Pictured: Cruzzie and cousin, Alagna)
Lots of biking with the young girls in the trailer. Pictured, Toosh age 4 and cousin Nadia, also age 4.
Best buds, Cruzzie 6.75 years old and Alagna, 8. And yes, GO WILD.
Lots of cuddle time with dog, Romeo. I want to adopt Romeo and take him home with me. He is my best friend now.
More swimming.
More biking (see a trend?) Pictured; Giora, Axel, Tata, Cruzzie and Alagna.
Rock climbing
Hiking on Marsh Island in Seattle (super close to my brother’s house)
Floating bridges and lily pads
Family of hikers
Risk seekers: reaching out to the water to get a flower.
Green and more green
Monet?
I love the PNW
4th of July block party. Started at 8:45 am and ended at 8:45 pm
Hulla hoops, pie eating contests, four square. What is not to love?
Relay races
Cousins helping each other out.
Now today we are headed back to Eugene, for an even shorter week due to an upcoming trip to CA on Friday morning (two days of our camp / normal Oregon routine)….Thanks to my Proskurowski family for a terrific weekend. We love you and already miss you! See you in a couple of weeks.
Welcome to the Emerald City! Hope you had a good stay.
Happy 4th! It looks like you had a great weekend. I love all of the Pacific Northwest coverage in the summer!
